Hello and welcome to the football.london blog on Monday!
While Mikel Arteta puts his players through their paces in training this week, he'll be hoping that Andrea Berta is laying the foundations to a busy summer transfer window. The Arsenal boss wanted to welcome some new faces to the Emirates Stadium in January, but his calls for help fell on deaf ears.
As a result, the Gunners crashed out of the Premier League title race. After clambering past Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon, the north Londoners cemented a second-place finish for the third year in a row.
Arteta will be desperate to finally get his hands on the trophy next season, but he'll need to some reinforcements if he wants to snatch Liverpool's crown. Viktor Gyokeres continues to be heavily linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium, while Thomas Partey still faces an uncertain future.
So, with that being said, stay with us at football.london as we bring you all the latest Arsenal news and transfer gossip...
