Indeed, Arsenal have been linked with a new centre-forward for more than 18 months at this point.
Ivan Toney was linked to Arsenal for a long time, and, since then, more and more links have emerged.
Speaking on Inside Gooners, Darren Bent has been discussing Arsenal’s striking dilemma, and he says that Isak is the one striker Arsenal should be going all out to sign.

Arsenal should be going all out for Alexander Isak
Bent shared his verdict on which striker Arsenal should sign
Bent says that Isak is the one player he’d really like to see at the Emirates, and he says a deal could be done if Newcastle don’t qualify for Europe.
“Yeah, I’d go with that. Isak, for me, is the one. And it might not, between the two clubs, it might not be the case because Newcastle, of course, ain’t going to want to sell him,” Bent said.
“But it might come down to the player, because if Newcastle was to finish ninth or tenth this season, Arsenal in the Champions League again next year, he might have a decision to make because it’s quite short careers. And yes, he’s had a great time at Newcastle, but a player of his quality, international, should be playing in the Champions League every season. He’s got the ability, he’s got the quality.”
Alexander Isak stats this season
Arsenal do need to upgrade their number nine position, but, looking at the stats this season, it’s hard to honestly say that Isak would be a massive upgrade.
Indeed, the striker hasn’t been all that brilliant this term.
