Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud admits he would welcome the competition were the Gunners to sign a new forward this summer.
Giroud scored 14 goals in 27 Premier League appearances last term, but some pundits continue to question whether the 28-year-old is good enough to spearhead a team who aspire to challenge for the title.
Speculation has mounted that manager Arsene Wenger may add to his attacking options, with Real Madrid star Karim Benzema reportedly his top target, but Giroud is unconcerned by the rumours.
"I'm not honouring this question. I'm trying to focus on my pre-season preparations," he said after Arsenal beat Everton 3-1 to win the Asia Trophy.
"We are doing well together with a really good [cohesion] and the most important thing for me is that the team is always improving.
"If there is a new striker, it will be nice for all the team, because competition is good for everyone."
