Arsenal 'set to move for towering 6ft 5in Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst' and ready to battle Newcastle for £32m star

Arsenal and Newcastle will reportedly go head-to-head in bids to sign Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst, with the towering 6ft 5in striker valued at £32million.

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta wants to add to his strike-force amid uncertainty over Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette's futures, while the Geordies will look to spend big on revamping their squad should £300m takeover be completed.

According to a report in Bild, the Premier League pair will look to move for the Dutch forward, who has scored 16 goals in 32 appearances for the German side this season.
