During their clash against Liverpool, Arsenal laid bare their recent struggles in front of goal. This has left fans and pundits questioning the team’s ability to convert chances.
Arsenal not only damaged their title hopes but also crashed out of a competition that holds historical ties to them
As the clamor for reinforcements grows, one name has been consistently linked with the North London club – Ivan Toney.
However, another intriguing prospect has emerged in the form of Bayer Leverkusen’s 23-year-old striker, Victor Boniface.
Boniface a potential solution for Arsenal?
Boniface, who boasts an impressive record of 16 goals in 23 games this season for Xabi Alonso’s side, has been identified as a potential solution to Arsenal’s finishing woes.
His goal-scoring prowess, with 14 goals this season, outshines the current attacking options at the Emirates.
In a recent interview Boniface spoke about Granit Xhaka’s impact at Leverkusen, revealing his long-standing allegiance to Arsenal.
The Nigerian striker praised Xhaka for bringing experience, maturity, and professionalism to the squad. These surely are the qualities that could benefit a relatively young Arsenal team.
Despite Boniface’s potential to bolster Arsenal’s attack, it appears any move may have to wait until the summer.
However, this could align with Arsenal’s plans, as the club is reportedly prioritizing defensive reinforcements in the current transfer window.
Arsenal now have a 12-day break, providing an opportunity for the team to regroup and strategize for the remaining season.
Mikel Arteta has called for fans to stand behind the team during this period, emphasizing the importance of their support.
While fans yearn for an immediate solution to the team’s striking deficiencies, Arsenal seems poised to take a measured approach in the transfer market.
The pursuit of a defender in January may take precedence, setting the stage for a potential attacking reinforcement, such as Victor Boniface, in the upcoming summer transfer window.
As the transfer saga unfolds and Arsenal navigates this critical period without fixtures, the coming weeks will undoubtedly provide insights into the club’s strategy and its bid to secure silverware in the current campaign.
