Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is reportedly eyeing £77m’s worth of new signings this summer as he looks to send a clear message to his title rivals for next season.
The Gunners finished third in 2014/15, but looked one of the country’s in-form teams in the second half of the season as they won some big games and convincingly swept aside Aston Villa in the FA Cup final.
Arsenal will now hope to do better in the Premier League next season, and some already feel they look in the best shape to challenge Chelsea for top spot in 2015/16.
These possibly buys will certainly do no harm, with recent speculation suggesting three huge signings are on their way to the Emirates Stadium…
1) William Carvalho (Sporting Lisbon)
Valued at around £23m, Sporting Lisbon youngster William Carvalho looks an ideal signing in midfield for Arsenal, and may now be Wenger’s main target in that position after seemingly struggling to land the likes of Southampton star Morgan Schneiderlin and Borussia Dortmund’s Ilkay Gundogan.
2) Gonzalo Higuain (Napoli)
For a whopping £42m, Napoli striker Gonzalo Higuain also seems to be a top target for Arsenal this summer, with replacing the likes of Olivier Giroud and Danny Welbeck clearly a priority. With Jackson Martinez now heading to AC Milan, a move for the Argentine makes perfect sense for the north London giants.
3) Petr Cech (Chelsea)
For a further £12m, Arsenal could also make a major statement of intent by signing Petr Cech from champions Chelsea. The 33-year-old is not content with sitting on the bench and appears keen on staying in London, making a move to the Emirates likely, and there’s no doubt he’d be absolutely ideal to improving on the likes of Wojciech Szczesny and David Ospina.
