The summer transfer window is in full swing and Arsenal is determined to make some big signings. Former player Bacary Sagna has offered some advice to his old club, urging them to prioritize a physical striker like Olivier Giroud. The team is eager to finally clinch the Premier League title after coming close in the past two seasons.
One area that needs improvement for Arsenal is their striker position. Last season, both Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah only scored a combined nine league goals. While Kai Havertz did fill in as a striker at times, Sagna believes that a more physical presence is needed to add another dimension to their attacking options.
In an interview with Paddy Power, Sagna expressed his thoughts on Arsenal's playing style. He believes that they need to be stronger and more aggressive when attacking. While they have a strong possession-based game, Sagna thinks they could benefit from crossing the ball more.
Sagna also mentioned his admiration for Olivier Giroud, who spent six years at Arsenal. He sees Giroud as the perfect fit for the team, with his physicality and ability to hold the ball. Sagna believes that Giroud could provide support in both offensive and defensive situations, making him a valuable addition to the team.
Aside from a striker, Arsenal is also looking to sign a versatile defender and a central midfielder. They were in talks with Bologna and Italy defender Riccardo Calafiori, but the deal has hit a snag due to differences in valuation and Jakub Kiwior's reluctance to join Bologna as part of the deal.
