Arsenal are chasing Inter Milan defender Andrea Ranocchia, according to reports emerging abroad.
It is no secret that Arsene Wenger is looking to add a new centre-back to the line-up as fears grow that Thomas Vermaelen or Laurent Koscielny could make a surprise move away.
And according to reports on the Corriere dello Sport, we are lining up a big money move for Ranocchia, who is rated as one of the best ball playing defenders in Europe.
He has a price tag of £15 million and Inter will look to so some business, as they try and raise funds to try and prise their summer targets to Seria A.
However, the likes of Manchester United and Tottenham are also in the race and a battle looks like it could ensue for his services.
