It has been revealed that Arsene Wenger is planning a £12 million bid for Wolves striker Kevin Doyle.
The Mirror has reported that the French tactician has targeted Doyle for a surprise switch to the Emirates and will test Mick McCarthy’s resolve to keep the Republic of Ireland international this summer.
Doyle is high on Arsenal’s hit-list of transfer priorities and Wenger wants him to spearhead a new-look Gunners team that will have a British spine.
Wenger is a huge admirer of the 27-year-old’s lung-busting work rate and he first came on the radar during Ireland’s World Cup play-off with France in November 2009.
The Gunners boss was commentating for French TV and raved about Doyle’s performance - and is now preparing to offer him the chance to become part of a new Arsenal era nearly 18 months later.
