Arsenal planning mass attacking overhaul with three key positions targeted during summer transfer window

ARSENAL boss Mikel Arteta is set to be handed funds to strengthen in three key positions this summer.

The Spaniard has been allowed to spend £150million on new players this season, with more fresh recruits on the way ahead of next term.


The North Londoners currently sit fifth in the Premier League table, trailing rivals Spurs by three points.

According to Football London, owner Stan Kroenke will give Arteta money to spend on new players this summer.

They add that the Spaniard is after another striker, winger and central midfielder.

The goal-shy Gunners have been missing a lethal forward this season, having opted not to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in January.
