Arsenal and Chelsea are reportedly in the market for top signings up front, and have apparently identified a very similar list of targets, according to CaughtOffside.
Arsenal and Chelsea are reportedly targeting the same three players as they look to bolster their squads for the upcoming season. Among these targets is a star who recently made headlines by terrorizing Liverpool in a recent match.
Alexander Isak, the Newcastle United front-man, has caught the eye of both London clubs with his impressive performances. In a recent match against Liverpool, Isak scored a superb goal and provided an assist, showcasing his all-round abilities up front. His performance has solidified his reputation as one of the finest center-forwards in Europe.
While Isak is a top priority, both Arsenal and Chelsea are also considering other options due to his high asking price of around €100 million.
The alternatives include:
1. Victor Osimhen (Galatasaray): Known for his goal-scoring prowess, Osimhen is anticipated to be available for around €75 million.
2. Dusan Vlahovic (Juventus): Another prolific striker, Vlahovic is also expected to be within the same price range as Osimhen.
Securing these players might not be straightforward, as both clubs will need to navigate financial negotiations and potential competition from other top clubs. However, the allure of adding such high-caliber talent to their squads is a strong motivator for Arsenal and Chelsea.
As the transfer window approaches, it will be interesting to see how these pursuits unfold. Will Arsenal and Chelsea be able to secure their desired targets, or will they need to explore other options? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: the race for top talent is heating up in the Premier League.
