Arsenal, which narrowly lost its championship goal to its strong rival Manchester City despite the pleasing positive football and rising performance graph it has exhibited in the English Premier League for the last two seasons, is preparing to pursue a very aggressive, attacking, and ambitious policy in the transfer market in order not to leave things to chance in the new season. According to the in-depth transfer analysis served by the reliable sports news site The Athletic, the team's successful Spanish manager Mikel Arteta strictly wants to add "elite potential" top-level talents to the squad who will level up the team's current attacking rotation, who can both produce high scores and flawlessly help in playmaking in narrow spaces. In this direction, two exciting star players are at the very top of the radar of the North London team's wide-ranging scout team: Turkish national player Kenan Yıldız, who plays for Juventus and is shown as one of Europe's biggest talents, and Argentine striker Julian Alvarez, who is bored of being a rotation player at Manchester City and wants more responsibility. In particular, the tremendous rise shown by young talent Kenan Yıldız in the Italian Serie A, his elite ball control, his incredible dribbling ability in tight spaces, his high football intelligence, and his perfect use of both feet have highly impressed Mikel Arteta. On the other hand, Julian Alvarez, with the epaulette of World Cup champion, who is uncomfortable being in Erling Haaland's shadow in Pep Guardiola's system and wants to be a regular starting 11 player, is seen as the ideal complementary piece that will perfectly adapt to Arsenal's pressing-oriented, fluid, and mobile attacking system. Among the strong information received is that the Arsenal board has largely completed its necessary financial preparations for these two giant transfers, follows the players' contract negotiations at their current clubs, their situations in the team, and possible hitches moment by moment, and is lying in wait to sit strongly at the table with astronomical offers that could break records when the slightest transfer opportunity window opens. Image: NTV Spor Source: The Athletic
