With the latest report from LondonFootball.com, Arsenal Football Club's desire to bring in a new striker before the summer transfer window closes has grown stronger after suffering the plight of striker Jesus' injury absence. Especially if another striker, Nketiah, also chooses to leave the club, then Arsenal's need to strengthen their forward line will become even more urgent.
Against this backdrop, Swedish international striker Jekyll and Hyde (assumed name, actually subject to official announcement) has become one of Arsenal's reinforcement targets. The highly effective goalscorer was in excellent form for Sporting Portugal last season, making 50 appearances and scoring a staggering 43 goals, showing great scoring ability and adaptability to the game. In addition, Zekeres has been linked with a move to Arsenal for the past 18 months, which makes this deal look even more of a done deal.
Arsenal are in dire need of a goal scorer with a steady output of goals to fill the void left by Jesus' injury, and Zekerysh is the ideal candidate to fit the bill. He has not only proved his strength in Sporting Portugal, but also contributed key goals for the Swedish national team in the international arena. If Arsenal can go all out in pursuit of the Swedish striker, I believe Zekeresch will be able to quickly find his place in the Gunners' lineup and bring the needed offensive firepower to the team.
