The top clubs always need to be on the lookout for the best talent both available and coming through the pipeline across the world. Millions are invested into trying to acquire these stars and Arsenal have had great success with Gabriel Martinelli, William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes to name but a few.
However, with Arsenal now looking to establish itself at the top, the level of player they’re aiming for also arguably needs to level up and sporting director Edu should prepare to battle with those dining at the top table of the market. Manchester City added Erling Haaland to the squad this summer and have benefited from his massive goal haul throughout the season.
Mikel Arteta has staved off Haaland and City’s attempts to ‘reel them in’ as the striker put it himself, and added in the January window to reinforce their push for the title. In the summer, discussions about how Arsenal can add their own transformative figure for the long-term future to different areas of the squad will surely take place.
