BREAKING NEWS”Arsenal planning £42m swap deal for ‘unbelievable’ forward who’s currently missing from training

With little more than a week until the August transfer window closes on the 30th, Arsenal is undoubtedly intensifying their plans.

Eddie Nketiah, a talented player from Hale End, is almost certain to leave Arsenal. The club and Nottingham Forest have nearly reached an agreement on a transfer cost.

And it’s anticipated that this action will have repercussions. In addition to Arsenal trying to complete Mikel Merino’s transfer, they might also look to upgrade Nketiah.

It’s interesting to note, though, that a striker is unlikely to be Nketiah’s replacement.

It has been claimed that early in the summer, Mikel Arteta expressed his desire to sign another elite wide-forward.

Jamie Carragher reached the same conclusion about Arsenal, stating that north London still had space for another “world-class” forward.

And it appears that Arsenal is now thinking about making a bold attempt to sign a Serie A player who has experience playing in the Premier League, according to journalist Alfredo Pedulla.

Arsenal was apparently considering making a bid for Ademola Lookman, as TBR Football recently revealed as part of our report.

Jakub Kiwior will be offered by Arsenal in exchange for Ademola Lookman of Atalanta.
Arsenal’s already bloated team is one of their current problems when it comes to bringing in more players before the deadline.

But if this story is accurate, Edu appears to have devised a cunning scheme to send defender Jakub Kiwior to Atalanta in exchange for Lookman.

Arsenal is reportedly mulling a €50 million (£42 million) plus Kiwior deal to recruit Lookman, who isn’t showing up for training at the Italian team right now. This information comes from Pedulla.

The reporter anticipates that Lookman’s absence is approved by the team and isn’t motivated by his wish to depart due to attention from Paris Saint-Germain.

However, Lookman did recently request to miss Atalanta’s season opener, presumably in search of a fresh challenge.

Thankfully, Gian Piero Gasperini, the manager of Atalanta, is rumoured to be a Kiwior fan. Giorgio Scalvini recently had a significant knee injury, thus Gasperini has to acquire a defender.

If Arsenal could make that work, that would be a truly amazing transaction.

Gabriel Jesus, however, is not concerned about Arsenal acquiring a new forward because he currently has his own strategy for the team.
