Two poor points. This separated Arsenal and Martin Ødegaard from the Premier League title. In the summer, three reinforcements were supposed to close this small gap to City, but Arsenal only succeeded with two. This has come at a cost, now the London club are taking the drastic step of considering triggering a massive buyout clause in the winter transfer window.
The big signings take place in the summer transfer window where the clubs have “fresh budgets”. Arsenal brought in Riccardo Calafiori and Mikel Merino, but failed to bring in the much-needed goal guarantor up top.

Nine points behind Liverpool, reports Daily Mail Arsenal are willing to pay a buyout clause of a massive £85 million to secure a player who delivers in the Premier League. According to the English media, Arteta and Arsenal have flashed out Mohamed Kudus. The Ghanaian player had an excellent debut season at Weste Ham after his move from Ajax in the summer of 2023, where he hammered in 18 goals in all competitions. This season, West Ham have had a slow start and Kudus has “only” 2 PL goals in 8 games.
According to the English media, the 24-year-old is the player who will secure the extra goals Arsenal have lacked in several close games. He is not the striker the supporters have been looking for, but plays just as naturally on both flanks as an attacking midfielder.

Of course, West Ham have no desire to lose one of their best attacking players, but if Arsenal choose to press the button in January and Kudus gives the thumbs up, then there is not much the club can do.
