Arsenal and Aston Villa are reportedly the latest clubs to have expressed their interest in signing Genk striker Paul Onuachu.

The 27-year-old, who stands 6ft 7in tall, has been linked with a move away from the Belgian outfit, with the likes of West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund all believed to be monitoring his situation.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Mikel Arteta's side and Villa have now entered the race for the Nigerian's signature and will consider making an offer for the striker in January.

Onuachu is believed to have 'dreams of playing in London' and in the Premier League, and so would seemingly prefer a move to the Gunners over the Villains, while this admiration would also appeal to both West Ham and Spurs.

The striker has three years remaining on his current contract at the Cegeka Arenaand and is valued by Genk in the region of £20m.

Onuachu has had an impressive spell in front of goal so far this season, netting 12 times in 18 appearances across all competitions.
