Someone who has been constantly linked with a new club in the last few months has been Lyon striker Moussa Dembélé, who has been with the club since a big money switch from Celtic in 2018. He continues to have a strong goalscoring record, having netted 25 times in 51 games for Lyon in Ligue 1, after also enjoying an awful lot of success in Scotland, where he was named Player of the Year in his first season at the club in 2016/17.

If they choose to move for the 23-year-old, it is likely that the Gunners will have to fight off competition from Chelsea, as Frank Lampard is keen to bring in back-up for Tammy Abraham, and sees Dembélé as similar to former team-mate Didier Drogba. He has come a long way since his £20 million move to Lyon, so is likely cost more money this time around, but he could prove of excellent value.
