Desperate to find a solution to their striker woes, Arsenal have reportedly set their sights on former Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino.

With injuries ravaging Mikel Arteta’s attacking options, the Gunners are left with limited choices in the final third. Their current attacking lineup consists of Leandro Trossard, 17-year-old prospect Ethan Nwaneri, and an out-of-form Raheem Sterling. Meanwhile, Gabriel Jesus, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, and Kai Havertz are all sidelined.

Although the winter transfer window has closed, Arsenal still have the option to sign free agents. According to Football.London, citing sources in Brazil, the North London club is closely monitoring Firmino’s situation. The 33-year-old forward is reportedly negotiating an early contract termination with Al-Ahli, as he has struggled to settle in Saudi Arabia since leaving Liverpool in 2023 after eight successful seasons.

However, Arsenal may face competition for Firmino’s signature, with Brazilian giants Flamengo also expressing interest in securing his services.

With Arsenal still fighting for silverware this season, securing an experienced forward like Firmino could prove to be a much-needed boost for Arteta’s squad.
