Arsenal legend urged his former club to strengthen three key areas this summer.
Mikel Arteta is expected to be bold in this transfer window after the club’s disappointing eighth-place finish in the Premier League last season.
They will be without European football for the first time in 25 years.
Mikel Arteta will be addressing key positions to strengthen this summer including the centre-back position.
Gunners legend Nigel Winterburn pinpoints three positions his former club needs to address this transfer window.
“They need another central midfield player to partner Partey and potentially an attacking midfielder,” Winterburn told NetBet.
“There’s questions about the centre halves, will Saliba come back into the plans?
“There’s a lot of questions to be asked at Arsenal, if Lacazette was to leave then they’d need another centre forward as well. There’s so many unanswered questions and so many ifs and buts about the squad.
“Some of the younger players may be moved on to raise funds if they aren’t going to be integrated into the first team.
“For me, they need a strong core of the team, whoever that may be player-wise. They need a strong centre back partnership, a strong midfield partnership and potentially a strong centre forward to make up that core.”
