As the January transfer window nears its end, Arsenal's manager Mikel Arteta reveals the club's urgent need for a new striker following injuries to key players Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus. While initially interested in RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko, further negotiations seem unlikely. Arteta is considering various options including Dusan Vlahovic and Matheus Cunha, emphasizing the importance of recruiting a player who can strengthen the squad and help address the current injury crisis that is affecting the team's attacking capabilities.
Arsenal have been linked with a whole host of players. Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus is a long-term target, while Wolves' Matheus Cunha has been increasingly linked with a switch to the Emirates.
Arteta acknowledged that the club is struggling with injuries and emphasized the pressing need for a new striker, stating 'we lack goals, we lack people, we lack options in the front line'.
Leipzig's managing director denied reports of Benjamin Sesko's potential move, stating 'There is definitely no contact with any other club or any discussions regarding Benjamin Sesko'.
Arteta stressed the necessity of acquiring a player who can make a difference: 'If we can get the right player, that's what we're actively looking at, someone that makes us better and has an impact on the team.'
