Arsenal prioritizing a better winger than Leroy Sane in summer 2025 window

Arsenal are in the market for attacking help in the summer 2025 transfer window after paying the price of not signing a top striker in summer 2024, which has been complete annihilation at the hands of Liverpool in the 2024/25 Premier League table. The Gunners will almost assuredly be after a striker in the upcoming summer market, and there is a gamut of strong, emerging options up top such as Benjamin Sesko, Hugo Ekitike, Viktor Gyokeres, Alexander Isak, and potentially more. But Arsenal don't just need a new striker to spice up the attack. The North London giants should also be looking for more wingers. A right winger to back Bukayo Saka up would be nice, but someone to compete heavily with Gabriel Martinelli on the left side should be nearly as big of a priority as a striker. Th...

Arsenal have a staggering transfer budget for summer 2025 window

Arsenal have been criticized for not being aggressive enough in the summer transfer window, and they paid for it dearly this season by falling well and truly out of the Premier League title race after failing to sign a striker in summer 2024. Now, the Gunners are firmly in the market for a top striker in the summer 2025 transfer window, but they have also been linked to two world-class midfielders in Bruno Guimaraes and Martin Zubimendi, who will reportedly be the priorities of the new sporting director. GiveMeSport insider Ben Jacobs corroborates this information and adds in his own report that Arsenal will have a whopping 300 million pounds to spend in the coming transfer window. That's major cash that Arsenal can use to sign both those midfielders - if they want to - and still ...

Arsenal’s new sporting director is prioritizing two world-class midfield transfers

Arsenal have hired former Atletico Madrid sporting director Andrea Berta to lead the club in the same role, replacing Edu, who left the Gunners in early November of last year to head up the Nottingham Forest project (among a group of clubs). Berta has the task of turning Arsenal into a Premier League champion again. It's been decades since Arsenal last reached the very summit of the Premier League, and while they came close to winning it all in each of the past two seasons, the Gunners have fallen far behind in the 2024/25 season. With the struggles in front of goal this season, Arsenal clearly need to sign a top striker after balking on addressing the position in the summer 2024 transfer window. But even after signing one of the best midfielders in LaLiga last year in Mikel Merino, ...

The 3 worst contracts Chelsea must get rid of in summer 2025 transfer window

Here are three terrible contracts notorious spenders Chelsea must offload in the summer 2025 transfer market. All wage details come via FBRef.com. LB Marc Cucurella Even with the caveat that it helped facilitate the move for starting center back Levi Colwill, the Marc Cucurella transfer has to be one of the worst in Premier League history as a 65 million euro acquisition for a below-average left back who is more known for memes and controversy rather than his thoroughly underwhelming play on the pitch. Chelsea haven't had a competent left back in a long time, and Cucurella is only starting because Ben Chilwill could never get healthy. Although the best ability is availability, as many like to say now, Cucurella pretty much only has that going for him. At 9.1 million pounds per sea...

The 3 worst contracts Man United must get rid of in summer 2025 transfer window

Here are three dreadful contracts Manchester United desperately need to get off their books in the summer 2025 transfer window. All wage details are provided by FBRef.com. DM Casemiro There is no doubt that Casemiro is the player Manchester United most need to give the old axe in 2025, and with one year left on his contract, now is the only time for United to get some sort of a fee out of the legendary defensive midfielder from a club in Saudi Arabia. Really, Manchester United should have sold Casemiro in the summer 2024 window instead of keeping him around to cost the team games for yet another season, as his sharp decline was evident in a beyond awful 2023/24 campaign. Casemiro went from being a key veteran leader and a solid Premier League midfielder in 2022/23 to a joke in 2023...

The 3 worst contracts Arsenal must get rid of in the summer 2025 transfer window

Here are three contracts Arsenal will want to get off their wage bill in the summer 2025 transfer window. All salary details are courtesy of FBRef.com. DM Thomas Partey Thomas Partey will be a free agent at the end of the 2024/25 season, and it's time that Arsenal moved on from the veteran defensive midfielder instead of giving him a raise. The 31-year-old is quietly on the decline, but he was never more than an average starter to begin with. And at 10.4 million pounds, Thomas makes considerably more money than he's worth to the Gunners when his main assets are al traits the club could easily find elsewhere for cheaper. Thomas is a good defender who can complete simple passes, and those kinds of players are a dime in a dozen and usually earn half that amount of money. Arsenal can l...

The 3 worst contracts Liverpool must get rid of in summer 2025 transfer window

Here are three players Liverpool must get rid of in the summer 2025 transfer market in order to save money on their wages. All salary information is based on figures supplied by FBRef.com. ST Darwin Nunez It's time for Liverpool to move on from Darwin Nunez. While the Uruguayan striker isn't quite as bad as many fans will have you think and deserves a lot more credit for the chances he can create, Liverpool need a striker who is capable of being relied upon as a goal-scorer. Nunez's xG underperformance of nearly eight goals in the previous two Premier League seasons isn't simply down to bad luck; it's just how he is. He is responsible for some of the most laughable gaffes in front of goal in European football these last two seasons, and, as a striker, the work he does off the ball can...

Three summer 2025 transfers to take Chelsea to the next level

If Chelsea want to take their squad to the next level, here are three stars they need to go after in the summer 2025 transfer window. RB Leipzig ST Benjamin Sesko Chelsea have unearthed one of the better strikers in the Premier League in Nicolas Jackson, who has significantly improved his goal-scoring touch in his second season at Stamford Bridge since signing from Villarreal. But if Jackson is one of the top strikers in the Premier League by comparison, that doesn't mean Chelsea should still stand pat, because a lot of that is down to the fact that most of the other big clubs in England - Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, and Tottenham - are all lacking a great striker. Because Jackson is at least decent, Chelsea don't need to break the bank on, say, Newcastle star Alexander ...

Three summer 2025 transfers to take Arsenal to the next level

Here are three players Arsenal must target in the summer 2025 transfer window if they want to reach the next level. Atalanta ST Mateo Retegui Everyone knows that Arsenal need a new striker in the summer 2025 transfer window, and after balking on signing a new No. 9 last summer, Mikel Arteta and friends are paying dearly for their lack of ambition by falling out of the title race entirely in 2024/25, especially amidst Bukayo Saka's hamstring injury. From Viktor Gyokers and Benjamin Sesko to Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak, Arsenal have been linked to everyone under the sun, no pun intended, ahead of the summer market. But one name that should get mentioned more often is the free-scoring Italian international Mateo Retegui, who has been wanted by virtually everyone in Serie A but has...

Three summer 2025 transfers to take Liverpool to the next level

Here are three players Liverpool need to sign in the summer 2025 transfer window in order to take their squad to the next level. Eintracht Frankfurt ST Hugo Ekitike I've been a big fan of Hugo Ekitike's since he was a little-known prospect shining at Reims, and as he himself admits, he never should have made the jump to Ligue 1 giants PSG. Since "falling back down" to Eintracht Frankfurt, Ekitike has reestablished himself as one of the best young players in European football and reached new heights in the Bundesliga, and now that Omar Marmoush is balling out for Manchester City, the show is fully Ekitike's to run in Frankfurt. Liverpool are in need of a striker to replace Darwin Nunez - someone who has the all-around ability to create opportunities for others, namely Mohamed Salah,...
