Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke will back Mikel Arteta in the transfer market this summer to take the club to a "different level", sporting director Edu Gaspar has confirmed.
The Gunners took Manchester City to the wire in the Premier League title race this season. A difficult April resulted in the north Londoners falling short and eventually finishing five points behind the champions.
Arsenal's focus is now on the summer transfer window - which opens on June 14 - to make the necessary upgrades to Arteta's squad ahead of the 2023/24 season. It's reported that Arsenal will have a budget of £200million to spend on new signings, with another midfielder, a defender and possibly another forward on the agenda.
