Arsenal are interested in RB Salzburg striker Noah Okafor.

The Daily Mail says Premier League leaders Arsenal are among the clubs who have assessed the credentials of Swiss star Okafor ahead of a summer when they plan to increase their attacking options. The 22-year-old has also been looked at by Tottenham and West Ham.

Following a breakout season last term in which he scored 14 times in 34 appearances for Austrian side Salzburg, Okafor further enhanced his reputation with 10 goals in 20 games ahead of the World Cup.

Among his tally were Champions League goals against Chelsea and AC Milan in a hot streak of six goals in six games.

Okafor is only under contract until next summer, reducing Salzburg's chances of commanding a fee that truly reflects his ability and potential.
