Mikel Arteta will be desperate to strengthen his Arsenal squad in the summer transfer window after a dry January

Gabriel Agbonlahor has predicted that Arsenal will join two other Premier League clubs in a transfer race to sign Liam Delap from Ipswich Town. Delap only joined Ipswich in July from Manchester City in a deal worth £20m but already looks destined for a move at the end of the season.

Arsenal has long been in pursuit of a striker who can blend creativity, finishing, and physical presence. With inconsistent goal-scoring and a lack of cutting-edge flair, the Gunners’ attack has often fallen short of expectations.
