CRYSTAL PALACE forward Eberechi Eze has emerged as a key target for Arsenal this transfer window – but the Gunners will not stop at just one addition to their attack.
Mikel Arteta is looking to bolster his squad following three consecutive second-place finishes in the Premier League.

The Gunners are expected to announce the arrivals of Martin Zubimendi and Kepa Arrizabalaga in the coming days, with Christian Norgaard also set to join from Brentford.
But now they have directed attention towards attacking reinforcements.
Benjamin Sesko and Viktor Gyokeres are understood to be two priority targets for the No9 position.
Meanwhile, Real Madrid ace Rodrygo has also been linked.
It emerged last week that Eze was another name being discussed by the Arsenal hierarchy.
The Athletic has reported that he is high on the club’s wishlist.
Arsenal chiefs are yet to make contact with Crystal Palace over a potential deal, but they are giving “serious consideration” to the idea of moving for him.
Eze has a release clause worth £60million plus add-ons in his contract, but Arsenal would look to negotiate for a slightly lower fee.

It has also been revealed that interest in Eze is separate to the club’s pursuit of a winger and a striker.
Fans of the Gunners have been sent into a frenzy as a result, with one person taking to X to write: “We are so back.”
Another said: “Imagine if Berta gives actually delivers an AM along with LW & ST.”
A third commented: “This would be an epic signing for Arsenal.”
While a fourth wrote: “My club is finally acting like the big club it is, now go get Gyokeres, Rodrygo, and Eze.”
Arsenal kick off their Premier League campaign with a trip to Old Trafford on August 17 to face Manchester United.
