Arsenal are tracking Wolfsburg's Edin Dzeko and could be lining up a bid for the striker in the January transfer window.

Gunners first-team coach Boro Primorac has revealed that the club are following the 21-year-old's progress closely.

Bosnia international Dzeko joined Wolfsburg from FK Teplice last summer for an undisclosed fee.

Reports suggest that Arsenal could bid for the forward as Robin van Persie is currently sidelined through injury.

Money

Primorac is unsure if The Gunners will lodge a bid for Dzeko, but is aware that he would cost manager Arsene Wenger a substantial fee

"We have been following Edin Dzeko. He is a type of striker which can be a success in the Premier League," he told SAN.

"It is not certain at all if we capture him, but his performances have been better and better day by day. If you want to buy such player, you need plenty of money."
