Arsenal are reportedly yet to decide between making a move for Viktor Gyokeres or another striker during the summer transfer window.
The Gunners are set to finish second in the Premier League for a third straight campaign as they travel to Southampton this weekend on the final day of the term.
Mikel Arteta's men were unable to run Liverpool close in the title race, with Arne Slot picking up an English crown during his first campaign on these shores.
It has been widely stated that Arsenal have struggled without the presence of a world-class number nine at the top of their attack this term.
Gyokeres certainly fits that bill, with the sensational Swede netting 39 goals and providing seven assists across 33 Primeira Liga appearances for Sporting Lisbon.

Arsenal deciding between Gyokeres or alternative
According to transfer specialist David Ornstein, Arsenal are making the addition of a new striker a top priority during the summer transfer window.
The report claims that the Gunners are considering an ambitious swoop for Gyokeres, who is also admired by Ruben Amorim's Manchester United.
It is also understood that the North London side are targeting a move for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, with the Slovenian an alternative to the aforementioned Swede.
It is currently unclear whether Arsenal are favouring a deal for Gyokeres or Sesko, with that decision-making process likely to be complicated.
Gyokeres's uncle has recently provided a blow to suitors' hopes of landing the attacker, stating that his nephew is very happy in Lisbon.

Second crack at England
During a lacklustre loan spell at Swansea City in the second tier of English football in 2020-21, Gyokeres managed just a single goal across 11 Championship appearances.
The Swede left the South Wales club in the winter of that campaign, with his departure indifferent to those inside of the Jack Army.
Gyokeres went onto Coventry City, proceeding to set the Championship alight, and the striker is now ready to become an elite player in the Premier League.
