Vice-President Hails Impressive £51 Million Arsenal target As ‘Great Champion’

Inter vice-president, Javier Zanetti, has indicated that the Serie A champions will rival Arsenal for Bologna striker Joshua Zirkzee this summer.

ARSENAL are sitting top of the Premier League and are closing in on their first title since 2024, if they are able to win all their remaining games and Man City drop some vital points between now and the end of the season.

However – there has already been alot of speculation in the media about who Mikel Arteta will be able to get in the transfer window as the board are willing to give him £200 million to help improve the squad.

A striker is somehing that will be top of the list for Mikel Arteta, as despite all the quality that the club have – they do not have a man that is able to score 20-30 goals a season.

And that has led to speculation in the media that Arsenal and Inter Milan are both interested in signing the impressing Zirkzee in the summer, as the striker has 11 goals this season and is on the verge of helping Bologna get Champions League football.

When asked about a potential move for Zirkzee, Zanetti told Radio TV Serie A: ‘Zirkzee is a great champion.

‘We are talking about a young, talented, intelligent, physically very strong player.

‘Someone like that would be useful to any great team aiming for important goals.

‘Let’s see… if the opportunity arises we can think about it.

‘With Zirkzee, Lautaro [Martinez] and [Marcus] Thuram we would have a young and strong attack. They would give us peace of mind.’

The way that ARSENAL play-  the future that the club has and the fact they will be winning more trophies over the next few seasons – if they manage to get a striker that can bang in the goals – they will be even better next season.

We are just not sure that Zirkzee is the answer for the club.
