Arsenal targets Brentford attacker Kevin Schade for January transfer window
Arsenal is reportedly considering a move for Brentford attacker Kevin Schade during the upcoming January transfer window. Manager Mikel Arteta is seeking additional depth in the attacking third following the late summer departures of Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus.
Schade, 24, has demonstrated strong form this season, scoring three goals in his first five Premier League appearances. His ability to play on either flank or through the middle offers the positional flexibility desired by Arteta. The interest follows Arsenal's recent struggles to break through defensive presses, most notably highlighted in a 3-0 defeat to Brighton.
