Genk striker Paul Onuachu is hoping to complete a move to Arsenal in the summer transfer window, according to a report.

Genk striker Paul Onuachu is reportedly pining for a move to Arsenal in the summer transfer window.

The 6ft 7in forward has enjoyed a sensational campaign in the Jupiler Pro League this term, sitting at the top of the goalscoring charts with 30 strikes from 34 league appearances.

Onuachu's deal with Genk is not due to expire until the end of the 2023-24 season, but his prolific form has understandably attracted the interest of top European clubs.

According to Voetbalbelgie, the 26-year-old is hoping to complete a summer transfer to Arsenal, who are facing uncertainty surrounding the futures of their current forwards.

The Gunners have tied Folarin Balogun down to a new long-term deal, but Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette both continue to be linked with moves away.

Onuachu boasts 42 goals from 65 appearances for Genk since arriving from FC Midtjylland in the summer of 2019, and the Belgian outfit supposedly want a fee of €30m (£26m) to part ways with the attacker.
