Every game has made it more obvious how urgently they need to bolster their forward line, especially when Bukayo Saka was sidelined with a hamstring injury.

According to pundit Jamie Carragher, Arsenal should focus on adding an attacker who can share the effort and lessen Saka’s responsibility rather than just acquiring a classic striker.

According to recent sources, Arsenal shares this opinion, as they are currently pursuing one of the Premier League’s most productive attackers in an effort to increase their offensive options and strengthen their title challenge.

The goal of Mikel Arteta’s team is to bring in a new winger.

As a result, in the summer of 2025, Arsenal hopes to sign the Brentford attacker.

Jason Cundy dubbed Mbeumo the “Mini Salah” because he is scoring 13 goals in the league and having yet another incredible season under Thomas Tuchel. Cole Palmer and Alexander Isak share the Cameroonian wideman’s league goal total.

In addition to being targeted by Liverpool, Mbeumo has shown Brentford supporters that there is more to the Gtech Community Stadium than Ivan Toney.

What Bryan Mbeumo has done this season no other Premier League player has

In their 2-0 loss to Newcastle in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final, Arsenal’s wastefulness was brought to light by the wasted gilt-edged opportunities by players like Kai Havertz, Gabriel Martinelli, and Jurrien Timber.

The Gunners will be acquiring the Premier League’s most statistically clinical player if they are successful in acquiring Mbeumo.

According to WhoScored.com, the Bees forward has the highest conversion percentage (37.1%) of any player in the English top flight who has attempted 30 or more shots this season.

In this area, Mbeumo has surpassed players like Mohamed Salah (24.3%), James Maddison (25%), Yoane Wissa (27%), and Chris Wood (33.3%).
