Even if I don’t have the gift of prophecy, I have no doubt that Arsenal will add a star striker to their roster in 2025.
Havertz still hasn’t scored the goal that Mikel Arteta’s project so desperately needs. Regrettably, compared to Gabriel Jesus, he hasn’t been too impressive.
Arsenal are in desperate need of a striker who can lead the squad to victory by consistently scoring from the numerous opportunities presented to them. They require an attacker who can maintain possession of the ball and challenge the defense of their opponents.
Which forward do you think this is? The 23-goal Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting CP is often considered to be that striker.
F365 wanted to know whether, like many Gooners, ex-Arsenal striker Jeremie Aliadiere thinks Gyokeres is the striker his old team is missing.
Instead of praising the potential impact on Arsenal’s roster if Gyokeres were to sign with the club, he singled out another potential suitor.
According to him, Arsenal should consider acquiring Darwin Nunez from Liverpool.
There were rumors that Arsenal were interested in signing the Uruguayan international back in the summer, and Aliedere implies that he was thrilled with the deal, even though it fell through.
His admiration for Darwin Nunez was overwhelming, he admitted, even though he was at Liverpool. I adore the guy’s work ethic, runs, and determination; he has my undying admiration. At Arsenal, we could really use a player like him. I recall that rumors regarding his arrival began to circulate over the summer. It would be wonderful to have him join us, so that was exciting to me.
Such a player is constantly causing problems for the defense by making daring rushes in behind them. The other members of the team benefit greatly from it, even though he doesn’t personally benefit. I get that some people think he needs more than one opportunity to score, but he just isn’t a great finisher. It doesn’t concern me. All the labor, all the drama, all the effort he puts in are worth it to me.
Most Gooners will be perplexed to hear that Arsenal is considering signing Nunez. At the Emirates, the Red Devils have unable to reproduce the form he showed while playing for Benfica.
After an outstanding league season in which he scored 26 goals in 28 games, Nunez was signed by Liverpool in the summer of 2022 after beating out a number of Premier League clubs.
He has scored 11 goals in a single league campaign at Liverpool in the last two seasons.
Even while he isn’t necessarily the solution to Arsenal’s offensive woes, he is a talented player who, given the correct circumstances, might blossom into a star.
The additions of Martin Odegaard and Kai Havertz attest to Mikel Arteta’s reputation for resurrecting the careers of players like Nunez; whether Arteta chooses Nunez as his comeback project remains to be seen.
