Arsenal are far from done in the transfer market.
After securing midfielders Martin Zubimendi and Christian Norgaard, and bringing in Kepa Arrizabalaga as a backup goalkeeper, the Gunners are now fully focused on boosting their front line.
Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze remains the main target.
However, Arsenal are also exploring other options in case that deal proves too complicated.
Crystal Palace have always been a difficult club to negotiate transfers.
Mikel Arteta is determined to bring in another attacking threat before the season kicks off.
So far, progress has been positive. Noni Madueke is close to signing, and early talks for Eze have gone well.
Still, Arsenal know how unpredictable the market can be. That is why they have already drawn up a list of solid alternatives.
One name on that list has been attracting interest from several big clubs.
This player has gone from struggling in England to shining in Italy.
Tottenham, Newcastle, West Ham, and even Napoli are also following him closely.
He does not shy away from the big stage. In fact, he stunned everyone with a hat-trick in the Europa League final last year. That performance alone turned plenty of heads.
After years of inconsistency, he has finally found his form at Atalanta.
And now, Ademola Lookman is firmly on Arsenal’s radar, as revealed by CaughtOffside.
Lookman may not have found success in his early Premier League days with Everton and Fulham.
But his last three seasons in Serie A speak for themselves; over 50 goals in total.
Arsenal view him as a cheaper, reliable Plan B if Eze does not come through.
As per reports that Ademola Lookman is valued at around €50 million, making him a more affordable option for a squad that is already shaping up to fight for the title.
