EPL: Piers Morgan hands Arsenal name of player to sign, sell in January

British broadcaster and Ardent Arsenal fan, Piers Morgan, has urged the Gunners to sign Brentford striker Ivan Toney during the January transfer window.

Morgan believes that this will help Arsenal challenge Manchester City for the Premier League title this season.

He also urged Mikel Arteta’s side to sell Kai Havertz and use the money to bring Toney to Emirates.

“I think that in January we have to go and get Ivan Toney or someone like him because we need a proper striker,” Piers Morgan said during a conversation with talkSPORT.

“Every Arsenal fan knows this and I think we have been kidding ourselves for too long that we can exist without one and the truth is that we can’t.”

When asked how Arsenal could get the funds to sign Toney, Morgan added, “We could sell Kai Havertz and get our £70 million back.

“People ask me what I would have done and what I’d have done is gone to Napoli and given £150 million for Osimhen and everyone goes ‘that’s nuts’, but we just spent nearly half of that on Havertz who looks like he is not anywhere near the standard we need to win the league.”
