Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has renewed bid for Super Eagles’ striker, Obafemi Martins, as he is planning to lure the Newcastle player with £15 million.

After seeing his Arsenal side end the season trophy-less once more, Wenger is keen to bolster his squad and the Nigerian striker is apparently top on his wanted list.

Although Arsenal have good options up-front with Emmanuel Adebayor, Robin Van Persie, Eduardo and Nicklas Bendtner all fighting for places, injuries have disrupted their season and Wenger is desperate to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

While Adebayor has had a fantastic season scoring 24 league goals, both Van Persie and Eduardo had faced long spells out due to injuries and Wenger feels an extra cover is needed to solve this problem.
Martins is famed for his blistering pace and also has European experience with former club, Inter Milan, both of which make him an attractive proposition to Arsene Wenger.
However, Newcastle’s manager, Kevin Keegan, who has made keeping Martins’ fellow striker, Michael Owen at St James’ Park his number one transfer priority, is likely to be reluctant to let Martins leave.

Keegan’s new strategy of playing his three strikers-Martins, Viduka and Owen has paid dividends recently and Martins has become an integral part of his squad. But it is believed a move to London would attract the Nigerian and a bid of £15 million may just be enough to tempt Newcastle.

@ibkol

its a pity you cant check out those sources for your self.

I dont really think wenger will buy a striker,i doubt it because he has said his defence is more of concern.I think we need a natural winger in Arsenal and strikers not the problem we have as we have 5 already,let him get ashley young and niko kranjcar then call back carlos vela from spain,
