From the source

According to Italian outlet Tuttomercatoweb, Arsenal could go head-to-head with Napoli to sign Monza striker Gustavo Varela next year. The Gunners were linked with several marquee forwards during last summer’s transfer window, but they signed just one winger in Christos Tzolis from Club Brugge.

The Premier League holders are bound to pursue more attacking signings in the future and Tuttomercatoweb cite that the Gunners are in the race to land Monza’s Varela.

Napoli are the main contenders from Serie A for the 21-year-old striker, but it is mentioned that Premier League clubs have started making moves for the Portuguese ace.
