Arsenal are planning a serious revamp of their forward line this summer.
The Gunners fell short of the 2024/25 Premier League title by 10 points, but in truth, they were considerably inferior to a relentless Liverpool side this year.
Mikel Arteta’s men fell short of Manchester City (72) and the Reds (86) for goals scored in the Premier League this term.

Admittedly, the Premier League runners-up did spend a considerable portion of the campaign without their best attacking threat in Bukayo Saka. The England international missed 13 top-flight games.
Regardless, the hope is that moves for the likes of Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig could see the pendulum swing back in Arsenal’s favour.
A further move to bolster the left wing with potential free agent Leroy Sane likewise wouldn’t hurt that ambition.
“Bayern signed Jonathan Tah this week (til 2029). There was a meeting with his agent Pini Zahavi (at the restaurant Käfer) with Max Eberl, head of sport at FC Bayern,” Christian Falk exclusively informed CaughtOffside in his latest Fact Files column.
“His other client with the club, Leroy Sané, was also under discussion. Bayern want to give the potential free agent a contract til 2028.
“But: Now there are other clubs interested. Zahavi is talking with Tottenham and Arsenal, but Chelsea are not very concrete.”
That is, of course, dependent on Sane opting to reject Bayern’s reportedly improved contract proposal. The German international’s current terms in Munich are set to expire this summer.
