How Arsenal Could Line Up with Dream Summer Signings
Andrea Berta’s arrival as Arsenal’s sporting director signals an ambitious summer transfer window, with major reinforcements in attack and midfield.
Target #1: Viktor Gyokeres (Sporting CP) – The Goal Machine
Arsenal is prioritizing a top-class striker, and Viktor Gyokeres has emerged as the leading candidate. The Swedish forward has been in sensational form, scoring 42 goals and providing 11 assists this season. At a reported £58.5 million, he represents a cost-effective alternative to more expensive options.
Target #2: Matheus Cunha (Wolves) – Versatile Forward Option
Arsenal is also interested in Matheus Cunha, whom Berta previously signed at Atletico Madrid. With 15 goals in 29 appearances this season, Cunha’s versatility makes him an exciting addition. His £62.5 million release clause makes the deal feasible if Arsenal pursues him.
Target #3: Martin Zubimendi (Real Sociedad) – Midfield Reinforcement
Reports suggest Arsenal has already secured a €60 million deal for Martin Zubimendi, a highly-rated defensive midfielder. With Jorginho and Thomas Partey set to leave, the Spaniard would slot in perfectly alongside Declan Rice.
Retaining Key Players: Saka & Saliba Extensions
Arsenal is also focused on extending contracts for Bukayo Saka and William Saliba, whose deals run until 2027. Ensuring their long-term commitment is crucial for Arsenal’s ambitions.
