# Arsenal: Club keen on signing Emmanuel Dennis

**Arsenal are trying to build a better squad so that they can battle [higher](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table/2019) up the division next season, and this has seen them add a striker to their list of transfer targets.**

According to [Caught Offside](https://www.caughtoffside.com/2020/08/22/exclusive-arsenal-among-host-of-european-clubs-battling-for-highly-rated-striker-valued-at-36m/), Arsenal are among a host of clubs across Europe who are keen on [22 year-old](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/emmanuel-dennis/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/448854/verein/2282) forward Emmanuel Dennis.

The Gunners, as well as Bayer Leverkusen, RB Leipzig, Inter Milan and fellow Premier League sides Everton and Leeds are all monitoring the player.

The 22 year-old currently [plays](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/emmanuel-dennis/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/448854/verein/2282) his football for Club Brugge, who are the [reigning Belgian champions](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-brugge/platzierungen/verein/2282). This shows that Dennis is playing at a good level, and he has 28 goals and 10 assists in 104 appearances for the club, per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/emmanuel-dennis/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/448854/verein/2282), which includes games in the Champions League.

With an average of more than one goal contribution per three matches, Dennis is a potent presence in the attacking area of the pitch and this was proven in his [masterclass](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49900947) against European giants Real Madrid back in October 2019 in the Champions League in which he scored a brace at the Santiago Bernabeu to make sure Brugge returned back to Belgium with a point.

With his age, he is definitely showing potential that he can be a great striker, and a move to a club like Arsenal in the Premier League could be an ideal transfer for both Dennis and the Gunners. Valued at just [£14.4m](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/emmanuel-dennis/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/448854/verein/2282), he is unlikely to cost too much either.
