Arsenal are confident of landing Real Madrid striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar ahead of Tottenham.
The Sun says the Dutchman, 26, has turned down Stuttgart in favour of a move to the Premier League.
And the Gunners are confident they can outbid Tottenham with an offer of £16.5million.
Huntelaar returns to Real's training camp today and the Spaniards want his future sorted out by the end of next week.
Huntelaar's agent Arnold Oosterveer said: "We want the best option for the kid without taking too much time over it. Now the decision rests with Real."
