After three seasons finishing second in the Premier League, Arsenal have opened their wallets to avoid another title heartbreak. Following their 2022-23 and 2023-24 runner-up finishes behind Manchester City, Arsenal failed to reinforce their attack properly last summer.
Idman.biz, citing Reuters, reports that the loan signing of Raheem Sterling, a winger past his prime, drew criticism from fans.
Last season, injuries to key forwards Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, and Kai Havertz widened the gap to Liverpool, extending Arsenal’s league title drought to 21 years. Under new sporting director Andrea Berta, the club changed tactics, spending nearly £200 million before August.
New signings include midfielders Martin Zubimendi and Christian Norgaard, defender Cristhian Mosquera, winger Noni Madueke, goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, and striker Viktor Gyokeres, who scored 54 goals last season. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta praised the club’s aggressive approach and remains optimistic for the campaign ahead.
