Arsenal will be considering their January transfer window plans as we're less than two months away from the window opening. Mikel Arteta's side need more in attack, especially considering they've already suffered several injuries.
Bukayo Saka, Christos Tzolis and Kai Havertz have all missed time so far this season, and as the Gunners contend for the Champions League and Premier League, Arteta needs to make sure he's got cover.
Furthermore, the Gunners have a goalscoring problem, as they have only netted 15 times in the Premier League this season, which is 11 times less than Brighton, and six times less than Manchester City.
Arsenal have been linked with Bournemouth's Kroupi
One name who's emerged on the list of potential January targets is Bournemouth forward Junior Kroupi, who's attracted the attention of several clubs worldwide. The 20-year-old suffered a foot injury, which required surgery in the summer, and only returned last month.
His resume is impressive though, as last season, he scored 13 league goals for Bournemouth in 33 games, and has become one of the most promising young attackers in Europe.
It's understood that Bayern and PSG are both keen on the French international too, although Bournemouth have made it clear that he's not for sale. So, Arsenal may have to look elsewhere for more attacking firepower.
Arsenal could turn to Endrick instead
Real Madrid attacker Endrick was tentativley linked with a move to the Premier League last season, and in the summer, as his role at the Bernabeu never became what he imaged. He joined at Real Madrid in 2024.
However, in his first two years, he was more of a bench player, and so spent the second half of last season on loan ayt Lyon. the Brazil international is now back at the Bernabeu, and has made seven appearances so far this season, starting just one game.
According to talkSPORT, Arsenal are keeping tabs on the attacker and could make a move in January, which would most likely be a loan move. The benefit for Arteta in signing a player like Endrick is that he's a versatile attacker.
He can play that striker/centre-forward role that Kai Havertz plays so well, but he can also play as a winger on both flanks, which could be perfect if the Gunners suffer more injuries to key players during the business end of the season.
Furthermore, if he were able to find a role at Arsenal, a permanent move could be on the cards, and Arsenal could unlock the Brazilian wonderkid that was promised after he joined Madrid over two years ago.
