4. Sign a new attacker

Mikel Arteta's side were initially reported to be targeting a new attacker in this transfer window in the form of a striker or winger. This is less of a priority considering nothing came of these reports but is still important.

Bukayo Saka has been constantly playing on the right wing for Arsenal for years and has had no cover of similar ability. A constant target for opposition defenders, he needs this soon as the England international will not be able to play week in week out much longer without doing any serious damage.

Current players like Reiss Nelson and Fabio Vieira are nowhere near good enough to be providing cover for Saka without causing a huge increase in the team's quality. If the Gunners do sign a new attacker, it should be a winger that can provide cover for Saka.
