Arsenal has been linked with a move for Sporting CP’s Marcus Edwards as the attacker eyes a return to the Premier League.
Edwards left Tottenham to move to Portugal in 2019, and that decision has turned out to be a good one for his development.
According to O’Jogo, after spending the last five years in Portugal, Edwards now wants to return to the Premier League. He believes he has gained enough experience to succeed in the English top flight.
Arsenal is continually looking for new talents to bolster their squad, and the report indicates that the 25-year-old is on their radar.
The Gunners are currently in talks to sign several players and have shown interest in some talents at Sporting CP.
However, it remains unclear if Edwards is a priority transfer target for them and whether they will eventually make a move to add him to their squad.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Edwards has done well since moving to Portugal, and we have also watched him deliver some fine performances in Europe.
He is 25 now and would be a very experienced backup to have on our bench to battle our attackers for a starting spot.
However, we have to be sure he will deliver before adding him to our group.

Arsenal going back to Sporting CP this summer? To stop for their Marcus Edwards’ signature. But coming so soon after they reportedly been sobbed by their Benjamin Sesko. Who seemingly is looking won’t join Arsenal this summer.
Is having me to wonder can’t Arsenal shop elsewhere for a new top class quality striker’s signing this summer? Ofcouse i believe they can.
But if is Edward that Arteta finally wants to settle for. And Sporting sells him to Arsenal. No prejudice from me. For, I am with my club Arsenal supporting them.
While I appreciate the complexities of the player and sometimes marketing stories, by agents, I’m toning down my expectations a bit on all names being linked to us.
Looks like our tradition of being linked with all the who’s who in the world football talents only to turn up with some questionable signs looks to be lingering still.
