Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has reportedly set his sights on a new striker and is prepared to do whatever it takes to bring him to the Emirates Stadium, even if it means breaking the club’s transfer record.
According to sources, Kroenke is so determined to land the player that he has jokingly suggested he would rather sell the club than miss out on his signing.
“If his release clause is £200 million, we’ll still sign him. I’d rather sell the club than miss out on this deal,” Kroenke allegedly said in a bold statement that has sent shockwaves through the football world.
The identity of the striker in question has not been officially revealed, but speculation is running wild among fans and pundits. Arsenal have been linked with several top forwards in recent months as Mikel Arteta looks to strengthen his squad ahead of the new season. With the club aiming to challenge for the Premier League title and compete at the highest level in Europe, a world-class striker could be the missing piece of the puzzle.
While Kroenke’s statement has excited some Arsenal supporters, not everyone is convinced. Many fans have different opinions on the potential signing, with some questioning whether the striker in question is truly the best fit for the club. Some believe Arsenal should focus on a different target, while others are concerned about the financial implications of such a massive deal.
This development comes amid growing pressure on Arsenal’s ownership to invest heavily in the squad.
The Gunners have shown significant progress under Arteta, but their lack of a clinical striker has been a major talking point. If Kroenke follows through on his words, Arsenal could soon make one of the most expensive signings in football history.
For now, fans will have to wait for official confirmation of the player’s identity and whether Arsenal will truly go all-in to secure his signature. However, one thing is clear: Arsenal’s ambitions are bigger than ever, and the club is ready to make a serious statement in the transfer market
