Arteta ‘in pain’ after Arsenal miss out on Champions League
Arsenal look to be one of the top spenders in the upcoming summer transfer market after the club’s owners have revealed that they are ready to back Mikel Arteta following a much-improved season in which they narrowly missed out on the top four.

Gunners ‘sound out’ Richarlison
Mikel Arteta remains on the hunt for two new strikers this summer and although Arsenal are growing closer to a deal for Manchester City ’s Gabriel Jesus, the Gunners have reportedly ‘sounded out’ Everton’s Richarlison in recent weeks ahead of a potential move to the Emirates.
The north London club have previously expressed interest in fellow Toffees forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin, but it now appears that his Brazilian teammate has taken centre stage and the Gunners have attempted to make contact with his representatives, according to GOAL.
Richarlison recorded 10 goals and five assists on Merseyside this season as Everton battled off unimaginable relegation to the Championship this season, and a big-money move to the Emirates Stadium this summer could certainly be of interest to the 25-year-old.
