The reports claim that the Cherries will be open to letting him leave, but will demand around £50 million for the player.
It is said that Solanke has impressed Arsenal with his hard-working performances and they believe he can still improve.
Solanke has been in productive form for the Cherries this season with nine goals in 17 Premier League appearances.
The 26-year-old has played a major role in their revival with goals against Newcastle, Aston Villa and most recently Manchester United.
West Ham are also admirers of Solanke and could make a move for him next month if finances allow.
The former Chelsea and Liverpool striker was on the scoresheet again against Luton this weekend before the match was abandoned after Tom Lockyer went into cardiac arrest.
