Arsenal looking to raid Atletico for Brazilian forward

The La Liga forward joined Atletico Madrid in the last transfer window.

Gunners are eyeing Matheus Cunha as the Brazilian forward struggles to shine at Atletico Madrid. The La Liga forward joined Spanish giants in the last transfer window. His signing was one of the most exciting new signings in Spain’s top-flight.

Atletico added Griezmann to their squad just before the transfer window closed. Since the arrival of the Frenchman, it becomes hard for Cunha to get the competition for a place in Atletico’s attack.

Fichajes says Gunners are one of the clubs targeting 22-year-old and he could leave Spain for the Premier League club, even on an initial loan deal.

The Brazilian forward is facing competition from Luis Suarez and Joao Felix so his future looks uncertain at the Spanish club. The report claims Arsenal has to sign a striker soon and they have made him their top target.

North London club needs to replace Alexandre Lacazette who is supposed to leave Emirates and Cunha is the latest name to become a new replacement.

Mikel Arteta’s side will face competition from Borussia Dortmund. Cunha played for RB Leipzig and Hertha Berlin so his experience in Bundesliga can give Dortmund a chance.
