Arsenal Striker Transferred for £4 Million Outscores Alexander Isak; Poised to Join Forces with Eric Dier
Mika Biereth Shines Bright After Leaving Arsenal
Arsenal's failure to hold onto Biereth, a striker who's outscoring the likes of Alexander Isak, Kylian Mbappe, and Erling Haaland this season, has been a hot topic. Fans are left kicking themselves for selling him for just £4million last summer, a move that seems costly now.
The 22-year-old, who never made the grade at the Emirates, recently joined Ligue 1 club AS Monaco for a whopping €13 million. He had previously spent time with Austrian side SK Sturm Graz, where he won a league and cup double and scored a staggering 23 goals in just 22 appearances.
Following his impressive form in Austria, Biereth netted 12 goals in the Austrian Bundesliga before his move to Monaco. The Ligue 1 club, reeling from injuries to key players like Mikel Merino, Kai Havertz, and Gabriel Jesus, was eager to secure his services.
Upon joining Monaco, Biereth adapted swiftly. He bagged 10 goals in just seven appearances, attracting the attention of both Arsenal fans and potential suitors. With the Gunners struggling to find a clinical striker, Biereth's performances have only heightened the longing for a prolific goalscorer.
Monaco seized the opportunity to strengthen their squad and clinch a Champions League spot. Given Biereth's impressive run, Monaco fans are optimistic about their team's chances in Europe.
A Look into Mika Biereth's Post-Arsenal Journey
After leaving Arsenal, Mika Biereth's career has seen steady growth and outstanding achievements. He was loaned out to several teams to gain valuable first-team experience before securing a permanent spot with Sturm Graz. His impressive performances led to a move to Monaco, where he's been shining ever since.
Biereth's international journey is equally impressive. He represented Denmark against Portugal in the Nations League quarter-finals in March 2025. His decision to play for Denmark instead of other eligible countries like England, Germany, and Bosnia & Herzegovina speaks volumes about his commitment and loyalty.
As Monaco aims to secure a Champions League spot, Biereth's goal-scoring prowess could prove invaluable. His energy and skills on the pitch could give the team the edge they need to compete in Europe.
Ligue 1's Rising Star Joins Forces With Ex-Spurs Defender at Monaco
Monaco is strengthening its squad with the addition of former Tottenham defender Eric Dier. Dier, whose contract with Bayern Munich is set to expire, is close to signing a three-year deal with Monaco, with an additional 12 months as an option.
This move could mark the beginning of an exciting chapter for both players as Dier is likely to join his England teammate Harry Kane at Monaco. The centre-back is expected to leave Germany as a Bundesliga champion, a first title in his career.
