Arsenal has set its sights on Mateo Retegui as its main target to strengthen the forward line next summer. The Atalanta striker, one of the big surprises in Serie A, has sparked the interest of the London club, which has already initiated contacts with the Italian team to explore his signing.
However, the Gunners are not alone in the race, as Manchester United has also shown interest in the Italian international, anticipating a tough competition for his transfer.
Mikel Arteta Wants a New Forward
The team under Mikel Arteta has prioritized the addition of a forward after failing to finalize any signings in the last transfer window. The need to reinforce the attack has become more urgent following Kai Havertz's injury, which has limited the club's offensive options. Although names like Benjamin Sesko, Alexander Isak, and Viktor Gyokeres have been linked with Arsenal, the price of these players could be a hurdle, making Retegui a more accessible option.
The Argentine forward, who has become an Italian citizen, has had a brilliant season with Atalanta, amassing 23 goal contributions in 22 appearances. His performance has positioned him as one of the standout forwards in the Italian championship, drawing the attention of several European teams. With a market value close to 60 million euros, Arsenal deems his signing feasible compared to other targets.
