Arsenal could be plotting a blockbuster move that might send shockwaves in the summer transfer market. Last summer, the Gunners were fantastic in the transfer market.
It was the first summer under their current Sporting Director, Andrea Berta, who joined the Emirates from Atletico Madrid. And, he made his presence felt in the transfer market.
They signed Viktor Gyokeres, Eberechi Eze, Martín Zubimendi, Noni Madueke, Christian Norgaard, Cristhian Mosquera, Kepa Arrizabalaga, and Piero Hincapie.
And the Gunners can see the results on the pitch. They were unbeaten in the preliminary round of the Champions League. Also, the Gunners are leading the Premier League table by four points.
As a result, Mikel Arteta understands the importance of using the transfer market smartly. That is why Arteta will be hoping that Berta can replicate the same success this summer.
Transfer News Live has already reported that the Gunners are eyeing a move for an AC Milan star. However, they will face competition from Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United.
However, there is another player that Arteta could sign next summer, which might send shockwaves throughout Europe. According to Fichajes, Arsenal are eyeing a move for Ousmane Dembele.
Also, CANAL+ reported that the Paris Saint-Germain star is unhappy at the club. Luis Enrique is trying to ease him back into the squad. But he wants more game time.
Last year, he won the Ballon d’Or after a fantastic season with PSG. He also won the Champions League last year with the French side.
Now, with Dembele unhappy at the club, Arteta could look to bring him to the Emirates, especially when he is looking to find a player to operate from the left wing.
Also, the Arsenal manager is not happy with the output of Viktor Gyokeres. In that case, adding a player like Dembele would help his cause because he can operate centrally as well.
Now, to convince PSG, Arsenal must offer an important fee. Otherwise, it seems signing Dembele will not be possible for the Gunners.
