The striker position was an absolute priority for Arsenal this summer after the departures of Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The ageing pair had been the Gunners' frontline attack for a number of seasons as the club continued to regress.
It was time for an overhaul but there were few who likely thought that Eddie Nketiah would be such a big part of it. The Arsenal academy graduate is set to earn a serious pay rise after signing a new five-year deal with the club.
Further to the former England under-21 captain, Arsenal are closing on a deal to bring Gabriel Jesus to the club. This should not be understated; Jesus is a proven Premier League forward with titles galore to his name and lauded by Pep Guardiola for his wide array of strengths.
