Mikel Arteta has made the improvement of Arsenal’s defence a priority since his arrival at the cub. He has already spent more than £100 million on the defence in the window with five new signings and a potential sixth coming in this summer.
Pablo Mari, Cedric Soares, Gabriel Magalhaes, Nuno Tavares, Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu were brought in the past two summers. Arsenal have also added Aaron Ramsdale and Matt Turner, that were not included in the above valuation due to their role as goalkeepers.
Oleksandr Zinchenko is reportedly closing on a potential move to Arsenal after both the Gunners and Manchester City agreed on a fee in the region of £30million. The Ukrainian can play in midfield but has featured predominantly as a left-back for the Citizens.
