Arsenal have been one of the most active Premier League teams in the transfer window so far. The Gunners have already moved to bring Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Fabio Vieira, Marquinhos and Matt Turner to the Emirates and it so far appears to be working with the former Manchester City pair particularly impressing in pre-season. Despite this, Mikel Arteta has confirmed the club are still looking to add more faces if ‘the market allows’. Here Express Sport looks at the players he may be targeting as he looks to further strengthen his squad.
Arthur Melo
Arsenal have been linked with a move for the Juventus star in recent weeks with the Serie A club desperate to move the underperforming midfielder on.
He has failed to impress in Turin since his arrival in 2020 despite being considered one of the best young midfielders at the time.
Arteta will believe he is the man to help the Brazilian rediscover his best form – and he would be a fantastic addition to the squad if he was able to fulfil his original potential.
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
The Serbian international has been regularly tipped as Manchester United’s plan B for Frenkie de Jong which appears to have caught the attention of the Gunners.
The club are rumoured to have an interest in the Lazio star who would provide a useful extra option in the central area.
The Serie A side are reportedly happy to accept an offer of around £42m for his services which would give Arsenal the additional win of beating Champions League rivals United to one of their targets.
