Arsenal is being one of the teams that plans to strengthen itself more and better in the current summer market. So far, they have only announced the addition of Kai Havertz, from Chelsea, but in the coming days they hope to introduce three more new faces. Mikel Arteta is very clear about what should be the priority objective for next season, which is to take the Premier League title from Manchester City, which seems unbeatable.
In order to overcome Pep Guardiola’s men, current champions of the Champions League, they will need to improve the competitive level of the squad, and for this they have practically closed Declan Rice. The agreement seems to be complete between all parties, and West Ham United will receive financial compensation of more than 100 million euros for the loss of their captain. An incredible amount, especially considering that his contract ended in 2024.
However, from the Emirates Stadium they have wanted to solve this matter as soon as possible, in order to prevent it from ending up in another team. And it is that it had also been placed on the agenda of Liverpool, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Real Madrid or Bayern Munich. Together with the English internationalthe landing of Jurrien Timber is also sealed, which will cost approximately 50 ‘kilos’.
He had become one of the most promising defenders in Europe thanks to the incredible campaigns he had carried out in the ranks of Ajax Amsterdam, where he had aroused the interest of multiple ‘top’ clubs. But Arteta has convinced the promising 22-year-old centre-back, who can also act as a right-back, to continue his career in London. It will be unveiled in a matter of hours, and is bound to be a regular headline.
Although these two operations will not be the only ones that the ‘gunners’ carry out, because they are also in advanced negotiations with another footballer who has been a personal request from Arteta.
Romeo Lavia, the piece to complete the puzzle
To finish, Arteta also asks for a new midfielder to accompany Rice and Ödegaard in the midfield, and the one chosen for this is Romeo Lavia, who has been one of the few news items left by Southampton in the last campaign.
After his team’s relegation to the Championship, he wants to change the scene, and Arsenal is the main candidate to sign the Belgian pearl, which would have a price ranging between 35 and 45 million.
