Arsenal eyeing up Carlos Bacca, Thomas Lemar and Malaga duo Pablo Fornals and Sandro Ramirez after Arsene Wenger pens new two year deal
The Gunners chief is preparing his summer transfer plans and a number of players could be on their way to the Emirates
ARSENAL are already eyeing up summer swoops for FIVE new players after Arsene Wenger penned a new two year deal.
The Gunners boss signed the contract extension yesterday that will keep him at the club until 2019.
And the Mirror are reporting that Wenger is looking at bringing in AC Milan striker Carlos Bacca, Monaco's Thomas Lemar and Malaga pair Pablo Fornals and Sandro Ramirez.
Leicester City star Riyad Mahrez is also on Wenger's radar as he prepares for a busy summer to get his squad back challenging for the title next season.
The Gunners reportedly failed with a bid for Bacca in January but could renew their interest in the experienced hitman.
Bacca, 31, has been linked with a move away from the San Siro after netting 14 times in 34 appearances this season.
The 40-cap Colombian international brings plenty of experience and has found the net regularly in Italy, Spain and Belgium, as well as his homeland.
Lemar's stock has risen after being part of the young Monaco team that made it to the semi-finals of the Champions League and won the Ligue 1 title.
And Wenger could be tempted to raid his former club with Lemar said to be valued at around £25million.
Malaga star Fornals has been touted as a replacement for Santi Cazorla at the Emirates.

Valencia are also interested in the midfielder but reports suggest he is holding off signing for the La Liga club because of Arsenal's interest.
And Fornals' team-mate could also be tempted by a move to North London.
The Barcelona academy graduate – who has 16 goals in 31 matches – has a £5million release clause in his contract.
But they will face competition from Everton and bitter rivals Tottenham for his signature.
