Bring him to the Emirates — Cristiano Ronaldo superfan says Arsenal must sign clinical striker
British TV personality and lifelong Arsenal superfan Piers Morgan has made a passionate plea to his beloved club to be active in the transfer window.
Morgan, who is also a lifelong fan of Portugal legend Cristiano Ronaldo, believes they must sign the best striker in the world in order to compete.
He firmly believes Newcastle's Alexander Isak is the best striker on the market and insists the Gunners must "break the bank" to bring him to the Emirates.
Morgan, Speaking on talkSPORT, said:
"How many times have I been on your show in the last three years since [Pierre-Emerick] Aubameyang got shoved out the door?
"He was a genuinely world-class striker in my opinion and had an amazing scoring record for Arsenal."
"Alright, Arsenal didn't want him. Fine. So who are you going to replace him with?... The reality is, I have very calmly, each time I've come on, politely suggested that we need to sign a proper striker. The days for calm are now over… we need a bloody striker!"
Morgan believes Isak is the perfect solution to Arsenal's striking woes, saying:
"If you want to win big trophies you have got to be ruthless and you've got to sign the best players. Isak, right now, is the best striker in Europe… Arsenal, break the bloody bank!"
Isak has been one of the hottest forwards in the world over the past 3 months and his record of 12 goals in his last 12 games has drawn attention from all across Europe for his services.
