SHOCKING NEWS: Reports coming from Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal are keen on a January move for the Bayer Leverkusen superstar striker. This might be the first done deal in the Premier League this transfer window as Arsenal representatives are currently in Germany trying to strike a deal with he German team. Arsenal is planning a January raid for an attacker who has contributed 24 goals so far this year.
Victor Boniface, a striker for Bayer Leverkusen, is someone Arsenal is keen to acquire in January.
