Arsenal are keen to further strengthen their squad this summer as they look to continue their progression under Mikel Arteta ahead of the new season.
The Gunners have improved each campaign under the tenure of their former midfielder and that is partly due to their shrewd activity in the transfer market under him.
In the summer of 2023, Arsenal broke their transfer record to sign Declan Rice from West Ham for €116.6 million.
In addition, Kai Havertz, Jurrien Timber and David Raya (loan) also arrived during the same window as the Gunners spent big after missing out on the English top flight title.
The club haven't been shy in splashing the cash recently to try and fight the might of Manchester City and Liverpool in the Premier League, and with an injection of Champions League money, they are set to splurge on transfers this summer once again.
We exclusively detailed via Steve Kay that Arsenal are prepared to SMASH their transfer record this summer, with Arteta set to be backed heavily in the transfer market.
As always with such a big club, the Arsenal transfer rumour mill is in full swing, with Arteta keen to add to the talent he has already brought to the club.

Williams unsure about Arsenal
Arsenal are currently leading the race to sign Nico Williams but the player himself is unsure about whether to move to North London.
The Spain winger will again be a wanted man this summer and is a target of many teams due to his €58 million release clause, with Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd and Barcelona some of the clubs linked.
Williams loves Athletic Club as well as the city of Bilbao, however, and the Basque club are willing to offer him a bumper new deal to stay. It is for those reasons that a move to Arsenal is by no means a foregone conclusion. (GiveMeSport)
Kudus price SLASHED
Arsenal could secure a cut-price deal for Mohammed Kudus.
The West Ham forward was a revelation with the club last season but has been unable to replicate that form in what has been a dismal campaign for the Hammers in 2024/25.
The East London side initially wanted €100 million to allow him to leave, while a €120m move to Saudi Arabia was mentioned, but TeamTalk reports that the club would accept €70m.
EXCLUSIVE
Kean deal unlikely
Moise Kean is unlikely to move to Arsenal or Newcastle this summer.
The Fiorentina striker is enjoying a superb season in Florence, with 17 Serie A goals to his name in 2024/25.
His performances have catalysed interest from Premier League clubs, but according to Tuttomercatoweb, Kean doesn't want to leave Fiorentina and risk his spot in the Italy squad for the 2026 World Cup.

Arsenal won't sign Sterling permanently
Arsenal won't sign Raheem Sterling on a permanent basis but the player hasn't been officially informed yet.
Sterling is currently on loan at Arsenal from Manchester City but has had a dismal campaign, rarely making an impact when given the chance.
His future is up in the air as neither Arsenal nor Man City want him next season. (Mail)

Arsenal and Chelsea battle for wonderkid
Arsenal identify surprise target
Arsenal are interested in signing Nathan Collins from Brentford.
The Gunners are well-stocked in the centre of defence at the moment with William Saliba, Ben White, Gabriel, Riccardo Calafiori and Jakub Kiwior all in the squad, but should any of them leave, Arteta will look to Collins to provide cover. (TBR Football)
Coman price SLASHED
One of Arsenal's transfer targets has had his asking price slashed ahead of the summer transfer window.
The Gunners remain interested in a deal for Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman even if they previously baulked at the €70 million valuation set by the German giants.
Now, that asking price has been halved to €35m so Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta could look to strike a deal to provide more competition in those wide areas. (TEAMtalk)

Delap prefers Arsenal or Chelsea to Man Utd
Ipswich will be relegated from the Premier League before the end of the season and when it is made official, a £30 million relegation clause will activate for Liam Delap.
The player will be a wanted man this summer as half the league is interested in a deal, but it is believed he wants to play in Europe which has alerted the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea.
That preference also rules out the possibility of a move to Man Utd - unless they win the Europa League. (Daily Express)
Tierney desperate for Celtic return
Kieran Tierney appears poised to return to Celtic this summer.
The Scotland international signed for Arsenal from Celtic for £25 million in 2019 but injury issues in the last couple of seasons have led to him falling down the pecking order at the Emirates.
His contract is up in a couple of months, and a return to Glasgow is likely after he reportedly rejected offers from Everton, Juventus and Leverkusen. (Daily Record)
