Mikel Arteta wants Premier League flop at Arsenal who has a release clause of £43m | OneFootball

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is keen to strengthen his team’s attacking firepower this year.

The Gunners wanted to sign a new attacker in the January transfer window after the injury suffered by Gabriel Jesus.

The North London club made a move to sign Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins in the winter transfer window but they failed to agree a deal with the Premier League rivals to sign the England international.

Since then, the Premier League giants have been linked with a move for a number of attackers and the latest one is someone who flopped in England.

According to Tuttusport, Arsenal are considering a surprise move for former Everton attacker Moise Kean.

The 24-year-old failed to impress at Everton but this season, he has been in fine form for Fiorentina.

As per the report, Kean has a release clause of just €52m (£43m) this summer, something that the Gunners can easily afford.

Arsenal as well as rivals Tottenham are both keen on a move for the Serie A star who has scored 15 goals this season in the league in just 22 appearances.

The youngster struggled to adapt to life in the Premier League following his move in 2019.

Following spells at Everton and Juventus, Kean has finally found his form at Fiorentina, where he has shown that he has the potential to become one of the best players in his position.

With Arteta’s side struggling in attack this season, a move for an attacker is not only a need but a desperation for the Premier League side.

Liverpool star Diogo Jota is the latest attacker to get linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium.

While Arsenal’s dream transfer target is Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, they may have to consider other options who are more affordable.
