Arsene Wenger is back in for Roque Santa Cruz as Arsenal prepare to auction off Emmanuel Adebayor.
Arsenal boss Wenger has re-ignited his interest in Santa Cruz as he believes he can broker a cut-price £10million deal for the Blackburn star.
Paraguayan striker Santa Cruz, 27, was a £20m target for Manchester City in January but their interest has waned and that has left Blackburn knowing they could lose millions on him this summer.
Santa Cruz is Wenger’s long-standing choice as a replacement for Adebayor, whose own long-term future has been in doubt ever since AC Milan and Barcelona tried to sign him last summer.
Adebayor signed a new contract after staying at Arsenal but his form has dropped badly and the club will sell if they can get the right price for him – and a ready-made replacement.
Togo striker Adebayor admitted he was flattered by AC Milan’s interest in him last summer and the Italians are likely to renew their attempts to sign him
