Time runs faster when ambition is in the room. Arsenal’s boardroom hums with summer calculations—big money, bold moves, and the relentless pursuit of firepower.
Negotiations with RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko remain centre stage, yet according to Caught Offside, a new name drifts into the frame: Antonio Nusa.
Just 20, the Norwegian winger carries the marks of potential and the scars of a season fought through a knee injury. Even so, five goals and eight assists in 40 appearances speak to his resilience. He thrives on either flank but finds sharper edges on the left—exactly where Arsenal sense vulnerability.
Gabriel Martinelli’s flashes and Leandro Trossard’s cameos aren’t enough; the Gunners crave consistency and the rare menace that unsettles defenders before the whistle blows.
Nusa brings that in glimpses—a dribbler who doesn’t just beat his man but bends the game’s rhythm. His high pressing fits Mikel Arteta’s gospel of suffocating intensity.
With Chelsea and Newcastle circling, the £38 million valuation may soon feel light.
Still, Arsenal’s hunger is not for potential alone. Nico Williams, Rodrygo—these are the names that draw breath in North London. City and Liverpool set a high bar; Arsenal know marquee signings win titles.
The centre-forward hunt defines the summer: Sesko, or perhaps Viktor Gyokeres, whose representatives have already spoken with the club.
Every window tells a story. This one may speak of calculated patience, or of a moment where the Gunners, staring at a closing gap, decide that tomorrow’s dreams must be bought today.
