Arsenal Ready to Hunt for New Striker in Summer Transfer Window

Mikel Arteta and Arsenal are preparing to hunt for a new striker in this summer’s transfer window — a move deemed crucial after an unsatisfying season.

The Gunners have faced sharp criticism regarding the absence of a world-class striker in their squad — a situation that forced them to rely on collective play to score goals.

Last season proved Arsenal’s limitations when they were eliminated in the Champions League semifinals against Paris Saint-Germain — ending their last hope for a trophy.

The injury crisis in the forward line even forced Arteta to use Mikel Merino, a defensive midfielder, as a false nine — an emergency solution that shows the urgency of bringing in a new striker.
