Arsenal’s failure to acquire a new forward this summer would constitute an enormous surprise. Following the injuries of Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli, and Kai Havertz, Mikel Arteta is currently limited to senior attacking
options, including Raheem Sterling and Leandro Trossard, as well as teenage sensation Ethan Nwaneri. Arsenal has only recruited six forwards since the Spaniard succeeded Unai Emery in December 2019, and they are currently being penalised for their inadequate attacking depth.
The man from Wandsworth has expressed his dissatisfaction with the comments made by his boss, Gian Piero Gasperini, who referred to him as “one of the worst penalty takers” he has ever seen in the aftermath of the game, after he missed a crucial penalty as Atalanta were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League by Club Brugge on Tuesday.
Nevertheless, Ademola Lookman, a player who is purportedly interested in joining Arsenal this summer, has recently disclosed that he feels “deeply” disrespected by his current club, Atalanta. Ademola Lookman is dissatisfied with Atalanta in light of his affiliation with Arsenal.
In December, a report from Give Me Sport asserted that Arsenal is interested in signing Lookman, and the Nigerian international is amenable to departing Bergamo for N5.Lookman expressed his regret on X (formerly known as Twitter):
“It is disheartening to be compelled to compose this statement on a day like this, particularly in light of the accomplishments we have made as a team and as a city.” “I have been singled out in a manner that is not only hurtful but also deeply disrespectful, particularly in light of the immense hard work and dedication I have consistently demonstrated to assist in the success of this club and the incredible fans of Bergamo.”
In reality, I have encountered numerous challenging circumstances during my tenure here, the majority of which I have refrained from discussing due to my conviction that the team must always be prioritised and safeguarded. This only serves to exacerbate the severity of the events that transpired last night.
“We, as a team, are also in pain as a result of last night’s outcome, in addition to our extraordinary fans.” I was instructed by the designated penalty taker to take the penalty during the match, and I immediately assumed responsibility to support the team. Life is about overcoming obstacles and transforming suffering into strength, a practice that I will persist in.
