ELEVEN players on Gunners’ wishlist
Arsenal reportedly have 11 players on their transfer wishlist – with two new strikers at the top of it.
The Gunners are also eager to sign a midfielder and could recruit a right-back, a left-sided centre-back and a winger, depending on the budget available.
Qualifying for the Champions League would give Mikel Arteta and Edu more funds to play with and possibly allow them to add to the squad depth.
Having missed out on Dusan Vlahovic in January after he signed for Juventus, Arsenal could focus their attention on two other strikers.
Both Alexander Isak and Dominic Calvert-Lewin were of interest to Arsenal in January but their clubs refused to let them leave. But The Gunners could move back in for them according to The Evening Standard, who also report Arsenal’s interest in strikers Jonathan David and Darwin Nunez.
Forward Armando Broja, who has enjoyed a successful spell on loan at Southampton from Chelsea this season, is another back-up target. Edu is reportedly after two strikers from that list of five and once those deals are completed he could begin making approaches for a midfielder.
Leicester star Youri Tielemans has caught the eye but he is also wanted by Manchester United, so Villa’s Douglas Luiz could be back on the radar after being linked with a move to The Emirates in January.
Wolves’ Ruben Neves could also be subject to a transfer battle between Arsenal and United though Barcelona are looking to lure him to Spain.
