Whether or not Arsenal go on to win this season’s Premier League title, Mikel Arteta will surely want to improve his squad in key positions should certain players become available.
More so if the Gunners agonisingly miss out to either Man City or Liverpool for the big prize.
With 13 games left to go in the 2023/24 campaign (12 for Liverpool), any of the three teams could be considered as potential winners.
The Reds lead the table on 60 points at this stage, but if City and Arsenal win their games in hand, then they will sit on 59 and 58 points respectively.
It’s already turning into a real battle royale, and whomever remains the most consistent from this point will take the spoils.
There’s certainly reasons to believe that this one could go right to the wire and we could well see another finish to sit alongside the Aguero and Michael Thomas moments.
Arsenal hoping to cash in on Everton’s woes
Across Merseyside, things are looking quite different for Everton, who face a very real threat of going down.
Even if the Toffees are able to stay up, cashing in on Amadou Onana is likely to be a priority even if the club would be loathe to lose their midfield powerhouse.
The Sun suggest that Barcelona would want to rival Arsenal for Onana’s services, with Man United and Chelsea credited with an interest.
The outlet also suggest an asking price of £51m which would rule the Catalans out, however, TeamTalk note that Everton have, in fact, slapped an asking price of £80m on the player.
