Arsenal remain optimistic of strengthening their squad in the closing few days of the summer transfer window.
The Gunners have added Oleksandr Zinchenko, Gabriel Jesus and Fabio Vieira to their first-team ranks this summer but they are still light in several positions, particularly in attack – with Nicolas Pepe departing to Ligue 1 club Nice on loan – and in midfield depth.
Mikel Arteta’s side sit atop the early Premier League standings with four wins from their opening four matches, but there will be an awareness that if the club are to realise their ambitions of a top four finish – more additions are likely to be required.
