Arsenal star striker Olivier Giroud has been in decent form this season for the Gunners. However, the North Londoners need better quality striker to challenge for the league title next season.
One such name heavily linked with a move to Emirates Stadium is Porto striker and Colombian international Jackson Martinez.
According to Daily Star, Arsenal have agreed terms to sign the highly rated striker in the summer transfer window.
As per the provided link, Martinez has a release clause of 35 million Euros.
The 28 year old star striker has been in brilliant goal scoring form yet again for the Portuguese side as he has netted no fewer than 32 goals and also provided 7 assists in 42 games for Porto.
Arsenal already have World Class playmakers in the form of Alexis, Cazorla and Ozil etc. With the addition of a top class striker like Martinez, the Gunners can seriously push for the title next season.
Here is how Arsenal will line up with Jackson Martinez.

English football is different from any other leagues, even if he is to come to the Premier League, he will find it difficult to adjust. Also for the kind of money they are asking, at his age, Wenger will not be interested in pumping out a huge amount for some one who is 28 years now, they have to take all that in consideration.
Wemger should please pump the money and buy Martinez. Arsenal need him seriously to compete for major trophies.
I think that Benzema, Morata or Lorente are much better options than Martinez for that kind of money. And even a very good option would be Benteke who is fast and strong and can score goals as well and who already knows the English game and may come at a lesser price than the other two
One thousand fans with one thousand opinions . Just some weeks back fans clamor for world class player and now someone is rating Benteke ahead of Martinez. No wonder these coaches don’t respond to people’s idea.
targeting every time without buying the solution is wrong. wenger knows the problem at arsenal and he know the solution but don’t just want to do it that’s all. mourhno had a problem with goal scoring striker and he solve with diego costa. he can’t do the same?
How can u compare martinez with benteke? Jesus u guys are funny, who is benteke wenger please sign martinez and benzima for me and let go of giroud then we can compete for premier league next season.
If you ever watched Martinez play, you will see that he has what Arsenal really needs: strength, the zeal and the goal sense. Martinez hardly wastes scoring chances….Anyway, the Prof knows better but we should rather go for what we really need NOT FAMOUS SPENT FORCES.
wenger is too słów When it comes to transfer business
martinez is the type we have been waitin for
wenger Hurry and get this deal done Asap
Jackson is one of the best strikers we have in the world but at his age of 28, l don’t think wenger will cough such an amount for him but l knw if he comes to arsenal with the presence of our prolific midfielders and wingers, then arsenal will be a club to beat next season.
yes… Martinez he’s the one who arsenal need. Martinez he’s only one who solve arsenal problem, i know he can. and hope wenger you gonna buy him for us, cus all arsenal fans need to see him in Arsenal. i hope u buy him wenger
At 28 years of age, Martinez has 3 to 4 years of good footballing life left barring injuries. Who says those years are not worth 25m pounds if they can help get Arsenal a PL title, a CL semi final or CL final ticket? I say sign him. Those types of players have a way of paying for themselves handsomely.
We should not be discourage with age group, league difference for a quality. We need quality jackson i’m sure he wil settle to epl immediately cos he is a stronger, powerful and finsher and that is wht we want. Wenger pls go go go martnez!!!
how many years, months, weeks or days do arsenal management needs to sign a single playes or is it that the club dont have enough money to buy quality players? wenger forget about guriod, he will not win EPL with arsenal. get a partner for him and get this deal done!!
Wenger few weeks ago when he was commentin abt walcot said smething age. He said at 26 to 32yrs this is where u b expecting to see a striker at his best so 28yrs is nothing. We can buy him for 25 million and win us 4 epl titles ,4FA and a first uefa champions . Wld that b bad. Wenger buy hin for us. Benteke nt top top striker
Who ever striker comes at Arsenal he is welcome as the Boss knows exactly what his needs most to form a strong ,challenging and winning squad. But I agree He needs to hurry , remember the Higuain saga last year ! All the talk and rumours for weeks and months and look where he ended up . Surely not at the Emeritas but at Stadio San Paolo , Napoli. Therefore Action is needed as other Managers are watching every move you make Mr. Wanger. Do not forget the youngsters such as Gnabry or even the other sold or on loan as otherwise why do clubs have their nurseries etc etc…….. Give them a change a real good chance after all these young players are the product of the Club
