Kevin Mirallas claims Arsenal want to sign him.
The Olympiacos striker, who is currently on international duty with the Belgium national squad, has been linked with a move to The Emirates, and is believed to be available for just £6.4 million due to a clause in his existing contract.
The Belgium star claims he is ready for a move to one of the major European leagues and says his agent is having talks with Arsenal
The 24-year-old told Belgian newspaper Het Nieuwsblad:
‘There is still a chance I will move to the Premier League.
‘My agent is having talks with Arsenal, those rumours are true.’
He finished off by saying:
‘Moving to England would be good for me, it’s good for my family and it’s a good opportunity.’
Liverpool are thought to be keeping tabs on the forward, while CSKA Moscow recently had a £5 million bid for his services rejected by the Greek club.
Mirallas would make a good addition to the squad, and I’m glad he has confirmed that we are in fact interested in him.
However, I believe we should only make a move for Mirallas if Robin van Persie is sold, which looks likely, as we currently have a number of top strikers on our books already.
Still, £6.4 million for a talented, young forward? It’s worth mulling over that’s for sure!

Think your a day behind mate… Everton are about to sign him!!
or he doesnt have a clue what club he is signing for
Well if he goes there then thats a kick in the balls
Methinks someone’s agent is telling porkies to their client!!!
Wenger shud allow dis guy 2 move and i believe arsenal will perform even better.get us some quality players like M’vila, liorente,mirallas and mexes pdssibly van der weil.
he is on his way Everton.
“L”ondon or “L”iverpool. Both are known for their red attire. But, perhaps his agent got the Ls confused?
I woiuld rather we kept Nic B. A proven striker who, while never first choice, is a great squad member to kave, good for 8-10 goals at least.
I prefer Mirallas to Llorente, coz he is cheaper, younger, is two in one. We’ve already signed proven strikers like Podi&Giroud. Gunner4life.
Persoanlly I would rather us pay all of what we get from the sale of RVP for Llorente….far better player.
Still think the sale to MANU is a disgrace…no in fact its an OUTRAGEUOS thing to do….can you imagine MANU selling Rooney to US….it would never happen Utd are a Big club in all senses of teh word…. I thought we were but this proves me wrong!!
