Attacking midfield and upfront:
In a mouth-watering front four, Arsenal could be set to make a third raid on Real Madrid this summer with the addition of Argentine winger Angel Di Maria, who could line up either on the right or left flank depending on the availability of others. The 26-year-old has just had an outstanding campaign for Real, scoring 11 goals and providing 26 assists as he picked up a Champions League medal for his troubles. Also linked with Manchester United, it is thought that the Spanish giants could be willing to let him leave for just £40m this summer as they look to reinvest the money on other high-profile transfer targets. If Arsenal could bring in a player of this quality into the wide positions, it would be another major boost as he lines up alongside his old team-mate Mesut Ozil at the Emirates Stadium.
Another major signing from La Liga could come in the form of Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez – another top player who looks likely to be made available for transfer this summer despite his 21 goals and 15 assists in 2013/14. The Chilean was in fine form for his country at the World Cup, raising demand in his signature even further, and he could be a great new signing to start upfront for Arsene Wenger’s side if they can beat the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool to his signature.
