Arsenal is interested in signing Brighton striker, Joao Pedro, during the summer transfer window, and the Seagulls are ready to sell it this summer at the right price.
According to a report by The Sun, they set a requested price of 70 million pounds sterling for the 23 -year -old Brazilian. The report says Liverpool is also interested in the player.
Arsenal needs to attack reinforcements
The player has 10 goals in his name in the Premier League this season, and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for Arsenal. They need more peak in the last third, and the Brazilian will add goals and creativity to the side. He could prove to be an upgrade of his compatriot Gabriel Jesus, who has not been able to score goals in a coherent manner.
The South American was described as an “incredible football player” by Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler.
Pedro is only 23 years old and he could improve with coaching and experience. He could become a reliable premier league attacker with good advice. It remains to be seen if Arsenal is ready to pay 70 million pounds sterling for him. It is a substantial sum of money for a player who is still not proven at the highest level.
Arsenal will probably turn to him for a more reasonable sum of money this summer. It remains to be seen how the situation is developing. Chelsea also examined the Brazilian.
Arsenal could use Joao Pedro
To convince the attacker to join the club will not be difficult for Arsenal. They are among the biggest clubs in the world and will want to compete at a high level with them. They could offer him the platform to participate in the Champions League and also fight for the title of the League.
Arsenal has been linked to several strikers this summer, and it will be interesting to see who they will end up signing. The signature of a goalscorer will be a priority for them, before the summer transfer window.
