In a surprising turn of events, Arsenal is making a move for Bologna striker Josh Zirkzee. The Dutchman, who is expected to depart from Bologna this summer, has caught the attention of Inter Milan. However, according to reports from Tuttosport, Arsenal has now entered the picture.
In their pursuit of Zirkzee, Arsenal is prepared to offer him an enticing £115,000-a-week contract to entice him to make the move to London. If the deal goes through, it would see Zirkzee committed to Arsenal until 2029.
Bologna, on the other hand, has set their asking price for Zirkzee at around £50-55m. It remains to be seen if Arsenal will meet this valuation or negotiate a lower fee.
This potential transfer has generated significant interest among football fans and pundits alike. Zirkzee’s arrival at Arsenal would undoubtedly bolster their attacking options and add depth to their squad.
As the negotiations progress, it will be interesting to see if Arsenal can secure the services of this promising young striker. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
