Arsenal plan attacker transfer approach and waiting for possible loan opportunity for Brazilian winger Rodrygo.
Eze on the radar as Arteta seeks fresh spark
Arsenal are working over a bid for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze. Head coach Mikel Arteta is looking to bring in a top attacking talent for the new season. Eze has been in great form at Palace with his creativity and dribbling ability.
The Gunners see him as a player who can step in tough times. He can also operate on the left, where Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard have struggled for form.
Last season, Arsenal lost their flow due to injuries. Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka all missed key part of the campaign. Due to that, Arteta was asked to rotate and adjust in attack. That said, adding a player like Eze could be a give his side a huge boost.
The North London side has been busy making new signings this summer. But, there’s still a feeling in that one more attacking option could make all the difference.
🚨 @SamiMokbel_BBC:
Arsenal's interest in Rodrygo is absolutely genuine. 🇧🇷
But the obstacle lies in the cost and salary, which will amount to £250k-a-week, if not more. 💰
If it were a loan, there would have to be some kind of commitment. (Obligation). 🤝 pic.twitter.com/7QhwgpSLmc

Waiting on Brazilian winger for loan move
In addition to Eze, Gunners are tracking the status of **Real Madrid**‘s Brazilian winger Rodrygo Goes. Rodrygo’s future in Spain is somewhat uncertain at this time.
As per the Times, if a loan became a possibility, no doubt Arsenal would pounce, .
Rodrygo’s speed, ability to move in and out and being able to play anywhere across the front line are all parts of what makes him a great option for Arteta. Arsenal’s pre-season has had some hit and miss form.
Either Eze, Rodrygo or both, adding an extra attacking options could be very important. Arteta’s side must be willing to do better than last season and finally lift the title. The transfer window is nearing a close. But, Arsenal’s intent is clear, they want firepower. They’re prepared to be patient to get the right deal.
