Right now, it would seem as if Arsenal are alert to all opportunities in the final moments before the transfer window slams shut on Friday evening.
Aaron Ramsdale and Eddie Nketiah are both set to leave Arsenal imminently according to reports, presenting a few opportunities for Edu.
Not only will Arsenal have raised funds from the deals, but they would have also cleared space in what could be considered a bloated squad.
There’s certainly no doubt that Ramsdale will need replacing, Arsenal can’t begin the new season without a number two.
But perhaps there’s now also an opportunity to be hard up top – sources seem confident that Arsenal will add an attacker too.
The Gunners are thought to be targeting a deal for a winger who can add depth to Arteta’s squad without ‘rocking the boat’, so to speak.
Mystery Premier League side launch bid for Arsenal target Kingsley Coman
Amid the list of names who could arrive in north London, Arsenal have been offered the chance to sign Kingsley Coman, who could represent a very smart move.
Coman’s agent recently denied Saudi Arabia links, saying the 28-year-old hasn’t agreed any deal to leave Bayern Munich just yet.

However, it would seem as if Coman is available, and Sky Sports journalist Dharmesh Sheth has now claimed that an ‘unnamed’ Premier League side are exploring a deal.
The journalist shared his update on X, saying that Barcelona have also enquired – perhaps given that they’ve just missed out on Federico Chiesa to Liverpool.
Sheth said: “Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman weighing up his options after Al-Hilal made big offer. Barcelona have enquired.
“An unnamed Premier League club have explored conditions of a deal. Staying at Bayern not ruled out.”
Could Arsenal be the unnamed club chasing Kingsley Coman?
Although the injuries he’s endured over the past few seasons could be a concern, an ‘outstanding’ talent like Coman could be ideal for Arsenal on a short-term basis.
Arsenal have a decorated history with exceptional French forwards, and Coman’s trickery would be very welcome in north London.
As mentioned, a permanent move might prove a hindrance for Arsenal in time, though.
It has to be imagined that Arsenal will invest heavily in their attack next summer when Leandro Trossard will then be 30-years-old.
And perhaps having Coman on board beyond this season could limit Edu and Arteta when it comes to adding one or two more world-class faces.
