Arsenal are interested in taking on-loan AC Milan striker Mattia Destro to the Emirates Stadium next season.

The 24-year-old Italian international joined the Rossoneri on loan from Roma in January, but has failed to make his mark at the club, eventually being displaced in the starting line-up by veteran Giampaolo Pazzini in recent matches.

The Diavoli have the option to make his transfer permanent for 16.5 million at the end of the season, but look increasingly unlikely, due to his unsatisfactory performances.

The Daily Star reports that Destro’s probable return to the Giallorossi will only be a short one, with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger looking to make a bid for the talented front-man.

The Gunners boss believes Destro would be the perfect compliment or competition to Olivier Giroud, and wants to bring him to the Emirates after failing in his previous attempts in the past.

Destro has only netted two goals in 11 matches for Milan since moving in January.
