Kai Havertz will undoubtedly lead Arsenal’s attack next season, following a revival in the last few months that saw him confirm his place in Mikel Arteta’s attack.
Nonetheless, Arsenal, which will be contending on numerous fronts, will require someone to fill in for the German international when he is unavailable. Gabriel Jesus could be that option, but his fitness and sharpness in front of goal may be a concern. The Gunners could benefit from splashing cash to recruit a deputy for Havertz, which is why a £35 million Karim Adeyemi move appears to be a transfer opportunity.
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing the German forward. Reports, however, suggest that the forward is looking for a Champions League football club; Chelsea (and even Manchester United), who will not have Champions League football next season, may find it difficult to convince him to join them.
Arsenal’s desire to add another striker option should push them ahead of Liverpool in the race for Adeyemi. The Borrussia Dortmund addition may be a shrewd signing for the North Londoners, as his former RB Salzburg coach Matthias Jaissle hinted at on the Bundesliga website
Last season, Arsenal’s early troubles in front of goal lost them the title fight, so if there’s a possibility to bolster their striking options, I suppose they should take advantage.

His STATs are unbelievably poor.
Not happening.
I agree nothing to write home about. Arsenal needs an attacking midfielder and not a striker. The problem is more to do with breaking down packed defenses. We scored more than ever and our goals for & GD was not significantly different. GET A V. GOOD AM
As much as we need personnel to prosecute the next league season it cant just be anyone.
He played well in the CL final as a winger. He looks like the sort of player who’s great for opening teams up, but his finishing is poor. Imagine he’d frustrate fans here, a bit like gervinho.
Winger is his natural position Davi. He had a really good debut season, but last season he seemed to go backwards a bit in the Bundesliga.
