Arsenal can make a title-winning deal by signing £65m attacker who plays just like Thierry Henry - opinion
What a player...????
Arsenal have been patient in the transfer window this summer but are close to bringing in a second addition.
Riccardo Calafiori has just made the switch from Bologna and now Mikel Merino is close to joining Arsenal from Real Sociedad after an impressive season in La Liga.
Mikel Arteta is thought to be keen on adding another attacker to his ranks and one Frenchman on the continent would be the absolute perfect signing.
Arsenal should try to sign Marcus Thuram
Arsenal are in desperate need of a focal point to lead the line and it’s perhaps the only area that’s holding them back from winning the Premier League title.
So, to solve that problem, sporting director Edu Gaspar should go all out to sign Inter Milan forward Marcus Thuram.
The France international is thought to be valued at around £65m after an impressive season in Italy, netting 15 times whilst laying on 14 assists.
Thuram’s physicality and power would lend themselves well to the Premier League and his arrival could be the catalyst to a first Premier League triumph since 2004.
Marcus Thuram compared to Thierry Henry
Arsene Wenger, speaking to Der Spiegal in 2020, likened Thuram to Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.
“Thierry Henry had the timing of the smartest footballers. He was also very strong physically, and technically he could do everything.
“In fact, there’s a player in the Bundesliga who reminds me of him – Marcus Thuram from Borussia Monchengladbach.”
If Thuram were to join Arsenal and even fulfil half of what Henry achieved, he’d be a roaring success…
