The second place finish in the Premier League for Arsenal in the 2023/2024 club football season seems to be a clear indicator that Mikel Arteta and his squad are moving in the right direction. The Gunners will be looking to take things further and step up their game in the 2024/2025 season and the current transfer reports and news lean towards the direction of the Arsenal signing players for key positions as well.
Players who could join Arsenal next season
The players who have been identified as possible transfer targets for Arsenal ahead of the 2024/2025 season have been categorised as talents and many also anticipate these players considering or opting for a move to the Emirates stadium as opposed to other clubs that might show interest in signing them.
The question of who these players are has been raised, and here are the key targets identified by reports so far:
- Benjamin Sesko
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal seem to have identified their lapses in the final third in terms of a striker that would convert chances created by the team.
Although Kai Havertz was deployed in the position in the 2023/2024 season, the possibility of Arteta wanting natural number 9 can not be ruled out.
It has been revealed that RB Leipzig is one of the top targets for the Gunners in the Summer 2024 transfer window.
- Martin Zubemendi to Arsenal
According to The Athletic, Arsenal is still very interested in signing Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Gunners have been eyeing the Spanish international for some time, and as per The Athletic, they are determined to secure his services. Reports suggest that Mikel Arteta admires his fellow countryman. However, a potential deal could be complex due to the player’s reluctance to leave his childhood club.
Zubimendi has a release clause estimated to be around £50 million in his contract, and this could be activated this summer 2024 transfer window.
Miguel Gutierrez
There have been rumours about potential left-back options for Arsenal, including Jorrel Hato and Ferdi Kadioglu.
However, reports suggest that Girona’s Miguel Gutierrez is the most promising candidate for the position at the Emirates Stadium in the June 2024 transfer window. In the attacking third, the Girona left-back often moves into midfield to penetrate the lines and operate in the half-spaces. Gutierrez is known for his creative ball-handling skills.
The Spanish left-back initially joined Girona on loan from Real Madrid, and his move was later made permanent in the summer of 2023. Since then, he has been a crucial player for Girona, contributing to their success as one of the top teams in La Liga this season.
