Extreme quality
Arsenal have had many goal contributions from the attacking department. Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard have shared duties from the left wing position and the latter has become a regular starter during the latter part of the campaign with some crucial goals.
Bukayo Saka He has also been a revelation from the right side of the Gunners' attack, but the manager Mikel Arteta You may want someone who can provide you with the right stuff and who can compete with you. The Gunners boss has tested players like Gabriel JesusReiss Nelson and Fabio Vieira in the role without much success.
It is a position where they need more quality and Simons would be a top acquisition with his enormous potential and versatility. Simons can operate anywhere in the attack. He has attracted attention for his pace, his dribbling ability and his ability to pick out key passes when on the counter-attack.
The big question remains whether he would consider moving to the Emirates Stadium knowing that he will not be a guaranteed starter. Instead of playing second fiddle to Saka, he might prefer to team up with another Champions League team where he has guaranteed playing time to develop.
