Ian Wright urges Arsenal to sign a new striker
Wright, speaking on𒅌 The Overlap, claimed that there🦄’s currently a feeling of “desperation” at Arsenal with regards to the title race.
With Manchester City all-but out of contention, it would have 🅠been the perfect opportunity for Arsenal to take advantage, but that’s not the case.
And Wright believes that signing a new striker❀ would go a long way to allaying those feelings of anxie♍ty around the club.
“The𒁏re’s a desperation, and I don’t know if it’s just me, but there seems to be a desperation,” said Wright.
“Simply because, looking at last season and h🦋ow close they got, starting this season knowing that 🎃you just have to – we have to stay with them, you know what I mean.
“You know, we started a season and we lost some games, some injuries, some decisi💮ons go against you, which happens to everybody.
“But when Manchester City start slipping up and then the fans believe that, ‘oh, if they slip up, we’re going to catch them this year’, and then we’re🔴 not performing…
“Then you can feel the energy in the place the disappointment, it’s l🐼ike feast or famine, you know, they completely go the other way.
“Again, it’s very easy to sꦓay because you say ‘yeah but if you take some of those chances’.
“But if Arsenal take those chances, the whole landscape of what our people are ﷽speaking about is totally different but they haven’t – for me, we have to get the striker.”
Arsenal’s stance towards new striker signing and the players linked with Gunners move
Former Arsenal assistant manager Steve Round recently claimed that Mikel Arteta will be fully aware he ne✅eds a new striker.

Benjamin Sesko is an Arsenal target as well, while Evan Ferguson is on the Gunners’ radar.
