Chelsea and Arsenal have been linked with numerous strikers in the recent months. Both of the london clubs are keen to sign striker. As of now, there are 4 strikers who have interest from both of these Premier League giants.
Chelsea are keen to add another striker despite the top form of Nicolas Jackson. Christopher Nkunku who plays as backup striker is linked with away move. But, the Blues going after another top striker instead of someone who can play as a backup does not seem right. Nevertheless, the Blues are known for taking bold decisions.
On the other hand, Arsenal are in desperate need of striker. Jesus has been out of form since long term whereas Havertz who was playing as make shift striker has experienced dip in the form. As of now, Gunners definately need a clinical striker if they want to challenge for the title.
Who are the 4 common strikers linked with both Arsenal and Chelsea?
First big name is the striker who is wanted by almost every top club in Europe. He is none other than Viktor Gyokeres who has scored 60 goals in 2024. Gyokeres very likely seems to join a top club next year and a move to Premier League can be expected.
The second big name is another striker from Sweden who has already proved himself in Premier League. He is Alexander Isak who has been superb for Newcastle and is top target for Arsenal. In the recent days, Chelsea have also joined the race for him.
Third big name is Chelsea’s favourite striker Victor Osimhen who they tried very hard to sign this summer. Osimhen is currently at Galatasaray on loan but is very unlikely to join the Turkish club permanently next year.
The last striker in the list is Dusan Vlahovic. Vlahovic and Juventus are finding it hard to agree about contract extension. This has given Chelsea and Arsenal a chance to secure his signature and welcome him to England next year.
