Arsenal have suffered a huge setback in their pursuit to sign striker Andre Silva from FC Porto this summer as Real Madrid have entered the race to sign the exciting forward, according to Daily Star.
The 21-year old is one of the best young strikers in the world as he has already netted 14 goals this season and with Porto not keen to sell him this month, his price is expected to rise up to £50m come the summer.
Real Madrid who were banned from signing players in January have made it clear to Porto that the player is on the top of their wishlist and they will buy him in the summer. Wenger needs to find new options for the striker position with a lot of uncertainty around Sanchez’s future.
