Make no mistake about it, Arsenal's summer transfer window is officially in full swing with the signing of Kai Havertz one of three deals confirmed by the club in the past week.
While the Germany international has arrived in north London, heading in the opposite direction has been Catalin Cirjan who has joined Rapid Bucharest on a season-long loan deal and Mazeed Ogungbo has joined up with League Two side Barrow AFC on a permanent transfer.
They follow on from Ainsley Maitland-Niles and several players across the men's and women's first-team, U23, and U18 squads and scholars leaving when their contracts expire at the end of the month in addition to young striker Nikolaj Moller joining St Gallen permanently.
But Mikel Arteta and sporting director Edu Gaspar are not done. The pair continue to work on deals to ensure the Arsenal squad is strong enough to compete for the Premier League title next season as well as going far in both domestic cup competitions and the Champions League.
In fact, developments and reports from the past 24 hours or so alone indicate that the Gunners pair are extremely busy at the moment and football.london runs down what deals are currently in play as it looks like it's just a matter of time before there is a flurry of announcements to delight supporters.
New signings
There's only one place to start and that's with a club-record £105 million deal for Declan Rice. It was reported on Wednesday evening that after seeing two bids rejected by West Ham United, the Gunners finally had an offer accepted and it's been claimed that the green light to undergo a medical has been granted.

Jurrien Timber is another player whom Arsenal are interested in. After seeing an opening offer rejected by Ajax, according to De Telegraaf, this transfer is now close to completion with the north London outfit agreeing to pay an initial €42million (£36million) fee which could rise to €47million (£40million) if certain add-ons are met.
Contract renewals
It's not just new arrivals on the radar in N5 as football.london understands William Saliba has verbally agreed a new four-year contract and that talks regarding a new deal for Reiss Nelson are now in the final stages, with the club confident a deal can be finalised.
Outgoings
It may have gone quiet but Granit Xhaka is expected to complete a £13million move to Bayer Leverkusen, and all that remains is an official announcement with regard to Pablo Mari's £5.9million permanent transfer to Monza after the Spanish defender helped the Serie A side avoid relegation in the 2022/23 season.
What do you make of Declan Rice's value?
