Arsenal are in talks to sign Deportivo La Coruna striker Lucas Perez, sources close to the club have told ESPN FC.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been in the market for attacking reinforcements all summer, seeing moves for Leicester City's Jamie Vardy and Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette fall through.
