Arsenal bid for ‘the new Messi’ – but would he fit in?

Arsenal will be encouraged by their form in the second half of the season, with a superstar signing or two this summer having the potential to turn the Gunners into real contenders next term.

Of the many players linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium, one of the most exciting is Palermo attacker Paulo Dybala.

The Argentine hotshot has lit up Serie A this term with his shows of individualism and goals, with the Stadio Renzo Barbera outfit resigned to losing their prize asset this summer.

In the latest twists in the saga over the 21-year-old’s future, both Dybala and Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini have commented on where the striker will play his football in 2015-16.
