Arsenal are planning to reignite their bid to sign Aston Villa forward Ollie Watkins this summer, sources have told Football Insider.

Villa knocked back a £50million offer from the London giants for their star striker, 29, in the January transfer window.

Watkins was then the undisputed attack leader for Unai Emery‘s side, but his status has been diminished since Marcus Rashford’s arrival on loan in January.

Watkins was overlooked in the starting XI for a string of key Villa matches, including the Champions League double-header against Paris Saint-Germain.

That development has not gone unnoticed at Arsenal, who are in the market for a proven centre-forward this summer.

Watkins will be on their shortlist of targets as Mikel Arteta’s side look to revolutionise their attack in the off-season.
