Arsenal to pip Liverpool and Barcelona to £13.3m La Liga goal-machine

Nolito has been on fire in La Liga this season

ARSENAL are set to sign Celta Vigo forward Nolito in the January transfer window, according to reports.

The 28-year-old has made an impressive start to the La Liga season, scoring five goals and making three assists in six games.
And with Celta Vigo currently riding high in fourth place in the table, star man Nolito is understandably attracting interest.

Arsenal are still in need of attacking options after failing to secure another striker over the summer.
And the Spain international could fit the bill perfectly, offering some much-needed support to Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott.

According to Fichajes the Gunners will match the attacker's £13.3million buy-out clause.
However, they will face tough opposition from Barcelona, who are eyeing the frontman given their current injury crisis.

Everton were also linked with Nolito over the summer, however a deal failed to materialise.
And Liverpool have also reportedly shown interest in the Spaniard in the past, however, splashed the cash on Danny Ings and Christian Benteke instead.
