Arsenal are leaning towards a positive sale for one of their stars this summer.
Mikel Arteta has made his opinions clear that the Gunners must strengthen if they are to challenge Manchester City for the Premier League title next season. The Gunners finished just two points behind Pep Guardiola’s side, losing five times across an entertaining 2023/24 campaign.
But with a striker and a holding midfielder thought to be the priority, raising vital funds will help Arsenal in their quest for success, with two Premier League clubs having now offered to take away one of Arteta’s fringe players.
When asked about their transfer plans, Edu said: “You can’t sign for the sake of signing. This has to be a process that takes weeks and weeks. On my table, I have reports with over 180 pages of a player. It is really detailed. Physical, technical, mental profile – if you have experience of Premier League, if you will be able to adapt. It has it all.
“We analyse our shortcomings, where we can improve, where we can invest and from there we go in search of this new name. What I am going to do now, we have been discussing since January. It is not my decision or Mikel. It’s from a whole group.”
