Former Arsenal transfer target El Nesyri produces outrageous piece of skill in 5-goal thriller.
The Moroccan has been subject to Arsenal transfer interest in recent years, especially in 2022. Arsenal intensified interest in the Sevilla forward during Aubameyang’s troubling period in North London.
Alexander Lacazette and Eddie Nkethia were left to lead the line until the end of the season as Arsenal finished eight.
Arsenal stuck to Dusan Vlahovic as priority transfer target for that summer but the Serbian opted to sign for Juventus.
The cheapest alternative to Vlahovic as Arsenal sought to bring in a striker was Youssef En-Nesyri. Sevilla rated the then 24 year old at £36 million pounds following an impressive season at the club.
Arsenal sent scouts to monitor the forward as he delivered 24 goals in all competitions, including six in the champion’s league.
A move did not materialize with Arsenal plumping for Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City at £45 million.

Gabriel Jesus proved a hit in his first three months at Arsenal before being cut down by injury. His injury woes have continued to plague him, resulting in him being in and out of Mikel Arteta’s side.
Arsenal continue to be linked with a striker and perhaps they could turn to one of their former targets.
The Moroccan is still plundering the goals and even better, he is outscoring Gabriel Jesus. He has already reproduced last season’s tally of 18 goals with three games left to spare.
His put his talents on show versus Villarreal as he evaded his marker with a ridiculous piece of skill yesterday.
Video of his masterful execution can be seen below:
