Report: Arsenal is competing with English Premier League clubs and Euro giants to sign a risky striker

Arsenal are said to be one of the clubs competing for potential Brighton striker Ivan Ferguson transferwho seems like a man in demand.

There appears to be increasing interest in Ferguson as we approach the end of the January transfer window, And the Gunners could be one name to watch Amidst their issues are at the forefront.

Gabriel Jesus recently suffered a serious injury, while Bukayo Saka is also not expected to return particularly soon, leaving Mikel Arteta’s side a little desperate for goals.

“I was a Manchester United fan when I was a kid, but I knew I had to leave after just one training session!” -What was the flop for Manchester United that led to this huge reveal?

Ferguson is not the most exciting name Arsenal fans would have liked to see, but the Ireland international is perhaps more realistic than others such as Alexander Isak and Benjamin Sisko.

according to Foot marketFerguson is wanted not only by Arsenal, but also by Marseille, Fulham and West Ham.

A transfer for Ivan Ferguson is certainly not what Arsenal need

Even if some depth in attack would be beneficial for Arsenal, it is difficult to see Ferguson really having the ability to make the kind of positive impact the north London giants need right now.

The 20-year-old looked like a top prospect when he made his debut, but he is experiencing a real goalscoring drought at the moment, and Brighton probably wouldn’t be too bothered about losing him.

Ferguson may still be able to revive his career, but Arsenal need someone who knows he is the real deal and can deliver success immediately.
