Arsenal are only looking to sign one striker ahead of next season after renewing the contract of Eddie Nketiah. It looks as though Gabriel Jesus will be the forward that Mikel Arteta opts to sign with the player having agreed to personal terms according to Ben Jacobs from CBS Sports when speaking to ' The Football Terrace '.
A possible reason why Arsenal are only signing one striker this summer is that they could have a strategy in place for the next summer transfer window to sign Christopher Nkunku. The Frenchman has agreed to a new contract with Leipzig, which keeps him at the club for at least another season.
The Gunners were linked to signing the former Paris Saint-Germain star, but the failure to qualify for the Champions League would have made his acquisition extremely difficult. Now, Arsenal will have another season to claim a place in Europe’s elite competition before attempting to sign Nkunku.
