Arsenal’s attacking lineup has been severely impacted by injuries, with Kai Havertz suffering a season-ending hamstring tear during a training session in Dubai. This setback leaves manager Mikel Arteta with limited forward options, as Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli, and Bukayo Saka are also sidelined.
In response, Arsenal is exploring the free agent market to bolster their attack. Several unattached strikers could be considered:
Diego Costa: The 36-year-old former Chelsea and Atlético Madrid forward is known for his physicality and goal-scoring prowess.
Lucas PĂ©rez: At 36, the Spanish striker has previous Premier League experience with Arsenal and could offer a short-term solution.
Kevin Gameiro: The 37-year-old Frenchman, formerly of Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain, is recognized for his agility and finishing skills.
Maxi GĂłmez: The 28-year-old Uruguayan forward, previously with Valencia, is known for his aerial ability and could provide a strong presence up front.
Mariano DĂaz: At 31, the Dominican-Spanish striker has experience with Real Madrid and could add depth to Arsenal’s attacking options.
Wissam Ben Yedder: The 34-year-old French forward, formerly of Monaco, is known for his technical skills and goal-scoring record.
While these players are currently without clubs, their experience and skills could offer Arsenal valuable options to navigate the remainder of the season amid their injury crisis.Â
