The 2024–25 Premier League schedule is out. Arsenal is already preparing for a big season. Xavi Simons and Artem Dovbyk are both likely to join Arsenal for a combined £93 million. They are clearly committed to chasing Manchester City for the championship after missing it by the narrowest of margins last season, as seen by their investment. With the arrival of Dovbyk, a prolific scorer, and highly-rated midfielder Simons, Mikel Arteta’s side should be much stronger.
Impressive performances from Arsenal players like Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, Declan Rice, and Leandro Trossard have kept the club’s title hopes alive throughout the 2024 European Championship. Arteta is crossing his fingers that his players are well enough to start the new season. At the same time, Edu, Arsenal’s sports director, is still actively pursuing new players. Simons and Dovbyk are now the most talked-about possible signings, while the chase of Benjamin Sesko has been fruitless. The team is hopeful that they will be able to complete these deals before the start of the season.
Arsenal Eye Two Significant Transfers In The Summer Window
When Arsenal travels to the United States in July, it will be a great chance for the club’s new players to get some game time. In August, when the Premier League season begins, Arteta hopes to have his whole roster prepared to play. Adding Simons and Dovbyk would give the squad a huge boost, and the desire to contend for the crown is clear. The next Premier League season is shaping up to be very tough, what with other elite teams like Manchester City also bolstering their rosters.
The result of the two transfers and the team’s formation for the next season are two topics that Arsenal supporters are very interested in. A serious championship challenge is something the club is clearly committed to. To make that happen, they are prepared to spend substantially on the team.

Spending will be massive for Arsenal this summer. Viktor Gyokeres, a striker for Sporting Lisbon, has been their target. The Gunners are reportedly prepared to pay anything from £50 million to £60 million to sign the Swedish international, according The Sun. After thinking about him as a potential replacement for Benjamin Sesko, this decision was made.
Scouts from Arsenal have been keeping tabs on Gyokeres all season long. To them, he is an invaluable asset to their offensive. Negotiations with Sporting Lisbon are imminently desired by the London club. The problem is, there’s a huge hurdle. The €100 million (£84 million) full release clause for Gyokeres is demanded by Sporting. With such a high asking price, there is a significant disparity between Arsenal’s and Sporting’s willingness to pay.
A big stumbling block is the disparity between £25 million and £35 million. A difficult choice now lies before Arsenal. They have to decide whether they want to pursue other prospects or raise their offer. Sporting would rather trade Ousmane Diomande or Goncalo Inacio than their own players, even if they are in a position where they need to sell. It is worth noting that Arsenal has been said to be interested in both defenders for the last 12 months. Also, Gyokeres seems to be the Gunners’ current priority.
