Arsenal are expected to make early moves in the summer transfer window as Mikel Arteta prepares his squad for pre-season.

Stan Kroenke backs Mikel Arteta amid yet another trophyless season but there is hope that with the help of Andrea Berta and the right acquisitions this summer, Arsenal can achieve great success next campaign.

Arsenal are close to signing Viktor Gyokeres to finally add the missing centre forward to their armoury with the Swede having scored over 50 goals for Sporting Lisbon this season.

Nico Williams and Jamie Gittens have been linked to the club in the wide areas but Arteta would have been put on red alert after Real Madrid star Rodrygo has made his stance very clear over his future.

Rodrygo’s incredible stance on Real Madrid future

Arsenal have made contact with Rodrygo over a potential summer move to North London and the club will be encouraged by the latest twist over his future in Spain.

According to Spanish publication Marca, Rodrygo does not want to represent Real Madrid again after feeling ‘displaced’ following the arrivals of Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe to the club.

Rodrygo missed Real Madrid’s clash with Barcelona after Carlo Ancelotti claimed the forward was ‘not feeling well.’

AS claim that Rodrygo is a name that is ‘liked’ at the Emirates Stadium and the Gunners could now look to take advantage of the Brazilian’s uncertainty at the Bernabeu.

Arteta has been crying out for more firepower in attacking areas all season and Rodrygo would represent an excellent addition to his Arsenal squad if a deal can be struck.

How Rodrygo compares with Nico Williams and Jamie Gittens this season

Arsenal want ready-made players to come into the club this summer as they are within touching distance of their first major trophy since the FA Cup in 2020.

Nico Williams is a long term target for Arsenal in the wide areas but the sudden change in situation over Rodrygo may cause the Gunners to alter plans.

It is clear that all three players have an impact on scoring and creating goals, it is now up to the Gunners to choose the right player and get the right deal for the club.

If Arteta can acquire one of these wingers alongside Gyokeres, already Arsenal’s blunt attack looks sharper heading into the challenge of next season.
