Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has put St Etienne's French star Bafetimbi Gomis on an SOS short-list. Wenger is concerned Emmanuel Adebayor will quit this summer as AC Milan and Barcelona hover around the Togo international. And the Gunners have enquired about new sensation Gomis and Blackburn's Santa Cruz in the past few days. Both would cost upwards of £15million - but that won't worry Wenger, who is determined not to start next season short in attack. Gomis is on Wenger's radar after a sensational run took him to the top of the French scoring charts and into their Euro 2008 squad. Manchester United have also looked at Gomis, 23, but insiders at the French camp say that Arsenal are now the favourites.
