Arsenal’s Declan Rice reacts with five words to Ivan Toney’s Al-Ahli announcement on Instagram

Arsenal made three new additions in the summer transfer window.

Raheem Sterling completed a deadline-day switchཧ to the Emirates, joining Mikel Merino an♉d Riccardo Ca꧑lafiori through the door.

Many felt Arsenal needed to invest in a specialist striker but Mikel Ar♏teta opted to place his trust in Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus.

With that said, Ivan Toney, who was heavily linked𝐆 𒐪to Arsenal over the last few months, completed a late transfer to Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli.

And now, Declan Rice has reacted.

Declan Rice sends five-word message to Ivan Toney

Arsenal targetted Ivan Toney during the summer transfer window but ultimately, he made th𓂃e £4❀0m switch to Al-Ahli on deadline day.

Toney ꧑took to Instagram to announce his transfer and Rice, who formed a great relationship with the former Brentford man at Euro 2024, wished him well in th♏e comments section.

Arsenal should target a striker in January

After missing out on Toney, Arsenal should target a striker in the January transfer window as it’s perhaps the 𝕴weakest area of their squad at the mome☂nt.

If they are to close the gap on re💃igning champions Manchester City this term, they need a specialist number nine who’s capable of firing home 20 goals in the Premier League.

Havertz and Jesus likely won’t reach that tally, so perhap🔴s Edu Gaspar should lodge a bid for Sporting stri🍎ker Viktor Gyokeres.

The former Coventry City man has an £86m release clause but could꧟ likely be negotiated down to around £60m.

Though, the🍨re’🦩s always a premium for mid-season deals.
