Arsenal fans are keen to see the club sign Celtic forward Edouard

Several Arsenal fans have reacted positive to a report linking the club with a summer move for Odsonne Edouard.

Mirror Sport claim that the Gunners are keen on a summer transfer for the French striker, who will reportedly cost around £50million according to The Celtic Star.

With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang potentially leaving the club in the summer, Arsenal could need to find a new front-man to lead the line as Mikel Arteta aims to get his side back into the top four, and Edouard has emerged as a leading candidate to be that man.

The 22-year old striker has cut an impressive figure for the Hoops this season, scoring 21 goals in 27 league games, while also registering an additional 12 assists in the league.

Reacting on social media to the Edouard speculation, a number of Arsenal fans have expressed delight at seeing the club pursue the highly regarded forward.
