Arsenal is poised to encounter obstacles in their pursuit of Bayern Munich striker Mathys Tel, as FootballTransfers reports that Nico Williams continues to be Mikel Arteta’s primary target for acquisition.

 

 

The Gunners have been actively pursuing a striker throughout the duration of the transfer window. RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko has proven unattainable this month, while a proposal for Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins was rejected.

 

 

 

Vincent Kompany’s organisation seeks either a permanent transfer or a financing arrangement that includes a purchase obligation. Arsenal is not amenable to providing either of these options. Instead, they sought to secure a purchase option for the 19-year-old Frenchman.

 

 

 

Arsenal is expected to exert considerable effort until the transfer deadline in their pursuit of a striker to provide assistance to Kai Havertz, particularly in light of Gabriel Jesus’s prolonged absence due to a significant injury that will keep him sidelined for the remainder of the season. Noteworthy potential targets include a late bid for Ollie Watkins and Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic.

 

 

 

Additionally, the Gunners are strategically preparing for the upcoming summer transfer window.Arsenal is prepared to extend a substantial offer for Nico Williams. Nico Williams is at the forefront of Arteta’s priority list for the attacking midfield position as the season draws to a close.

 

 

 

FootballTransfers has exclusively disclosed that Arsenal made an attempt to acquire the Spain international during the January transfer window. Despite demonstrating a readiness to meet the player’s release clause, the club was ultimately unable to finalise the transaction.

 

 

This matter will be reconsidered during the summer. FootballTransfers has ascertained that the Gunners are prepared to offer an amount exceeding Nico Williams’ release clause of €58 million in order to finalise the transaction.

 

 

 

By allocating a greater financial investment towards the player, they can secure more advantageous payment terms, which may prove beneficial in subsequent seasons in relation to the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR). Nico Williams is prepared to accept the offer from Arsenal during the summer transfer window.

 

 

 

The involvement of his fellow Spanish internationals, David Raya, Mikel Merino, and Martin Zubimendi, who are expected to join Arsenal at the conclusion of the season, is believed to be a significant factor in his decision-making process.
