ARSENAL TALK: Gunners linked with talented striker

SENEGALESE striker Mame Biram Diouf is being targeted by Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

Scouts have been impressed by Diouf's performances where he has scored 15 times in 34 games for his current club FC Molde in Norway.

However, it is not only Arsenal who's attention the 20-year old has attracted, and The Gunners will face stiff competition from Dutch clubs Feyenoord and FC Groningen. West Bromwich Albion and Rud Bull Salzburg have also been linked with the striker.

Wenger will be watching Diouf again before making the decision whether or not to try to sign the player now or at some point in the future.
