Only those in the Arsenal hierarchy will have an idea as to what plans the club will have for the summer transfer window.
The Gunners still have a few months to wait before they are able to strengthen their squad in the transfer market. A host of names have already been linked with moving to the Emirates Stadium, but one player continues to be mentioned on the rumour mill more than most.
Alexander Isak appears to be one of the most in-demand strikers in Europe going into the summer transfer window. It’s not just Arsenal that have been linked with a move for the Newcastle United star. Liverpool, Chelsea, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain have all been mentioned as potential destinations for the Sweden international.
With Newcastle reportedly demanding a fee in excess of £100million to allow Isak to leave the club this summer, Arsenal will certainly have to splash the cash if they want to bring the striker to North London this summer. If that were to happen, though, it would give Mikel Arteta the opportunity to name an exciting line-up.
At present, Arsenal’s forward options have been impacted heavily by injuries. That will change for the start of next season, before you even add Isak into the mix.
Bukayo Saka will take his place on the right wing and will most likely be supported by Gabriel Martinelli on the left. Isak through the middle as the centre forward may give Arteta a selection dilemma when it comes to one player, though.
