Arsenal Summer Transfer Window 2022 News

There is a gap in domestic football action, which of course means that the focus is shifting towards transfers in the summer of 2022. Arsenal knows what they need; they just need to go out and get it. Mikel Arteta and Arsenal technical director, Edu Gaspar are gearing up for one of the most important seasons in recent times. The Gunners are performing poorly and they desperately need to bounce back from their dreadful form. They have signed a host of fresh faces this season, spending an astronomical amount of £150m, the highest by any Premier League club this campaign. The Gunners have spent big in recent years, with 2021 seeing them snap up Martin Odegaard, Aaron Ramsdale, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Albert Sambi Lokonga.

Arsenal’s technical director, Edu, has revealed that the club are drawing up plans for the summer transfer window that will allow them to move for “one or two players” that would help to raise collective standards. Pablo Mari joined Arsenal in January 2022 on loan from Flamengo with an option to make the deal permanent in the summer. On 1st July, he joined the club on a permanent transfer for an undisclosed fee but according to reports is supposed to be worth around £14m. The biggest coup of them all was getting Thomas Partey on deadline day by activating his release clause. Atletico Madrid was unwilling to negotiate a lower fee and that left Arsenal with no choice but to go all in for the 27-year-old.

Former Arsenal forward Serge Gnabry has been linked with a surprise return to the Emirates this summer as Arsenal prepares for a busy transfer window. Gnabry, who left the Gunners in the summer of 2016, looks set to leave Bayern Munich ahead of next season after failing to agree to a new contract with the German giants. According to a report from a German news outlet, the 26-year-old wants to leave Bayern due to the player wanting to feel like he has an important role in the team, as well as his desire to play in a more central position rather than on the wing.

Mikel Arteta’s side is in the market for one or two new centre-forwards this summer and could look to Gnabry as one option, with the German international wanting to play through the middle, rather than on the wing where Arsenal already have the likes of Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Emile Smith Rowe. The Gunners have been linked with moves for Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus and Roma’s Tammy Abraham, but Gnabry could offer an exciting alternative due to his versatility and love for the club.
