Arsenal considering a move for Serge Gnabry
It’s been a transfer window full of surprises, and Arsenal could be set to carry on this trend.
According to the football transfer rumours in British media, Arsenal are considering a move for Bayern Munich winger Serge Gnabry.
The Germany international joined Bayern from Werder Bremen for a fee in the region of 8 million euros in July 2017. His contract is set to expire at the end of the 2022/23 campaign.
The winger finished the 2021/22 season with a tally of 17 goals and 10 assists from 45 matches across all competitions.
He is considered to be one of the best wingers in Germany. His record for Germany is also impressive. Gnabry has scored 20 goals in 34 matches for Germany at senior level.
Given that his contract is expiring next summer and he has not yet signed an extension, the rumors have only heated up in recent weeks. Bayern, however, would prefer to sell him in this transfer window than lose him on a free in the next summer, so their asking price may not be too high.
The Gunners are looking to sign a winger and have identified the 26-year-old as potential transfer target.
Mikel Arteta is a firm fan of Bayern winger and Arsenal could make a move for the player if the financial aspect makes sense.
Arsenal are in the market for just a handful of statement signings who can improve the first-team.
The former Werder Bremen man is a dynamic winger, who possesses good technical skills and ball control. His versatile nature can help the manager to be more flexible with the formations.
According to the report, “Arsenal are keeping tabs on Bayern Munich winger Serge Gnabry. The Gunners are searching for a winger after missing out on Leeds star Raphinha. The Brazil international wants to join Barcelona, although Chelsea have put forward the biggest transfer offer to Leeds. Gnabry, who came through the Arsenal academy, has just 12 months remaining on his contract at Bayern. According to the Express, Mikel Arteta has considered bringing Gnabry back to the Emirates. Bayern have acknowledged that Gnabry could leave this summer due to his contract stand-off. Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City have also been linked with Gnabry.”
