Arsenal are gearing up for a pivotal summer transfer window, with their main focus on acquiring a top-tier striker to strengthen Mikel Arteta’s squad.
Despite being among the contenders for the Premier League title, the Gunners currently trail league leaders Liverpool by 12 points. Injuries to key attackers—including Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli, and Kai Havertz—have significantly disrupted Arsenal’s campaign this season.
Their decision not to reinforce the attack in January could come back to haunt them in their title chase, making the upcoming summer transfer window even more critical.
Among the strikers linked with Arsenal, Alexander Isak and Benjamin Sesko have emerged as primary targets. However, Sesko appears to be the more attainable option, with recent reports indicating his openness to a move to North London.
Keown: Arsenal have deal for new striker wrapped up
Former Arsenal defender and TNT Sports pundit Martin Keown has suggested that the club may have already secured a deal for a new striker. Speaking on TNT Sports, Keown speculated:
“I would suggest that there’s already been a player bought, and that it’s already done from an Arsenal point of view. They won’t be making this mistake again.”
