Joshua Zirkzee of Bologna is a striker that Arsenal much admires and believes would fit in well with the rest of the team.

It is widely anticipated that the Gunners would sign a new center-forward, since Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus are having difficulty staying consistent.

Although Kai Havertz has been a fantastic answer over the last few months, Mikel Arteta, the manager, would undoubtedly want someone specialist to fill the position.

Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Gunners may have an advantage over teams like AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli in the race to recruit Zirkzee.

According to the site, Zirkzee is “a lot” liked by the London giants, who are “convinced” of his physical and technical attributes matching up well with the team.

Arsenal is reportedly the favorite to win the striker’s auction, which is estimated to be worth over €70 million, due to his “great charm” and “greater economic availability.”

Apart from Zirkzee, Sporting’s Viktor Gyokeres and RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko are two more players Arsenal could consider this summer, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

ARSENAL WOULD NOT BE TRANSFORMED TO A NEW LEVEL BY ZIRKZEE

Even though Arsenal has improved for the second year in a row, they still lack a center forward who can score 20–25 goals a season.

This summer, the department is probably going to be the club’s top priority. We believe that the Gunners ought to refrain from going after Zirkzee, who has not shown consistency yet.

Through 33 games this season, the Dutchman has only managed 11 goals and 6 assists.

The 22-year-old’s distribution from deeper areas and hold-up play have pleased, but Arsenal needs a center-forward who can score goals.

Zirkzee does not seem to be the typical return solution. The team ought to concentrate on acquiring Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon in exchange for the exorbitant sum suggested.

With 36 goals and 16 assists this season, the Swede is playing at his best. He can be released for €100 million, but Sporting may be willing to pay less.
