Arsenal Working On Deal To Sign Dominic Solanke From Chelsea

Arsenal are interested in signing England youth-teamer Dominic Solanke from Chelsea in the summer.

The Sun says the Gunners are unlikely to meet his wage demands but will offer him a role in the first team .

The 18-year-old Solanke is on a season-long loan at Eredivisie side Vitesse, for whom he has scored 7 goals in 24 appearances.

Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, is well known for nurturing talents, handing first team opportunities to Nigerian pair Chuba Akpom and Alex Iwobi in recent seasons.

Solanke is under contract with Chelsea until the summer of 2017 and negotiations on a new deal have not been fruitful.
