Arsenal is poised for a bustling summer transfer window, having already secured a key victory in the transfer market.

Arsenal are gearing up for an eventful summer with several potential departures and exciting new arrivals on the horizon. A number of fringe players are likely to be offloaded, including some from the academy ranks.

The sale of these young talents would provide a significant boost to Arsenal's Financial Fair Play standing, freeing up resources for incoming transfers. Additionally, Mikel Arteta has taken steps towards securing the club's future by securing a contract extension for Jorginho.

The Italian midfielder was set to become a free agent this summer, but his short-term deal has resolved one transfer uncertainty. Arsenal reportedly faced competition from other clubs before finalising the agreement with the 32-year-old.

Focus on youth recruitment

As part of their summer strategy, Arsenal are aiming to enhance their academy setup, as outlined by The Athletic. Concerned about falling behind rival academies, the club may target young talents who can be developed within their system.

Players like Eddie Nketiah, Emile Smith Rowe, and Reiss Nelson, graduates of the academy, are expected to be sold this summer due to limited playing time. However, Bukayo Saka, one of the academy's standout success stories, remains firmly in Arsenal's plans.

Arteta is likely banking on academy improvements to generate more first-team regulars who can contribute over the long term, akin to recent successes at Liverpool and Manchester United.

Jorginho resists foreign interest

According to The Guardian, Jorginho attracted interest from Serie A clubs before deciding to extend his stay at Arsenal. Despite being eligible to negotiate with other clubs since January, the midfielder's agent had hinted at a potential return to Italy in March.

However, Arsenal were eager to secure his services. Jorginho has featured in 35 matches this season but started only 19 of them.

Looking ahead, Arsenal are expected to pursue a new midfielder this summer to complement Declan Rice and captain Martin Odegaard, particularly with Thomas Partey possibly departing. Newcastle's Bruno Guimaraes and Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi have emerged as potential targets.
