But Arsenal are well-positioned to land a blow in Erik ten Hag&#8217;s striker search after reportedly stealing a march for Santos&#8217; Marcos Leonardo.<\/p>\n<p>The 20-year-old forward made headlines throughout an impressive individual 2023 season, scoring 21 goals in a poor Santos team.<\/p>\n<p>His goalscoring exploits and eye-catching potential have reportedly grabbed the attention of Europe&#8217;s biggest clubs, including United.<\/p>\n<p>But based on claims in Brazil, Arsenal appear to be leading the race for Leonardo&#8217;s signature ahead of the January transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>According to R7, Leonardo wants to leave Santos after the club suffered the first relegation of their 111-year existence, and they aren&#8217;t expected to stand in his way.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s claimed United are monitoring his situation as Ten Hag plans fresh attacking firepower next year.<\/p>\n<p>However, the report adds that Arsenal are preparing a \u00a317million bid for the Brazil U20 international, which other Brazilian outlets have previously suggested would meet Santos&#8217; asking price.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click

contrasting success this season, the Gunners would likely present a more attractive opportunity for Leonardo than United next month.<\/p>\n<p>Mikel Arteta&#8217;s side are challenging for the Premier League title for a second successive campaign and have progressed to the Champions League last 16.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, United are slumped in sixth in the Premier League, nine points off leaders Liverpool ahead of Sunday&#8217;s trip to Anfield.<\/p>\n<p>And Ten Hag won&#8217;t oversee any European football in the second half of the season after just one win in six Group A games left his outfit rock bottom.<\/p>\n<p>The Dutchman will be keen to boost his attacking options this winter and next summer, though, amid a continued struggle for goals.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\"
