Arsenal made a bold move in the summer by bringing in Raheem Sterling and Neto on loan from Chelsea and AFC Bournemouth, respectively. However, neither player has managed to secure a regular spot in Mikel Arteta’s starting lineup. Sterling has only appeared nine times for the Gunners, scoring one goal and providing two assists. Neto, the goalkeeper, is yet to make an appearance on the field.
With the January transfer window fast approaching, Arsenal may have to make a tough decision. Reports suggest that Brighton and Hove Albion’s Evan Ferguson is available for a loan move. The 20-year-old striker has been struggling to get playing time at Brighton and could be seeking a temporary move to gain more experience.
Valued at £60 million, Ferguson is a highly promising player who has attracted attention for his talent. Despite facing challenges with injuries and form, he could be a valuable addition to Arsenal’s squad. While Brighton may not be willing to let him go permanently, a loan move with an option to buy could be on the cards for the Gunners.
Arsenal has been lacking a clinical striker for some time, and Ferguson could be the solution they have been searching for. However, in order to bring him in, the Gunners would have to consider terminating one of their current loan deals as Premier League rules only allow two loan players per season.
The potential addition of Ferguson could provide Arteta with the attacking options he needs to strengthen the team. As the January transfer window approaches, Arsenal will have to weigh their options carefully and make a decision that will benefit the team in the long run. Stay tuned for more updates on Arsenal’s transfer plans as the winter window draws closer.
