Arsenal’s summer transfer window begins in earnest on Sunday when the market reopens briefly for clubs to do their business.
The Gunners have ten days to start their summer shopping after FIFA agreed to open the transfer window early for the clubs that are set to take part in the Club World Cup next month. Only Manchester City and Chelsea are representing the Premier League in the United States but all teams across Europe can take advantage of the extra ten days before it shuts and reopens again on June 16 for the remainder of the summer.
For Mikel Arteta, the summer transfer window represents a huge moment in his managerial career. This past season was meant to be the Gunners’ year but yet again they finished second in the Premier League, this time behind Liverpool.
This has led to question marks surrounding whether or not Arteta has what it takes to take Arsenal to that next level. Extenuating circumstances surrounding the 2024/25 campaign have given the Gunners’ boss a reprieve but the club has to win at least one major trophy next season.
To do this, it is expected that Arsenal will be adding to their squad extensively to give themselves the best possible chance. Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi is expected to be announced sooner rather than later by the Gunners.
However, it is not just the Spanish Euro 2024 winner that Arsenal will be looking to add. Ahead of the transfer window opening briefly on Sunday, football.london has taken a look at ten players who are being tipped to sign for the Gunners this summer, according to bet365.
