Arsenal must use the summer transfer window to strengthen Mikel Arteta's squad to end their wait to win the Premier League title following three failed attempts.
Manchester City and Liverpool have pipped the Gunners to domestic success in the last three campaigns, with Arteta likely seeing a fourth consecutive second-placed finish as unacceptable and bringing in new players will be key to avoiding that.
Despite holding talks for numerous signings, Kepa Arrizabalaga is the only confirmed arrival thus far ahead of next season. Plenty more are expected however, with signing an attacking midfielder, wide forward and striker on Andrea Berta's list of tasks to complete.
With all of that being said, football.london has taken a look at the deals Arsenal could complete, looking at the latest odds from Bet365.
Rodrygo
Considering how important he has been for Real Madrid over the last few years, it is certainly interesting to see Rodrygo being strongly linked with an exit from the club.
Having played just 88 minutes across four Club World Cup fixtures, it certainly appears as though Xabi Alonso favours other attackers. As a result, Arsenal are 4/5 favourites via Bet365 to sign him.
The odds on him still being a Real player on Monday, September 1 are 15/8.
football.london writer Tom Coley says: This deal seems like a bit of a no-brainer for Arsenal with the Brazil international capable of completely changing the dynamic of their attack. He has suffered some fitness issues as of late but at his very best, there aren't too many more complete wingers. Across 53 appearances during the 2024/25 season, he managed 14 goals and 11 assists.
If he does come in, Gabriel Martinelli's place in the starting XI will be uncertain with it likely his compatriot takes the spot. Interest from Saudi Arabia in the Gunners man also means an exit cannot be ruled out.
Eberechi Eze
Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze has just enjoyed a sensational last few months and therefore it is no surprise transfer interest from Arsenal has arrived.
For the majority of the summer window it looked more likely that he would be joining Tottenham but now a move to the Gunners is a real possibility. Following a meeting this past weekend and talks continuing into July, Bet365 have priced Arsenal are favourites to have Eze on their books by the end of the window at odds of 2/7.
football.london writer Tom Coley says: Yet again this feels like a transfer that can take Arsenal to the next level and simply has to be formally pursued. His £68 million release clause potentially being available in instalments also means it is affordable on top of other big-money moves. The 27-year-old also has plenty of Premier League experience with perhaps the only issue being that if he does want to continue playing in midfield, he may be forced to settle for less minutes.
Viktor Gyokeres
The transfer saga involving Viktor Gyokeres continues to take multiple twists and turns with the latest claim being that he has agreed personal terms to join Arsenal. With that in mind, it was perhaps no surprise to see a huge change in the odds for him to join the Gunners from Sporting CP.
Not too long ago, a switch to Juventus or Manchester United looked more likely but he is now at just 4/9 on to sign for Arsenal this summer.
football.london writer Tom Coley says: The Benjamin Sesko or Gyokeres decision is a big one that Arsenal must get right.
As things stand, it looks as though he will cost £69m (€80m) whereas RB Leipzig could meet Arsenal in the middle of their respective valuations for Sesko at £64.3m (€75m). As he is considerably younger and thus has a much higher ceiling, there are already incentives to go for the Slovenia international over Gyokeres with the price difference now another.
