Colombia international Radamel Falcao claims Arsenal are keen to sign him in an £8million deal.
The 22-year-old striker has spent the last three years with River Plate and has an excellent scoring record for the Argentinian side.
He found the net 19 times in 35 starts in all competitions in the 2007-08 season helping River Plate finish as champions of the Argentine Clausura 08.
Falcao told The Sun: "I know there is interest from Arsenal and that excites me.
"If there is an agreement between the clubs I'm ready to go. It would mean a huge leap forward in my career.
"I can guarantee my financial future. The Premier League is sensational."
