We obviously don't want to think too much about worse-case scenarios this summer and I certainly don't mean to worry you all, but it is something that Arsenal must prepare for if things don't go as planned, after all, anything can happen during a transfer window.
If there was one position which was in desperate need of strengthening, it would be centre-forward, it's a pretty easy choice. Following the departures of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette, there is a rather urgent need for reinforcements as preparations are made for next season.
It looked likely that Eddie Nketiah would also follow them out of the exit door, but a change of heart is set to see him extend his stay. It takes the pressure off Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu slightly, but there still remains a need to bring in a top-quality striker who is guaranteed to score goals.
