Arsenal’s attack is certainly an area that Mikel Arteta will want to strengthen this summer. Whilst the Gunners do boast a wealth of talent in forward areas more depth and quality will be needed to cope with their return to the European stage.
The Europa League may not be the competition they aspired to be in but the extra fixtures could hamper the significant progress made under Arteta if the club fail to add quality to their squad. Arsenal will have been boosted by the news that Eddie Nketiah is poised to sign a new contract, but further additions in forward areas will be needed in order to compete on domestic and continental fronts.
One player that has consistently been linked with a move to Emirates Stadium is Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling. The 27-year-old has become a somewhat peripheral figure at the Etihad and is believed to be eying a move away from the Premier League champions.
