Memphis Depay has been handed an ultimatum over his future at Barcelona amid links to an exit from the Nou Camp. The Netherlands international is one of a number of strikers linked with a move to Arsenal this summer.
Centre-forward is said to be an area of particular priority to manager Mikel Arteta in the transfer window, with Alexandre Lacazette set to leave the club as a free agent. Beyond that, goal scoring was an issue throughout the previous campaign, which will need to be addressed for the next.
Discussing the importance of signing a striker, the Spaniard said: “He puts the ball in the net – that’s priority number one. Goal threat. Any successful team needs enough goal threat in the squad. Without it, you have nothing.
