Arsenal's pursuit of a new striker has taken yet another twist as the Gunners explore alternative options to their top target, Alexander Isak.
The Newcastle United forward, who reportedly remains Mikel Arteta’s primary transfer target, could prove challenging to acquire, prompting the North London club to cast their net wider.
Among those alternatives is Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has been linked with a move to Newcastle United for some time. With the Toffees striker’s contract expiring in 2024 and no agreement on an extension in sight, Arsenal could potentially capitalize on the situation to secure his signature.
The intricate web of transfer negotiations is far from straightforward, but Arsenal seems determined to secure a top-class striker this summer. While Isak remains the preferred option, the Gunners are wise to explore alternative routes, with the likes of Sesko and Calvert-Lewin presenting exciting possibilities.
It is worth noting that each player comes with their own unique set of challenges, ranging from release clauses to contract lengths. However, with Arteta at the helm and a hungry squad eager to compete for silverware, Arsenal's ambition and resolve in the transfer market will be key factors in their quest for success.
