Talks held: Arsenal preparing to make €30m transfer bid for 21-year-old talent | OneFootball

Arsenal are reportedly preparing to make a €30m transfer bid for Club Brugge’s talented young forward Nicolo Tresoldi this summer.

Gunners chief Andrea Berta is said to have already held talks over this deal, with things seemingly now progressing towards a possible bid for the player.

That’s according to a report from Tuttomercatoweb, which states that Arsenal are planning to bring in Tresoldi to compete with Viktor Gyokeres up front, with Gabriel Jesus expected to leave the Emirates Stadium.

Tresoldi looks like a promising talent, with the 21-year-old scoring 17 goals for Brugge this season, while he’s also been prolific at Under-21 level with Germany.

This is not the first time we’ve heard Arsenal transfer rumours about Tresoldi, with Christian Falk previously telling CaughtOffside about the Gunners’ interest.

Falk has named Arsenal as favourites to sign Tresoldi, whom he’s described as the future of the German national team up front.

It now seems things may be advancing further, so it will be an interesting saga to watch in the weeks and months ahead.

Arsenal need goals – can Tresoldi deliver?

Tresoldi looks like a striker with a big future in the game, and it’s not exactly the easiest market for centre-forwards right now.

There were some big moves last summer as Gyokeres joined Arsenal, though he hasn’t looked nearly as good in England as he did in Portugal with Sporting Lisbon.

Other major strikers to move include Benjamin Sesko, Nick Woltemade, and Liam Delap, but none have been particularly impressive.

Joao Pedro and Hugo Ekitike bucked that trend slightly, but AFC might struggle to get a truly world class number 9 right now as someone like Harry Kane surely won’t be available, while Julian Alvarez will cost a fortune.

In that case, signing an up-and-coming talent like Tresoldi could be ideal as he looks like someone who could be a fine long-term option if he continues to develop as he has.
