As far as the attack is concerned, the North Londoners need a playmaker and a center forward before the summer transfer window closes.
According to reports doing rounds in the media (Express via La Gazzetta Dello Sport via Telegraph), Arsene Wenger is looking to seal the signing of Real Madrid superstar James Rodriguez.
The Colombian international is a versatile attacker who will largely amplify the quality of Arsenal’s already brilliant attack. The idea of James, Ozil and Alexis lining up in the attacking midfield is too mouth-watering for the supporters.
Last season, the South American star featured in 26 league games for the Los Blancos, scored 7 goals and also provided 8 assists.
He only started 17 La Liga games last season. Moreover, Zidane preferred Marco Asensio ahead of James in his starting XI against Sevilla last night. In such a scenario, a move away from the Bernabeu should be fruitful for the former Porto attacker.
Arsenal will likely have to break their club transfer record to sign the 25-year-old star who is rated (Daily Mail via Marca) around 67 million pounds ($87million).
