Arsenal could make surprise striker signing - David Ornstein

Arsenal could make a surprise signing for the centre-forward department before the transfer window closes in early February.

The Gunners are short up front at the moment after a serious knee injury for Gabriel Jesus. He could be sidelined for the rest of the year.

Kai Havertz has played as the main striker for the past few games, but the German has looked jaded with the heavy workload on him.

Arsenal desperately need to freshen up their strikeforce and Ornstein admits that they could do something before the window closes.

He has no idea over potential targets, but acknowledged that there is no chance that Alexander Isak will join the Gunners this winter.

Newcastle United are pushing for Champions League football and have no plans of strengthening their top-four rivals mid-season.

RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko is also expected to stay put. He could, however, move from the Bundesliga outfit in the summer.
