The Gunners are not yet done when it comes to signing players in the transfer window as they are now targeting a sixth player.
Arsenal have signed five players so far but none of them belong to the forward line. They would like to change that with the signing of Lucas Vazquez from Real Madrid, according to reports via Team Talk.
The report states that the North London club have submitted a £35.6m offer to sign the attacker. It seems Unai Emery is very keen on bringing Vazquez to the Emirates.
But all this seems a little too good to be true at the moment given the fact that Arsenal have already spent a considerable amount of money.
If they were to make another signing, then they would first have to sell some players in order to raise the funds needed.
Now, Vazquez is a very impressive player who has been able to showcase his abilities at the Bernabeu despite only having limited opportunities. He is not super fast but he is quick enough to cause the defenders a problem and that will be of use to the Gunners.
Arsenal are in need of a winger as that is the one position where they are lacking something at the moment. It is difficult to see Real Madrid letting him go given that Cristiano Ronaldo has left the club this summer.
Only if the Spanish club were to sign someone as a replacement, would they even think of letting Vazquez go. There has been some suggestion that the Gunners have been keeping an eye on him for some time now and were even prepared to offer him a lucrative contract.
So, this story might have some legs after all and we could see the Spaniard end up at the Emirates. Arsenal already do have a strong squad but there is no such thing as having too much quality.
The Gunners will be competing in four competitions and they need as many good players as possible. If Arsenal were to splash the cash on Vazquez, it will go a long way in solving a problem that exists in the club.
