Arsenal Set To Make £35m Move For Alexis Sanchez Replacement

Arsenal incoming manager must surely make some changes to the current squad in the summer. After failing to finish among Premier league top-four clubs for the second season in a row, the Gunners are set to get rid of some players while new players would switch to the North London club.

Jack Wilshere, Danny Welbeck, Ramsey and Alex Iwobi have all been tipped to be heading out of the Emirates stadium this summer while Piccini, Anthony Martial, even United’s youngster Marcus Rashford is also linked to the Gunners.

According to German media outlet Bild via the mirror, Emil Forsberg who currently plays for RB Leipzig is drawing Arsenal’s attention due to his performance for the Bundesliga team this season.

The Swedish international first caught Wenger’s eye during last season when he registered an impressive 22 assists and the Frenchman has since been monitoring his progress at the German hoping to sign him during the winter transfer market.

Though the £35m-rated winger has lost his form this season due to injury problems, he will surely be a perfect replacement for Alexis Sanchez who joined Manchester United in the previous window. Forsberg has scored just five goals and also provides four assist so far this season.
