According to Fichajes.net, Arsenal is interested in signing Marcus Thuram from Inter Milan in January 2025. Prior to this, the Gunners have lacked a natural finisher in their attacking line this season.
The Frenchman joined Inter Milan on a free transfer from Borussia Mönchengladbach in July 2023 and has become a regular for the Serie A giants. This season, Thuram has been impressive in attack, scoring 13 goals and providing 6 assists in 21 games.
His offensive talent has not gone unnoticed, as the Gunners hope to sign him to strengthen the center-forward position. The Frenchman can play as a striker and on the left wing when needed. Therefore, his versatility can alleviate Arteta's firepower and flexible tactics in attack.
The report claims that the Gunners currently lack the presence of a lethal finisher due to Kayo's injury. It is believed that if Thuram is signed, he can enter the attack and improve scoring ability.
Due to their excellent start to the season in Serie A and the Champions League, Inter Milan may be reluctant to sell Thuram. However, a lucrative offer could help convince them to part with the Frenchman.
Thuram's contract with Inter Milan expires in June 2028, and the transfer market values him at 75 million euros.
"It's hard to find a stronger player than him in the league" - Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta praised Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka in this way.
Arteta praised winger Saka for his outstanding performance after becoming a regular at the Emirates. Saka has become one of the game-changing players in the Gunners' attack this season.
In the pre-match press conference before the Premier League match against Ipswich, Arteta said (via Fabrizio Romano):
"When you look back at his six-year history, it's incredible. It's hard to find a stronger player than him in the league, especially at his age."
He also talked about Kayo's injury:
"This is an injury, he will be fine."
Saka has played 24 times for Arsenal this season, scoring 9 goals and providing 13 assists. The Englishman is recovering from a hamstring injury and may be out for a few weeks.
