“The planning is already clear” – Fabrizio Romano details Arsenal’s summer plans

Arsenal’s plans for the summer transfer window have been outlined by Fabrizio Romano, shedding light on what the Gunners aim to achieve as they gear up for the new season.

After a quiet June focused on financial stability, the North London club is ready to invest heavily to strengthen their squad.

Priorities in Defense and Midfield

Despite their significant spending in the summer of 2023, Arsenal is determined to continue building a team capable of clinching the Premier League title.

Romano, as quoted by The Sun, emphasized the club’s intent to bring in a left-footed defender as a priority.

“It depends on what kind of opportunities there will be, but a left-footed defender is something that Arsenal want to bring in and will probably bring in this summer. This is one of the priorities.”

“Something could happen in the midfield and offensive positions.

“Then a new back-up goalkeeper in case Aaron Ramsdale leaves the club.

This addition is crucial for Mikel Arteta’s side as they look to enhance their defensive options.

Romano also highlighted potential movements in the midfield and offensive positions.

The Gunners are considering their options carefully, looking to seize the right opportunities to bolster these areas.

Adding high-quality players to these positions is seen as essential for improving the team’s overall strength and depth.

Goalkeeper Situation and Joshua Kimmich Rumors

Another key area of focus is the backup goalkeeper position.

There is speculation around Aaron Ramsdale’s future at the club, prompting Arsenal to seek a reliable alternative should he depart.

Ensuring stability in the goalkeeping department is crucial for the team’s aspirations next season.

Romano also mentioned the possibility of Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich being on the move after the Euros.

With his contract expiring next summer, Kimmich is reportedly open to considering a transfer, with the Premier League being a likely destination.

Arsenal is among the few clubs he is considering, making this a potentially significant signing for the Gunners.

Romano concluded by stating, “The planning is already clear, Arsenal are relaxed.”

This indicates a level of confidence and clarity in their approach to the transfer market, as they aim to build a squad capable of winning the league.
