Piers Morgan Urges Arsenal to Sign Isak in January Transfer Window

Piers Morgan, the outspoken British broadcaster and lifelong Arsenal fan, has called on the club to make a bold move in the January transfer window by signing Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak.
Morgan urged Arsenal to “break the bank” for the Swedish forward, who he believes is currently the best striker in Europe.
“Aubameyang was a world-class striker with an incredible record at Arsenal,” Morgan said. “Yes, Arsenal moved on from him, but who did they bring in to replace him?”
Morgan, who has frequently called for the club to sign a top-tier striker, went on to say, “It’s time to stop being calm and polite about this – we need a proper striker, and we need one now! To win major trophies, Arsenal must be ruthless and go after the best players available.”
