Arsenal are set to meet with the agent of AS Roma striker Mattia Destro in London this week as the two parties look to thrash out a deal to bring the Italian international to the Emirates Stadium in January, according to reports from the Sun.

Destro has largely been used as a substitute by Roma manager Rudi Garcia so far this season despite an impressive goalscoring ratio at the Stadio Olimpico, potentially persuading him to consider a move away from the Italian capital.
The fact that Arsenal are targeting another striker is intriguing, with Olivier Giroud and Danny Welbeck already on the books, and could indicate that either Lukas Podolski or Joel Campbell could be allowed to leave the club in January.
