Arsenal will have to battle Liverpool for Swansea striker, Wilfried Bony. The 25 year old who made a great impression since moving to the Premier League is rumored to want to leave his current team in order to join a stronger side such as Arsenal or Liverpool in order to play in the Champions League. With three years left of contract, he is not going to be cheap. According to talkSPORT Swansea City are set to start negotiations at £25million which might be a bit much for Wenger’s taste. On the other hand the Frenchman might be interested to spend big and give in to negotiations in order to avoid last year’s situation when all transfers failed if you rule out Ozil.

The Ivorian who seems a very efficient player might make a great addition to Wenger’s side who could sure use a strong striker such as Bony. He is also very efficient managing to score once every two games since he started his senior career. He is well-acquainted to Premier League football and he is also young enough to represent a great future investment.

Wenger will probably wait and see if Benzema becomes available in what will be a very complicated deal. In order for the Frenchman to reach Emirates Stadium, Liverpool will have to find a proper replacement for Suarez who should sign a deal with Real. If things don’t go the right way, Bony might be moved to the top of the transfer list.
