Arsenal are reportedly weighing up a surprise move for AS Roma forward Andrea Belotti as Mikel Arteta looks to strengthen his attacking options this summer.
The Gunners have been linked with several strikers in recent weeks, and Belotti has emerged as a potential target. The Italian international, who joined Roma on a free transfer last summer, could be available for a cut-price deal as the Serie A side looks to balance their books.
Why Belotti Could Be a Smart Signing
Belotti, 29, brings a wealth of experience and a proven goal-scoring record. Known for his physicality and work rate, the striker could offer Arsenal a different dimension up front. While he hasn’t been a regular starter at Roma, his ability to hold up play and link with teammates makes him an intriguing option.
Arteta’s Striker Search Continues
Arsenal have been heavily linked with high-profile names like Ivan Toney and Victor Osimhen, but financial constraints may force them to explore more affordable alternatives. Belotti’s potential availability fits this profile, offering a low-risk, high-reward opportunity.
With Eddie Nketiah’s future uncertain and Gabriel Jesus occasionally struggling for consistency, adding another proven striker could be crucial for Arsenal’s title ambitions next season.
What’s Next?
Roma’s willingness to negotiate will be key, but if Arsenal can secure Belotti for a reasonable fee, it could prove to be a shrewd piece of business. Fans will be watching closely as the transfer window heats up.
