Former Arsenal striker, Ian Wright, has told the club that Wilfried Zaha would be a “magnificent” signing but urged them to keep Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette.
The Gunners are keen to sign Zaha from Crystal Palace and have seen an opening £40million offer rejected this week.
Arsenal are preparing a second bid for Zaha, who is keen to join the club he supported as a child.
Wright told the South China Morning Post: “We’re trying to get Wilfried Zaha, which would be magnificent.
“You want competition for places. Defensively, I think everyone can agree, we need some strength in there.
“You can always strengthen in the midfield. Aaron Ramsey’s gone. We need that midfielder who is going to join the front guys and try to contribute with goals.
“Goals is a premium so you always want to be linked with a striker that might be able to come and help.”
