‘Odegaard would feed him’: Arsenal are being advised to consider signing a “really clever” £120m forward instead of Ivan Toney…
Arsenal is being suggested to secure the services of a highly intelligent £120m forward instead of Ivan Toney, with the belief that Odegaard would provide excellent support to this player.
Arsenal is expected to secure the signing of a striker or forward player in the upcoming month, and a pundit has proposed an alternative option to Ivan Toney.
The Gunners have been linked with Toney for several transfer windows, although he has currently stayed with Brentford.
Nevertheless, as the summer transfer window approaches, Toney’s future will undoubtedly be a topic of discussion, with Arsenal likely to be involved.
Despite Toney possessing numerous strengths, it is worth considering that there are other potential options available.
According to BBC Sport pundit Nigel Reo-Coker, Arsenal should prioritize signing Newcastle’s Alexander Isak instead of Ivan Toney.
During a recent appearance on BBC Radio Five Live, Reo-Coker expressed his admiration for Ivan Toney but emphasized that Isak is the ideal choice for Arsenal.
Reo-Coker explained, “Isak’s playing style aligns better with Arsenal’s professional approach and Mikel Arteta’s desired tactics. He would be a great match for the team, especially with Odegaard providing excellent support.”
While Reo-Coker appreciates Ivan Toney’s unique qualities, such as his individual flair and street football skills reminiscent of his own upbringing, he believes Isak’s suitability for Arteta’s style and system outweighs those attributes.
In summary, Reo-Coker’s recommendation for Arsenal is to focus their efforts on securing Alexander Isak as their primary target.
It is proving to be a challenging task to bring Isak to Arsenal. Despite the excitement surrounding the potential addition of Isak to the team, there are significant obstacles in finalizing the transfer.
According to an exclusive report by TBR, Newcastle is preparing to offer Isak a contract that would make him the highest-paid player in the club’s history. Isak, who has scored over 20 goals this season, has caught the attention of the Magpies’ board who are eager to secure his services for the long term.
Moreover, there have been sightings of Isak engaging in discussions with Newcastle chairman Yasir Al Rumayyan. This indicates that Newcastle is confident in their ability to retain Isak at the club.
Newcastle is reportedly demanding a fee of around £120m for Isak if he is to leave. Given the praise from Alan Shearer for his intelligent style of play, it is understandable why the Magpies are holding out for such a substantial sum.
Despite Arsenal’s keen interest in Isak, it appears that the road to securing this deal may be a lengthy and challenging one.
