Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says he will bolster a squad that is lacking “firepower” to win trophies.
Arsenal have this week been linked with a move for Real Madrid forward Rodrygo.
It will be a vital summer for Arsenal as they target a striker with RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko, Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyokeres, and Newcastle’s Alexander Isak all possible contenders.
Speaking on Thursday, Arteta said: “If you want to win major trophies, you have to be the best in the market, no? The teams that win always have the best players.

“I wouldn’t like to name a player, but there is pride because we have brought the club into a position that next season people are saying: ‘You have to win a major trophy.’
“And that means that everybody believes, and that we are an elite team in this country and in Europe. The biggest statement is that Arsenal is there.
“What is clear with the amount of injuries that we had in the front line is that we need a goal threat and we need firepower. Understanding that the context can change tomorrow, we cannot rely just on the numbers that we had before.
“We have to add goals, creativity, and we have to add numbers, and that will be in different positions.”
