Arsenal are not just finished yet as they fave some priority for the upcoming season.
Paul Merson has claimed that he had a talk with Arsenal director Edu recently, and claims they are in for a good season knowing who they are in line to sign.
The North London club look solid this summer and they signed few prominent players like Marquinhos, Fabio Vieira, Matt Turner and Gabriel Jesus. Gunners are not just finished yet as they fave some priority for the upcoming season.
Merson told Sky Sports (via the Standard), “They are looking good. I saw Edu on Sunday and we had a little chat and I think they’ve bought well. They’re trying to get a couple more players in and I think they could have a good season, Arsenal.
“I think try and get in the top four, and then you know small steps. But I think top four would definitely be the aim this season. I think they bought well.
“They’ve got young players in the team that have got another season under their belt so I don’t think there are too many excuses at Arsenal now there’s a good little team there.
“I can’t say [which targets Edu was talking to me about]. He was talking to me in confidence. We were at Elton John’s!”
Arsenal’s priority was to bring new number 9, and nothing got in their way in getting that done despite reported interest from other clubs.
There still appears to be at least one or two more key signings in the works, as well as squad players being brought in, and there does feel like we have plenty to look forward to, both in the current market and going into the new campaign.
