Arsenal are one of six Premier League clubs looking at Inter Milan talent Martin Satriano. The Uruguayan striker is yet to make his debut for the Serie A giants, but has still caught the eye with his form in the reserves. Arsenal fans have reacted to the reports they could get Satriano.

Satriano, 20, has caught the eye despite only featuring on the senior side’s bench on the rare occasion. That is because he is scoring plenty for the Primavera side – netting 14 in 25 league games during 2020-21. Now, The Mail claim Inter may sell him for a cut-price fee this summer.

That has attracted interest from four Premier League clubs – in the form of Arsenal, Tottenham, Everton and West Ham. Manchester City and Chelsea were already linked with the striker, who has a contract with the Nerrazzuri until the summer of 2024. It is unclear what the fee will be.

What are Arsenal fans saying about Satriano?

It is an intriguing summer ahead for the options in the final third at Arsenal. Eddie Nketiah looks as though he will leave, with his Arsenal deal set to expire next summer. Alexandre Lacazette is in a similar position, but there is more hope of a deal being done. Folarin Balogun has signed.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Gabriel Martinelli are better from the left. So a new striker could be required. But one that is so young might not be what Arsenal fans were expecting. Some believe would be good, while others have question why – with Balogun staying at the club.
