Southampton has reportedly submitted a bid for an “exceptional” star, with rumors swirling that a deal could be completed soon. This potential transfer “swoop” for Coman will hinge on the financial details, as the player currently earns a hefty £300,000 per week at Bayern Munich. While this figure may be beyond Arsenal’s financial capabilities, it is within reach for clubs in Saudi Arabia.
Arsenal has not had issues finding the back of the net in recent seasons, having scored 88 and 91 goals in the 2022/23 and 2023/24 campaigns respectively. The latter total set a new club record. Despite their impressive goal-scoring record, the Gunners are said to be in the market for a world-class forward, even if they do not necessarily need a traditional striker.
As the transfer window heats up, Arsenal faces the potential departure of Nketiah to Crystal Palace, leaving them short on attacking options. With Gabriel Jesus prone to frequent injuries, the need for reinforcements becomes even more pressing. Additionally, Brazilian winger Gabriel Martinelli has been struggling for form, further highlighting the need for reinforcements in the attacking department.
The potential acquisition of Coman could provide the Gunners with a dynamic attacking option, adding depth and quality to their squad. Manager Mikel Arteta will be hoping to secure the services of the talented winger as he looks to strengthen his team for the upcoming season. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing transfer saga.
In the meantime, fans can also look forward to the potential addition of Mikel Merino to the Arsenal squad. The midfielder’s intelligence and technical ability could prove to be a valuable asset for the team, bringing a new dimension to their midfield. Arteta will be eager to integrate Merino into his squad as he looks to build a competitive team for the challenges ahead.
