Arsenal, Manchester United, and Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly keen on signing Atalanta striker Mateo Retegui.
Mateo Retegui has done quite well for Atalanta this season, and he has 23 goals to his name in all competitions. According to a report from Fichajes, the Italian international is likely to cost around €50-60 million. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal and Manchester United are prepared to pay up.
The two Premier League giants have the financial resources to get the deal done, and Retegui could prove to be a quality acquisition for them. The Italian international has proven himself in Serie A, and he has the quality to do well in the Premier League as well.
Arsenal are in desperate need of a quality goalscorer and the 25-year-old could make a big difference for them in the final third. Players like Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz have struggled to find the back of the net consistently. Arsenal need a reliable striker to challenge for major trophies, with Mateo Retegui emerging as a viable target.
The 25-year-old striker is entering his peak years, and he will want to compete at the highest level. The opportunity to join a club like Arsenal will be quite exciting for him. The North Londoners have a formidable squad, and they have been challenging for the title in the last couple of seasons. They are likely to push for major trophies in the coming season as well.
Manchester United keen on Retegui
Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world as well, and it will be interesting to see if the Red Devils can get the deal done. They will need to beat the competition from Arsenal to secure his services.
The Gunners will be able to offer the striker Champions League football next season. On the other hand, Manchester United are struggling this season, and they are unlikely to finish in the top four.
It remains to be seen whether they can convince the striker to join them, even though he will not be able to compete in the Champions League with them next season. Joshua Zirkzee is still struggling in the Premier League, and the Red Devils need an upgrade if they want to do well next season.
