Wenger sets his sights on Hernandez

Arsenal could be set for a busy January transfer window if reports are to be believed, with the Arsene Wenger's biggest swoop coming in the form of a move for on-fire Javier Hernandez.

According to Sport, the Gunners are lining up an €18 million (£13.2m) offer for the Mexican striker, who has been in sensational form this season.

The forward, not wanted by Louis van Gaal at Manchester United, has scored 19 goals in 22 appearances for Bayer Leverkusen this season - almost as many as the entire United team put together!

Chicharito's form has not gone unnoticed in north London, with Wenger seemingly keen to sign competition and cover for his only fit out-and-out striker, Olivier Giroud.

Arsenal are also thought to be keen on signing a defensive midfielder after Francis Coquelin was hit by injury, with Mohamed Elneny from FC Basel and Porto's Danilo Pereira the two players targeted.
