Arsenal aim to strengthen their plan this summer by introducing midfielders and strikers

On February 7, Premier League giants Arsenal have set their sights on this summer transfer window and plan to make important reinforcements to the squad, with a focus on midfield and center forward positions. As no deals were reached during the winter transfer window, Arsenal management hopes to make a difference in the summer transfer market to improve the team's overall competitiveness and prepare for the Premier League and Champions League next season.

This season, Arsenal still has the hope of winning the Premier League, and they also need to take into account the Champions League. Although the team had rumors with several players during the winter transfer window, no deal was reached in the end. This decision caused dissatisfaction among some fans, who believed that the team missed a good opportunity to strengthen the lineup and improve their hopes of winning the championship. However, according to reports, Arsenal is not without a plan, but has chosen to postpone the signings and concentrate funds on the summer transfer window to ensure that they can introduce ideal players that fit the tactical system.

One of Arsenal's top recruitment goals is to strengthen the midfield, especially the No. 6 position. The contracts of the team's main player Thomas Partey and the backup midfielder Jorginho will expire at the end of the season. If neither of them renews their contracts, the team's depth in the defensive midfield position will be greatly reduced. Therefore, Arsenal management hopes to introduce a player who can control the rhythm of the game and organize the offense to enhance the team's midfield stability.

Currently, Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubairmendi is considered the Gunners' top target. The Spanish player is known for his excellent passing and tactical execution, and his contract contains a buyout clause. It is reported that Arsenal has basically reached an agreement with the player and plans to activate his buyout clause in the summer transfer window and bring him to the Emirates Stadium.

In addition to strengthening the midfield, Arsenal also hopes to introduce a top center forward to improve offensive firepower. At present, although the team has Havertz, the overall forward firepower is still insufficient, so introducing an efficient shooter has become the team's priority option.

The Gunners' first choice is Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak. Since joining the Premier League, the Swedish international has attracted Arsenal's attention with his stable goal efficiency and outstanding personal ability. However, Newcastle United is expected to set a high price for him, and it will not be easy for the Gunners to reach a deal.

In addition, Arsenal is also paying attention to the Slovenian striker Benjamin Sheshko of RB Leipzig . Compared with Isaac, Sheshko is younger and has greater development potential. At the same time, the transfer fee is relatively low, so it is also an option that Arsenal may consider.

Overall, Arsenal is expected to be very active in the transfer market this summer. The team's main recruitment direction is concentrated in the midfield and center position, including Real Sociedad's Zubimendi, Newcastle United's Isak and Leipzig Red Bull's Sheshko. The Gunners hope to further enhance the depth of the lineup through precise recruitment and prepare for the Premier League and Champions League next season.
