Arteta has not secured a Premier League title during his time at Arsenal, and the last three seasons have seen him finish as a runner-up. This summer, he aims to build a squad that can compete for the championship. The transfer of the Portuguese league's top scorer, Yorkres, is confirmed and just needs to be officially announced. As per Italian transfer expert Romano, the total fee is €73.6 million, comprising a fixed amount of €63.5 million plus an additional €10 million in performance-related bonuses.
It’s surprising to realize that Arsenal's spending on new signings this summer has reached €220 million, detailed as follows:
Arsenal's total expenditure on signings this summer has already surpassed €220 million, excluding the add-ons. In addition, Arsenal is pursuing Eze, with an anticipated transfer fee reaching £60 million. If, after completing this squad, Arsenal still fails to win the Premier League title next season, Arteta's position may become precarious. Given that Arsenal's squad is already top-tier and has not secured a significant trophy, the blame would likely fall on the manager.
