Mikel Arteta has already confirmed that this summer is going to be a busy one for Arsenal. The Gunners finished just two points off the Champions League places last season and are keen to bridge the gap this time around. When asked what the club were planning to do to make that happen Arteta was clear.
"We want to take the club to the next level," the Spaniard said in his press conference ahead of the final game of the season against Everton. "That's the ambition. In order to do that we have a very clear plan again, how we want to do it and execute it, and there are no secrets. We need resources and we need to increase the quality and the depth of the squad."
In order to do that they are looking at bringing in several players. Matt Turner's arrival from New England Revolution is imminent, but a striker is top of the agenda, with Manchester City's Gabriel Jesus thought to be the main target. Youri Tielemans has also been linked at central midfield, while full back Aaron Hickey is another whose name has been mentioned. While getting players into the club is going to be huge for Arsenal this summer, moving on others could also be key.
