Arsenal are already planning for a marquee addition to the squad during the winter transfer window.
The Gunners have made a brilliant start to the current season and have suffered just one loss in eight matches thus far.
The club were on a seven-match winning streak before a 3-0 humbling at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion on the road.
The defeat on the South Coast was a big reality check for the Gunners and why they require more quality in the final third.
The Premier League champions recruited Christos Tzolis in the summer, but also weakened themselves by selling Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli.
The club failed to land a marquee forward, and they are expected to address the issue when the transfer window reopens this winter.
Bournemouth's Junior Kroupi is one of the players Arsenal admire. The club are likely to monitor his recovery from a foot injury.
Arsenal are currently three points behind Manchester City for the top spot in the Premier League after the loss to the Seagulls.
