FEE AGREED: Arsenal agrees eye- watering fee to sign a striker who scores goals for fun, he’s on his way for medical now



 


 



Arsenal’s Premier League season has been exasperating owing to the fact that they have suffered several injuries, and as a result, they are currently playing catch-up to Liverpool at the top of the standings.



Despite the fact that the Gunners are now six points behind the Reds for the top place, the Merseyside club has an additional advantage in the form of a game that they played against Everton.

At this point, Mikel Arteta’s team is still in the running for the championship, but they need to be flawless in order to put pressure on the Reds.



Despite the fact that there has been speculation for some time that the London giants are going to acquire a new striker, The Athletic asserts that there is little reason to believe that Benjamin Sesko will be joining them.


The Slovenian superstar declined the opportunity to sign a new deal with the Gunners during the summer of 2017, and because RB Leipzig is working towards qualifying for the Champions League, they are hesitant to let him go.

Matheus Cunha, who plays for Wolverhampton Wanderers, has been brought to light as a potential option. Ever when he was playing for Atletico Madrid, the Gunners have been admiring the Brazilian superstar.

Although he has been in a contract standoff with Wolves, he will not be available for a low price price. There have been reports that it may cost about seventy million pounds to entice him away from the Midlands organisation.

When it comes to signing Cunha, it would be a wonderful idea, but the price may be a worry.

For quite some time, Sesko has been Arsenal’s primary striker target; however, a move appears to be improbable at the moment because the 21-year-old striker is not pressing for a transfer during the middle of the season.

As a result of this, there has been widespread suspicion that Cunha may become the primary target. During the current season, the 25-year-old has been performing admirably in the Premier League, as seen by his ten goals and four assists.

Even though his primary position is that of a centre striker, he has shown great potential as an offensive midfielder this season.

During his time in the English Premier League, Cunha has generated 11 significant opportunities with an average of 1.8 critical passes. During each of his appearances, he has successfully accomplished two take-ons, won 5.5 duels, and recovered 4.2 times.

In addition to this, the forward has been quite successful with his high pushing and effort rate. The fact that he does not have an aerial presence is compensated for by the deft mobility he displays in the last third of the field.

Cunha, who has been referred to as a “special player” by Wolves manager Vitor Pereira, has only failed to capitalise on one significant opportunity. There have been four goals scored by him from outside the box.

Although the Brazilian would be a wonderful midseason addition for the Gunners, the key issue that still needs to be answered is whether or not they are willing to commit a significant investment of seventy million pounds in order to secure his contract.

These kinds of expenditures could have an impact on their plans for the summer transfer, which might result in a reduction in the budget.
