Ahead of the summer transfer window, Arsenal have been keeping tabs on Michael Olise, a Nigeria-eligible forward currently playing for Crystal Palace.
The Daily Mail UK reports that the English Premier League leaders are looking to take advantage of the player’s impressive performances in recent matches, including his recent stunning freekick goal against Manchester United.
With six direct goal involvements (2 goals, 4 assists) this season in eighteen Premier League games, clubs such as Arsenal have been alerted to his potential and are pursuing an opportunity to secure his signature.
Although Olise has a buy-out clause of £35 million within his contract with Palace and is provisionally cap-tied to France, Arsenal could capitalise on his Nigerian roots and grant him an invitation to represent the Super Eagles.
