Arsenal are reportedly keen on Serhou Guirassy as an additional striker option, with the Stuttgart forward ready for a new challenge.
According to Caught Offside, Arsenal are one of the clubs keen on Serhou Guirassy. The 27-goal Bundesliga star has been sounding out about a move away from Stuttgart in the summer, and the Premier League remains his preference, with the Gunners eager to bring an additional goalscorer to their squad.
Arsenal are keen on Serhou Guirassy?
Persistent reports have claimed that Arsenal will sign a new striker in the summer. The Gunners are the highest scorer in the Premier League this season but may insist they lack a prolific forward to help them win titles, with several names linked in the span of a few months.
They have seen links with Serhou Guirassy, the 27-goal Bundesliga star who has had an exceptional season with Stuttgart. His displays and goals have propelled them into third pot in Germany, and now they have confirmed Champions League qualification for next season. Guirassy had massive links to the Premier League in January, with Newcastle United and Manchester United keen.
Manchester United have cooled their interest, while there are some chances that the Magpies will make their move if they part ways with Callum Wilson. However, the Gunners are in the market for an additional striker despite Mikel Arteta claiming he wants to keep Atletico Madrid-linked Gabriel Jesus next season. Hence, they might look for a supporting goalscorer, as the Guirassy links make complete sense.
Given his age and lack of long-term prospects, whether they are open to signing him remains the question. However, his price, around €17.5 million, will entice any club, let alone Arsenal. The Gunners might decide on the 27-goal Bundesliga star in the summer, although Arteta might have a big name on his mind.
Does Arsenal want Alexander Isak?
Arsenal are reportedly prioritising a move for Alexander Isak as per the latest report. The Newcastle United star might see his future questioned, and an answer might come out when the Magpies offer him a new contract, as his reaction will say many things about speculation.
However, the links to Arsenal may have prompted Newacslte to look for a replacement striker, which may be Guirassy. The Gunners will look for a new striker, but if they cannot sign a priority signing like Isak, they might go with a short-term option like the 27-goal Bundesliga star.
