INTER MILAN keeper Emiliano Viviano is an £8million target for Arsenal.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger will make his move as soon as he finally offloads Emirates misfit Manuel Almunia.
Inter have only just paid Bologna £3.8m to acquire the full rights for Viviano, 25, who had been co-owned by the two clubs.
But the 6ft 5in Italian would welcome a move to Arsenal to battle Wojcech Szczesny for the No 1 spot rarther than be Julio Cesar's understudy at the San Siro.
Almunia lost his place at Arsenal after a series of blunders last season and fans demanded Wenger bring in an experienced stopper this summer.
But targeting Viviano suggests Wenger is not prepared to break the bank with a £20m swoop for Lyon's France No 1 Hugo Lloris.
