Arsenal launch January move for Spain striker Nolito as window approaches
Nolito is on Arsenal's January shortlist
ARSENAL have made an enquiry for Celta Vigo striker Nolito, according to reports.
 
The Spain international has impressed Arsene Wenger this term after scoring eight times in La Liga so far.
The 29-year-old made his Spain bow in November last year and now has five caps.
Nolito graduated from the Barcelona academy - the famed La Masia -  and is wanted by Luis Enrique.
 
However Barca are embroiled in financial difficulties and cannot afford to spend big in the transfer window.
They are currently under transfer embargo - which lifts in the new year - but cannot afford the £15million it would take to land Nolito.
Arsenal, meanwhile, have had to deal with Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud as their only two strikers this season with Danny Welbeck out injured.
And, according to the Mirror, the Gunners have made their move and are willing to to offer a 250% pay rise.
