ARSENAL target Amauri has hinted he will leave Palermo at the end of season in the hope of playing Champions League football.

The Brazilian striker has caught the eye of Arsene Wenger after scoring 15 league goals this year, although AC Milan and Juventus are also known to be keen admirers.

But Amauri said he will put any decision on hold until the current season finishes.

"The Champions League factor is fundamental in my choice," the 27-year-old told Mediaset.

"I reaffirm that everything will be sorted out after the match with Siena. I'll discuss things with my agent and we will see what concrete options there really are."
