Arsenal Linked With Summer Raid On Man City
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is set to join the chase to sign Man City striker Eden Dzeko this summer as he looks to add to his strike-force at the end of the season
Despite the transfer window being closed there is still plenty of gossip doing the rounds in the newspapers so we’ll keep you up-to-date with the latest transfer rumours. Today, Arsenal are linked with a move for Manchester City striker Eden Dzeko.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is set to join the chase to sign Manchester City striker Eden Dzeko as he looks to add to his strike-force this summer, according to the Express.
The Gunners have endured a difficult season having been knocked out of the domestic cup competitions to lower league opposition, knocked out of the Champions League at the last 16 stage and are currently battling it out with Tottenham, Chelsea and Everton for a place in the top-four.
It appears that boss Arsene Wenger will look to shake things up in the summer in a bid to turn his squad back in to trophy challengers again and the Express claim the Frenchman is keeping an eye on Dzeko’s situation at City ahead of a potential swoop at the end of the season.
The Bosnian made a big-money move to the Etihad Stadium in January 2011 from German outfit Wolsburg but has failed to establish himself as a regular in Roberto Mancini’s side, instead earning a reputation as something of a ‘super-sub’ during his two-and-a-half years in England.
The newspaper suggests Dzeko could leave this summer with Arsenal set to join Borussia Dortmund and Napoli in showing an interest in the 27-year-old, but a potential stumbling block could be the strikers asking price with the defending Premier League champions believed to be looking to recoup the majority of the £27m they paid.
