Arsenal prepared to offer huge £144,000-per-week contract to land striker

Arsenal are prepared to more than double Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata’s wages in a bid to bring him to the Emirates Stadium this summer.

The Spanish star recently made the move back to Madrid from Juventus after the La Liga giants paid his buy-out clause of £23m but could be set to cash in on him by making a potentially massive profit.

While in an initial club statement regarding Morata’s future, Madrid revealed that Zinedine Zidane would like to keep a hold of the 23-year-old for the coming season, it’s believed that Florentino Perez is willing to sell him if a good enough bid is made.

According to Spanish news outlet AS, after rejection from Jamie Vardy, Arsene Wenger is willing to go for broke and make a major bid for Morata, as well as more than doubling his current £65,000-per-week wages by offering £144,000.

However, the Gunners will face competition from the likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City to sign the talented forward.
