Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are looking to bolster their attacking ranks, recognizing the need for a reliable goal-getter in North London.
While the Gunners boast talents like Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz, and Spurs rely on Richarlison and Son Heung-min, none can be deemed as consistent goal machines.
Under Ange Postecoglou's astute tactics and shrewd signings, Tottenham have coped well without Harry Kane. However, Mikel Arteta witnessed his side falter in front of goal against Liverpool in a recent FA Cup fixture, highlighting the urgent need for clinical finishing.
RB Leipzig's Lois Openda has emerged as a prime target for both clubs, with Fichajes suggesting a hefty price tag of £70m+. While such a sum may strain finances, clubs have time until the summer window to negotiate and convince the player to join their ranks.
The pursuit of the 23-year-old underscores the pressing need for striking reinforcements at North London teams, as they seek to address their goalscoring concerns and propel themselves to greater success in the Premier League.
