Arsenal has no strikers left due to a series of injuries. Will they regret not recruiting Lee Kang-in?

Arsenal is suffering from a series of injury disasters. Following Gabriel Jesus' season-ending injury, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli are also suffering from injuries. There is also the possibility that Kai Havertz will be out for the season.

However, the resources that can replace him are players with much lower value, which is becoming a hot topic.

The British public broadcaster BBC reported, "Arsenal is closely assessing the condition of Havertz, who suffered an injury during the Dubai training camp. The thigh muscle tear could end the season early."

The global sports media outlet 'The Athletic' reported, "Havertz is unlikely to play in the remaining season. Whether he will undergo surgery has not been decided yet, but he will focus on recovery with the goal of opening next season." It confirmed Havertz's season-ending.

Arsenal did not recruit a striker during the winter transfer market. There have been many opinions that the recruitment of a front-line striker was urgent, but this time, no recruitment took place. Of course, it is true that the transfer fee of Victor Yokeres, who was considered a recruitment target, was reported to be over 100 billion won, and Alexander Isak was not willing to be given up by Newcastle United, so there was no sale in the first place. Lee Kang-in, who was rumored to be transferring to Arsenal, was also not recruited. 'The Athletic' reported early last month that Arsenal was interested in recruiting Lee Kang-in. 'The Athletic' is a very reliable media outlet for Premier League news. Domestic soccer fans expected Lee Kang-in to enter the Premier League, but it never happened. This is because it was only a simple interest, and above all, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) had no intention of selling him.
