5 realistic January striker signings for Arsenal

Alexsandr Kokorin

Aleksandr Kokorin

Reports are continuing to link the 6ft Dynamo Moscow striker with a move to the Emirates, and with his contract running down, a bid of £7m should be enough to bring him to the club in January.

A relatively unknown prospect to most Gunners fans, Kokorin is the most likely addition to the squad in January after we tracked over the summer and reportedly failed in a loan attempt.

He’s never managed more than ten goals a season in Russia, but as a big powerful number 9 in the mould of Giroud, he could well be a good bit of business for us as a backup player who wouldn’t demand first team football straight away.
