Thursday Morning Done Deal: Arsenal’s new acquisition is now in London Colney to finish Arsenal’s medical tomorrow; an announcement will be made within the next two hours.

Arsenal did their best to steady the ship when they returned to Premier League action this month, scoring five goals while maintaining a clean sheet against Crystal Palace.

Normally, scoring five goals in a game would put an end to any notion of a misfiring assault, and although it may have done so for Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus left the pitch without a goal, thus the chatter about him has continued.

Worse, if Mikel Arteta and Edu can get their hands on the newest player rumored to join N5 this year, the Brazilian may lose his place in the team.

Arsenal look to the Continent for a new source of goals
According to a report from the Italian publication Corriere Di Bologna (via TEAMtalk), Arsenal are one of a number of clubs interested in signing Bologna’s terrifically exciting young forward, Joshua Zirkzee.

Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United are among the other clubs interested in signing the Dutch number nine, but according to this source, the Gunners and Manchester United are ‘above all’.

The challenge from the Red Devils is already difficult enough for the north Londoners, but they may also have to compete with German behemoths Bayern Munich, as the Bundesliga champions have an exclusive buyback clause with the Serie A side worth roughly €40 million to £34 million.

While the Gunners will have to pay more than their German counterparts, it may not be much more, as Italian publication Corriere dello Sport reports that they are willing to spend approximately £40 million for the 22-year-old.
