Dries Mertens' has an impressive form for Napoli which hasn't gone unnoticed at the Emirates Stadium, with Arsenal keeping a close eye on the Belgian as a potential replacement for Alexis Sanchez maybe for January transfer.
According to the Daily Mirror, the Gunners wanted to sign Mertens in the summer following his 34-goal haul in Italy, but the 30-year-old decided to sign a new deal at the Stadio San Paolo.
Mertens' contract reportedly includes a tempting buyout clause of just €30 million, however, which is likely to persuade Arsene Wenger to follow up his interest.
Liverpool are also thought to be keen admirers of a forward who has already hit six goals in five Serie A matches this season.
