Arsenal already have an impressive choice of attacking players in their squad.
The likes of Gabriel Jesus, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard and Eddie Nketiah are all dangerous.
However, Arsenal could potentially bring an outstanding young striker to the Emirates for a relatively low fee.
Jonathan David has been in outstanding form for Lille this season.
The 23-year-old has registered 21 goals and four assists from 32 outings in all competitions.
David has been prolific throughout his career, with 90 goals and 24 assists from 211 senior club appearances.
He is also shining at international level, with 24 goals from 40 Canada caps.
As a result, there is plenty of interest in David from Arsenal and other suitors.
Calciomercato.it has recently provided an update on the Gunners’ interest in the Canadian.
David is apparently a player who AC Milan are eyeing ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Rossoneri will ‘have to beat’ the competition from Premier League sides, ‘especially from Arsenal’.
Better still, Lille are ‘ready to sell’ David in the summer.
‘A lot of interest’
Previous reports have suggested that the striker’s price tag could fall below the £45million mark.
“I think it’s fair to say that the price tag for David may have been a little unrealistic last summer,” Jonathan Johnson recently said on CaughtOffside.
“We were talking upwards of maybe €70m for a player who went through quite a lengthy goal drought during last season.
“He’s got back to a good level of consistency this season, and there’s a lot of interest in him now from clubs in Germany.
“I think clubs will also be aware now that his price tag will most likely have been slashed to something below €50m.”
David is ‘one of Europe’s hottest goalscoring properties’ and Arsenal should not pass up the opportunity to sign him in the summer.
