Yes, we are comfortable with Kai Havertz as the No. 9, but Arsenal may benefit from a talented striker to back him up next season. Every day, we have a new striker transfer target; Serhou Guirassy, of Stuttgart, is the latest report we are seeing.
⚫️🟡 In the race for Serhou #Guirassy, Borussia Dortmund fear FC Arsenal the most – at this stage!
▫️Guirassy has not yet made a final decision. No club has received his commitment as of this evening. Dortmund has made it clear to him that he is their desired striker for this… pic.twitter.com/ikPrR78gDB

ADMIN COMMENT
So here are some simple rules which I must insist commenters follow….
You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.
CALLING ALL ARSENAL FANS! Anyone who would like to contribute an Article or Video opinion piece on JustArsenal, please contact us through this link…
Every kid with a number nine printed in his back is now link with us.
But with a strong belief The big German best days is yet to come, the media outlets could be just be crying wolf’s.
Absolutely bring him in, Havertz is clearly limited in the CF role and this guy is one of the top scorers in Europe, in the league most like the PL. Whoever wrote they’d prefer Nketiah doesn’t know anything about football, scoring in big games, handling pressure, xG, clearly just a biased article. Under £20m and next season if it doesn’t work out out we could sell him for a profit and put the money toward Sesko. Please stop making Havertz the new Ozil by deliberately baiting fans on either side, he’s good but as a 9 we need a more efficient option in front of goal who can score from different angles and positions, that is without a doubt SG.
“absolutely bring him in”…”one of the top goal scorers in Europe”
based on what, one good season in the Bundesliga
2022/23 11 goals in 23 league games
2021/22 9 goals in 37 league games
2020/21 10 goals in 27…
hmmm…
“more efficient option in front of goal”…”that is without a doubt [Serhou Guirassy]”
disaster written all over it
Disaster, at under £20m? You’re a joke if you think that. If we’re basing Havertz stats off half a season and Gyokeres from 1.5 seasons, why not take one full season from Guirassy? He’s come into his prime and if it doesn’t work he’ll still have teams interested in him next summer. It’s smart business. If you’re going to tell people they’re wrong try using something with weight, else your responses have ‘disaster’ written all over them.
“if it doesn’t work” then Arsenal have blown our PL title chances
it is not the £20m at stake but Arsenal’s season and ending our trophy drought
Arsenal is about quality not just numbers of bodies
the players has had one purple patch over 4 seasons (probably more), that is no basis to place Arsenal goal scoring in his hands
if the player reverts to normal form then Arsenal go backwards, not forwards
nothing smart about that
Wow mate you don’t know a thing about football.
Guirassy’s stats are way better than KH, and hes a bargain.
Makes sense to spend low risk with potential maximum reward.
Going into next season with KH is crazy, especially if only back up is Jesus/EN! We need potency in front of goal, its painfully obvious.
What if KH reverts to type given his last four seasons? By your logic KH is a bugger risk both stat and money wise.
“if it doesn’t work” why pick up on that? you could apply that to relying solely on Kai, if that doesn’t work we have blown our pl chances. Use your loaf son
Still far better than Havertz stats across 3 seasons and isn’t that the actual point?
Arsenal1886 you clearly dont watch bundesliga. Here in Germany he was incredible season last. All types of goals, left foot right foot headers in the box and outside the box. Link up and hold up play very good. His stats are better this season as he got better service and the team was stronger and at Arsenal there are more chances for him to finish. I loved Kai when he was here but Guirassy is a real goalscorer not a false nine which is what kai is at Arsenal. Why dont you want your team to have real striker? madness
No chance!
He’ll be signing for Dortmund.
