Arsenal’s most recent Alexandre Lacazette decision highlights Mikel Arteta’s intentions in the transfer window, which is to spend a large amount on one striker. Victor Osimhen could be the focus of attention for the Spaniard due to recent links with the striker.
According to French news outlet L’Equipe, the Gunners could offer Lacazette a new short-term deal. This would be to solve the incoming striker shortages at the club and prevent Arteta from having to sign two strikers.
If the Gunners wanted to bring in a household name such as Osimhen, then he would cost around £83million according to Spanish news outlet Fichjaes. With such a high price tag, bringing in another striker alongside the Nigerian would certainly be expensive for the Gunners, which could explain why Arteta is willing to offer Lacazette a short-term deal.
