Arsenal need more talent up front, and manager Arsene Wenger should consider signing the following five strikers during the remainder of the summer transfer window.

Arsenal’s attack won’t be a title-winning one without better finishers than Olivier Giroud and Theo Walcott. Wenger must add more talent at the position and give up trying to make Alexis Sanchez a center forward.

Sanchez belongs on the flanks; so does Walcott. Giroud is strong in the air and a terrific link player, but lacks pace and isn’t the most reliable in front of goal.

Wenger’s attempts to solve the problem have been met with frustration this summer. He’s been rebuffed by Leicester’s Jamie Vardy and couldn’t get a deal over the line for Lyon’s Alexandre Lacazette.

Fortunately, there are still plenty of quality strikers left for Arsenal to sign. The Gunners may even be inching closer to a deal for one of La Liga’s most prolific marksmen.

Read on to find out who are the five best strikers Arsenal should sign.
