Arteta has been praised for his ability to make the team play attractive football, and last season's Champions League performance against Real Madrid was a testament to this. However, the lack of silverware is starting to put pressure on the manager, and he needs to make the right decisions in the transfer window to finally bring the title to the Emirates Stadium.
One of the key signings that Arsenal are close to making is that of Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad. The transfer is expected to be completed soon, and it would be a significant coup for the club, with several top teams having shown interest in the player.
Another player that Arsenal are reportedly interested in is Viktor Gyokeres, a highly-rated striker who has also been linked with Manchester United and other top teams. However, any move for the player could be complicated by the interest of other teams, including his former manager, Ruben Amorim.
With Thomas Partey's future at the club uncertain, Arsenal are also looking to bring in a replacement, and Christian Norgaard from Brentford could be the answer. The 31-year-old midfielder has an excellent record in the Premier League, with 189 tackles won and 844 ball recoveries since making his top-flight debut in 2021.
Norgaard's signing could be a masterstroke for Arteta, as he provides the defensive protection that the team needs, and would allow Declan Rice to play in a more attacking midfield role. The former West Ham captain can also operate in a defensive midfield position, giving Arteta some excellent options in the midfield.
For Brentford, the loss of Norgaard could be a significant blow, as they already face the departure of manager Thomas Frank to Tottenham Hotspur and the likely departure of Bryan Mbeumo to Manchester United. The Bees will need to replace Norgaard if they want to stay in the Premier League next season.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are looking to continue their buying spree to bring the glory days back to the club. With the signing of Norgaard and possibly Zubimendi, Arteta is taking steps to strengthen his team and finally bring the title to the Emirates Stadium.
As the transfer window heats up, Arsenal fans will be eagerly waiting to see who else their team will sign to make a serious challenge for the title.
