Edin Dzeko

The Bosnia-Herzegovina striker's displays this season have attracted the attention of the Gunners, who will face stern resistance if they choose to make a move...

Arsenal first-team coach Boro Primorac has revealed that the club have been monitoring the progress of Wolfsburg striker Edin Dzeko.

The 22-year-old striker has been in impressive form for the Die Wolfe this season, scoring 13 goals in 22 appearances to help the club reach second place in the Bundesliga.

"We [will] keep our eyes on him," Primorac is quoted as saying in German sports magazine Kicker-Sportmagazin.

"He is a striker able to make it in the Premier League."

It is thought that Spanish club Sevilla are also interested in the Bosnia-Herzegovina international, who has scored 6 goals in 13 caps, although Wolfsburg appear determined to keep hold of him.

"Edin is under contract for two more years and likes being at Wolfsburg," his agent Alen Augustincic is quoted as saying.

"We are hoping they will win participation in the Champions League for next season."

Manager Felix Magath remarked, "We want to keep our team at our club, as many players as possible. I am confident Dzeko will be a Wolfsburg player next season, too."
