**Arsenal**has already started to make plans for the upcoming transfer window. They have set their charts steady to boost their chances of winning titles this season. Mikel Arteta has started to make decisions to help the team this campaign.
The Gunners have had a good start to their 2024-2025 campaign. They currently sit in the 4th position of the Premier League table. They are also on a decent journey in their Champions League campaign where they sit in the 7th position with 10 points.
Arsenal need to saddle up and build another winning streak this season. The league is already midway and the competition is getting tougher. Mikel Arteta’s side must play their next match with confidence to secure a victory. They are 9 points trailing behind the table toppers Liverpool.
A tricky fixture is lined up for the Gunners as they face West Ham next at the Lonon stadium. The Hammers will be at an advantage as they play at home. If the North London Giants acquire full three points it will be a major confidence boost.
They did face some setbacks this season as some underdogs defeated the Gunners this campaign. Bouremouth and Newcastle United are two teams who defeated Arsenal which was a shock to many.
One thing that has pricked the North London giants this season are their injury concerns. The reports state that there are plenty of players who are linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium. It is now coming to light that Arsenal is not very keen on making big transfer decisions in January.
Arsenal edge ahead for Viktor Gyokeres
The Gunners are likely to face less competition for their next target Viktor Gyokeres in the next transfer window. The interested clubs are actively looking for other choices mainly due to Viktor’s enormous 58 million transfer fee.
It is still unclear if Arsenal will sign the Swedish striker in early 2025. Gyokeres who has been on a terrific form for both club and nation has been on the radar for many clubs. Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool have been keeping a close eye on the striker according to Football. london.
There is a new potential alternative that has attracted the attention of the above-mentioned clubs. Liam Delap is the suitor who is the new talk of the town. Delap has been a prolific striker for Ipswich Town bagging 6 goals in 12 games this season.
Arsenal has taken a new route and has no plans of spending big in January. Viktor Gyokeres is still their primary target but they will delay this signing. They will wait till the end of the season to bring Gyokeres to the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners seek victory against West Ham
Arsenal will be confident in securing three points against West Ham this weekend. Mikel Arteta’s men will not hold back to play their form of football against Julen Lopetegui’s side. They surely will fight their way to victory in this away fixture.
