The hope is that Arsenal can win the league next season. Lessons have been learned from the failed PL title pursuit last season, and the quick move to inject quality into the squad justifies it. Declan Rice, Kai Havertz, and Jurrien Timber have joined, and there’s talk of other signings being completed, which leads me to the question of which one signing you think if Arsenal were to close, they would be sure of winning the league next season. Peterborough United chairman Darragh MacAnthony says if Arteta had a Harry Kane-like striker, it would almost be certain they’d win the league.
MacAnthony said so while insinuating that Harry Kane, who is being linked with a move away from Spurs, is a player the Kroenkes would have done everything to sign if there wasn’t a rivalry between Arsenal and Tottenham.
“[Harry Kane] He’s a bargain at £100 million for any top-four side,” the Peterborough chairman said on talkSPORT. “Let’s be honest, if there wasn’t such a rivalry between Spurs and Arsenal, Arsenal would be writing a cheque.
“Stan Kroenke and his son mean business; they’re winning titles all over the world with all their franchises. Arsenal need a Kane.
“If Kane was in Arsenal’s team, that title race would now go the other way—it would be Arsenal winning the league.”
👀 "Arsenal need a Kane!"
🏆 "If Kane was in Arsenal's team, it would be Arsenal winning the Premier League!"

There’s a lot of uncertainty about what transfer moves Arteta seeks to close before September 1, but with the midfield and defence looking stronger, why can’t he only sign a Harry Kane-like striker?

It will be a very good deal should Arsenal buy a player like Harry Kane, a player that can give you 30 goals in a season is sure to win titles for you
Help Barca out with their finances and lift Lewandowski out of there. Although would be funny if Kane broke the prem scoring record as an Arsenal player totally ripping his Spurs legacy up with a trophy or 2 to boot 😆
You sure you’re an Arsenal fan?
I remember when Sol Campbell came to Arsenal from the Spuds. The Judas chants and abuse he got when the two teams met, or when he was just caught in public by spurs fans was terrible. I doubt it would be different today. As much as he would be good for us I don’t think he would move to the best club in North London anyway!
GR, maybe more acceptable given Kane was an Arsenal junior. Arsenal loses nothing by making an approach.
Now this transfer would be more realistic then the Mbappe one.
Just one major stumbling block, Levy. Sooner or later he will have to show his hand. Time is running out. There is already hostility & disagreement @ Spuds top hierachy.
Just wondering where Kane would end up. I can see him looking stylish in Arabian attire riding a camel or Mercedez.
You can’t sign a player “like” Harry Kane. There’s only Lewandowski you can really compare him to. But its a valid question to ask what the impact would be if Arsenal had a genuine centre forward. I suspect if they’d had Ivan Tony last season it might have made a real difference.
Arsenal don’t need Kane I don’t think so because Gabriel Jesus is better than Kane
Yes, we’d have a very good chance at the title with kane in our side – never going to happen, though. It wouldn’t be worth it for him because he could make a less controversial move and win the title with someone else.
