Arsenal is considering a January move for Orlando City star Facundo Torres.
Mikel Arteta’s men are flying high in the Premier League and have been doing so because of the form of their top players.
Some of them have been involved in too many matches because there is a lack of good alternatives for them.
This could be a problem in the second half of the season and the Gunners want to solve that by adding some new names to their group in the next transfer window.
Several players are on their radar now and Torres is the latest to be added to their shopping list ahead of the next transfer window.
Standard Sports reports Arsenal scouted the 22-year-old in the last MLS season and they could begin talks with his entourage over a summer move soon.
He scored nine goals and provided eight assists in 33 MLS games in the 2022 season and Arsenal believes he could add more to their squad if he moves to London.
Just Arsenal Opinion
We need new players to improve our chances of ending this season well and we might need to add them to our squad in the next transfer window.
Many Arsenal fans will not know Torres, but if our scouts believe he is worth it, then we look forward to seeing him in our shirt.
Arsenal can actually buy a striker and get Jesus to play as a winger instead
I’m in the States and privy to MLS. Those numbers he is putting up are not very flattering for being a B league competition to be honest.
Juice doesn’t seem worth the squeeze, wouldn’t we be better off having the coaching staff working with Marquinhos to get him ready?
Perhaps Flores upon his return or Balogun when he comes back to the club?
Is Torres really better than the players we already have who are trying to break through?
10 – 15 million max. Facundo is a decent winger. Would be a calculated risk.
Not yet another left footed right winger?Stick with Marquinhos and Nelson and focus on an athletic ball winning midfielder.
