Arsenal on verge of third summer signing as Mikel Arteta drops new transfer hint
Arsenal are on the verge of completing their third summer signing but appear unlikely to enter the market for a new striker.
The Gunners have endured a subdued summer transfer window, only bringing in Riccardo Calafiori from Serie A side Bologna and making David Raya’s loan move from Brentford permanent.
Mikel Arteta did not think his Arsenal squad needed a massive overhaul after leading the Gunners to back-to-back second-place finishes in the Premier League.
One player he has targeted is Real Sociedad midfielder Mikel Merino and his move to Arsenal is now a ‘matter of hours away’, according to Spanish outlet AS.
