Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta wants to take a step closer to the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool this summer with some astute signings in the transfer window.
The Gunners are on course to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in six years. Victory against Tottenham in Thursday's North London derby would confirm fourth in the Premier League. They are four points clear of Spurs in fifth with three games to go.
Champions League qualification would help Arsenal attract top players to the Emirates. Owner Stan Kroenke is expected to pump more money into the club in the upcoming transfer window after Arteta spent more than £140million on new signings last summer.
