3. Won’t break the bank

Unlike the rumoured prices for players such as Gabriel Jesus (£55m), Victor Osimhen (£77m), and Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£55m), Scamacca would be a cheaper alternative for the Gunners.

Still not blessed with the enormous transfer war chest of other clubs and with no Champions League to entice the top-quality players for less money, Scamacca could be available for £40m. Compare that to the price tag of Calvert-Lewin, and it is £15m cheaper.

It is still thought that Gabriel Jesus is the number one target for the Gunners this summer, but Scamacca, while cheap, is still a talented player. Still only 23-years-old and fresh off a superb season with Sassuolo, it would constitute good business.
