Arsenal have been linked with several big names ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Gunners already have a fantastic squad with top-class players in almost every single position on the pitch.

However, there is still room for improvement, especially on the left wing.

One player Arsenal have been heavily linked with is Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Gary Lineker thinks the attacker doesn’t get the credit he deserves.

Gary Lineker says Arsenal target Khvicha Kvaratskhelia doesn’t get talked about enough

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is one of the best wingers in the world.

The Paris Saint-Germain star has been unbelievable over the last few years and is one of the biggest reasons why the Parisians won the Champions League last season.

PSG have no desire to let him leave, but Arsenal are interested in Kvaratskhelia and his camp are said to be open to offers.

It remains to be seen what will happen on that front, but Lineker appears to be a huge fan of Kvaratskhelia, so much so that he wants more people to talk about him.

He said on the Rest is Football podcast: “I’ll tell you who I like. I don’t know whether he’s slightly underrated.

“He doesn’t seem to get mentioned in the media, I mean he does, but not as much as he should do. Kvaratskhelia, what a beautiful footballer he is!

“Eight goals and four assists in the Champions League this season. He has been absolutely brilliant.”

Arsenal’s two big targets both delivered in the Champions League quarter-final

Arsenal won their Champions League quarter-final first leg against Sporting CP on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, the Gunners had the opportunity to sit back and watch the two other games: PSG vs Liverpool and Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid.

Kvaratskhelia scored to help his side beat the Reds, while fellow Arsenal target Julian Alvarez scored a stunning free-kick in his club’s win against the Catalans.

Those two attackers should be Arsenal’s top targets this summer, even though they would cost a fortune.

However, we think they will be worth every penny.
