Arsenal face a decisive summer in the transfer market as Mikel Arteta’s side look to go one better than their consecutive second-placed finishes over the last two seasons.
The Gunners know that only minor changes are needed after finishing just two points behind champions Manchester City in the Premier League. But if they are to end the top-flight dominance of Pep Guardiola’s team, quality additions to the first team will need to be made.
And the striker position is one area which has seen several players linked in recent months. Newcastle’s Alexander Isak and RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko have been among the names mentioned. Midfield is another area with Douglas Luiz and Bruno Guimaraes also linked.
Outgoings are also likely to happen this summer with Aaron Ramsdale, Emile Smith Rowe and Thomas Partey among those possibly up for sale. Ramsdale to Newcastle has gathered some serious pace since the end of the season and now updates on Smith Rowe and Partey have come to light which certainly suggest the duo could depart.
