Lucas Vazquez would be a good fit for the Gunners

The North London giants are working with a reduced transfer budget this summer after failing to secure a return to Champions League football in Emery’s debut season.

Arsenal conceded over 50 goals in the Premier League alone in the 2018/19 campaign, so Emery’s emphasis will be on bringing in defensive reinforcements. However, that shouldn’t close the club’s door on signing forwards this summer.

While Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang formed a lethal partnership up front, none of the other attacking players contributed with assists and goals consistently this past term.

Alex Iwobi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan had unconvincing campaigns, while Mesut Ozil’s disastrous 2018/19 means Emery is planning to offload him this summer.

The Gunners clearly need more quality out wide if they are to improve under Emery and Lucas Vazquez would be a fine fit at the Emirates. He possesses blistering pace and incredible dribbling skills, while his tricks and flicks to get away from the defenders will allow him an easy route towards goal.

The Spanish international has the ability to cause all sorts of problems to opposition defenders with his off the ball movement.
