Arsenal came incredibly close to winning their first Premier League title in 19 years during the 2022/23 season. The Gunners were eventually beaten by a brilliant Manchester City side and must recruit in the summer transfer window to close the gap on the champions.
Sporting director Edu and manager Mikel Arteta have already held conversations about transfer targets and plans are well underway to improve the squad for the 2023/24 campaign. "Mikel and I talked, and we believe we can raise our performance to a new level," Edu told ESPN Brasil.
"Now we have to do good work in the transfer window, we have to understand what we need, get the right athletes, the right traits, and the right athlete mentality so we can raise our squad’s level again."
