Arsenal are ready to move for Bolton Wanderers defender Gary Cahill.
The Guardian says Wanderers' decision to put Cahill on the transfer market has opened the door to a formal bid from Arsenal.
Arsène Wenger has been monitoring Cahill's impressive recent progress and despite spending £13m on two centre-halves during the summer some at the club doubt that the defence is sufficiently robust.
Bolton are looking for £15m, which Arsenal may consider excessive, for a player who won his first international cap against Bulgaria in September as a second-half substitute.
