According to a report from the Mail, Arsenal have joined West Ham and Bournemouth in the race for Amiens’ Serhou Guirassy.
The Gunners could potentially be forced into the transfer market for a new striker this summer if things don’t go their way.
Arsenal fans will be hoping that Pierre- Emerick Aubameyang extends his contract. However there is a good chance that he will be sold if he refuses to sign a new deal.

Guirassy has had an impressive campaign for Amiens. But his performances could not help the club avoid relegation from Ligue 1.
That should lower his transfer fee considerably this summer, which could be the biggest reason why clubs are looking to bring him in for cheap in these tough financial times.
Arsenal fans are no strangers to signing relatively unknown players from the French top flight.
The likes of Maroune Chamakh, Olivier Giroud and Yaya Sanogo have constantly had their critics at the Emirates and some fans feel Guirassy could face the same.
