Arsenal are once again set to fall short in their bid to win their first Premier League title since 2004 and many believe their failure to get over the line is down to not having a clinical striker. The season-ending injuries to Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz have intensified calls to recruit a new number nine and maybe the 6ft 3in Ekitike is the man to solve those problems.
Arsenal have repeatedly been linked with Sporting CP's Viktor Gyokeres and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko but now Ekitike has come into the picture. The ex-Reims man left Paris Saint-Germain for Frankfurt last summer and since then he has scored 18 goals in 35 matches.
While Arsenal plough ahead with their summer transfer window plans, Arteta's side host PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League on Wednesday and lead 7-1 from the first leg of their last 16 tie.
