Arsenal still need to increase the firepower amongst Mikel Arteta’s options next season despite the recent arrival of Gabriel Jesus. The best way to do this will be to attack the transfer market.
One player that can be signed to enhance the Gunners’ attacking options is Paulo Dybala. The Argentine can reportedly be acquired on a cheap deal as he has a release clause in his contract with AS Roma.
However, a deal for Dybala will not be easy as, according to Sky Sport, Manchester United were in talks with the forward last season. And, with United also needing to add to their attacking line, it could mean that they also register interest ahead of the summer transfer window.

According to Spanish news outlet Sport, Dybala has a release clause of only €12milion (£10.6million) this summer. The World Cup winner joined Roma from Juventus on a free transfer in the summer. Though talks over a new deal already could remove that release clause - or see it rise significantly.
The 28-year-old scored 115 goals in the 293 games for Juventus and played a significant part in the team's Serie A title-winning seasons. He has also been a regular for the Argentina national team making 37 appearances.
He also has Champions League experience under his belt, which is what Arteta's side will need as they strive to get back into the European competitions. The Gunners failed to qualify for the Champions League in the previous campaign, so experience in the competition will be required to ensure the disappointment from last season is not repeated.
Dybala would be an excellent signing, considering the Gunners were unable to sign Joao Felix in the January transfer window as Chelsea hijacked a deal. The Roma forward would be an ideal cheap alternative ahead of next season.
