However, Arsenal's top transfer target this summer is Mario Mandzukic, and a move to the Emirates Stadium is looking more and more likely with each passing day. Mandzukic has endured a bitter falling out with current club Bayern Munich, being left out of the squad that won the German Cup last weekend and not even watching the game from the stands. Further reports claim he has cleared out his locker at the Allianz Arena as his departure from the reigning European champions looks more and more inevitable. That isn't to say the Croatian had a bad campaign last season - far from it, he scored 18 Bundesliga goals - but his recent spats with manager Pep Guardiola have rubber stamped the end of his Bayern career. Both Chelsea and Arsenal have been heavily linked as next destinations for the striker with both London clubs in obvious need of firepower next season, and the two are set to duke it out this summer. Which striker do you think Arsene Wenger needs to sign from our list? Have we missed out any other potential options? Let us know in the comment section, below.
