Arsenal
have been in search for a striker since the end of the last season but have not
concluded any deal yet.
Arsenal
have been linked with two Marios, Bayern Munich Mario Mandzukic and AC Milan
Mario Balotelli.
Balotelli
who scored the winner for Italy against England last night is on top of Arsene Wenger transfer list, while Croatian striker Mandzukic is also being eyed by Wenger
but has not shown any serious interest in the 28-year-old forward.
Balotelli's only problem is of discipline and may be because of it Wenger might not prefer him while for Mandzukic, he is 28-year-old and have only 2-3 years left which is a negative point for Wenger.
