Metro UK revealed that Arsenal have opened talks with the striker over a chance to extend his stay at the Emirates Stadium.
The 30-year-old has been superb for his Premier League side this campaign - scoring 25 goals in 31 appearances across competitions.
Reports from the player's camp claim he wants to join a club where he can win silverware - including the Champions League.
Meanwhile, the forward insists earlier this week that winning titles will not define his career, adding that he will defend his team.

"I’m a striker so I will defend my side – I don’t think you need trophies to be a top striker,’ he told Sky Sports.
"Of course, it can help you but we’ve seen a lot of great players that didn’t win trophies but we respect them because of their quality. ‘You don’t need to win trophies but if you win it, it’s better.’
YEN earlier reported that Arsenal's journey in the Europa League this season came to an abrupt end following their 2-1 defeat to Olympiacos at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners took a one-goal advantage from their first meeting last week in Greece but failed to build on it as they allowed their visitors to find the back of the net twice.
They, however, crashed out of the competition on away goals rule despite both teams scoring two goals apiece in the round.
