How Arsenal could line-up if Edu completes sensational £143.5m double summer transfer swoop

Arsenal have been linked with a host of top-class forwards recently as Mikel Arteta looks to strengthen his side during the summer transfer window.

The Gunners allowed former captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to join Barcelona back in January, with no replacement signed, whilst fellow frontmen Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette are both into the final four months of their contracts with the club. One name that has constantly been linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium in recent times is Benfica youngster Darwin Nunez.
