Arsenal are making some strong moves in the transfer window this summer, and Mikel Arteta has no plans to slow down yet.
Viktor Gyokeres is set to sign for Arsenal, with a deal close to being finalised between the Gunners and Sporting CP for the striker.
Noni Madueke and Cristhian Mosquera are also expected to join the Swede in arriving at the Emirates Stadium this week, in a flurry of activity.
But Andrea Berta wants more, there is another attacker who he considers the missing piece from Arteta’s team.

Mikel Arteta thinks Eberechi Eze the ‘final piece of the puzzle’ at Arsenal
Mikel Arteta believes that Eberechi Eze is the ‘final piece of the puzzle’ of his Arsenal team, according to Sun Sport.
The Spaniard thinks that the Crystal Palace star could be the player who helps complete his new-look Gunners team that could finally win the Premier League.
Eze, who has been dubbed ‘unbelievable’, has strong interest from elsewhere, as Bayern Munich remain keen on the 27-year-old.
Jamal Musiala’s ankle injury has meant that the Bavarians are on the hunt for an attacker this summer, and the England international is high on their list.
Eze has a £60m release clause, although Palace are open to it being paid in instalments, as TBR Football has revealed.
The Gunners could need to start selling players before they look to bring in the former Queens Park Rangers talent.
Leandro Trossard wants to leave Arsenal this summer, TBR Football exclusively reported on Monday, which could free up space for Eze.
Viktor Gyokeres will love Arsenal’s creative options if Eberechi Eze signs
Gyokeres will be arriving in London, licking his lips at the prospect of linking up with some of Arsenal’s best creative players.
Adding a player like Eze to the mix will make the prospect even more exciting, given how good the England ace was last term.

Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice all ranked in the top 20 for most chances created in the Premier League last season.
Eze created 59 chances, which ranked him ninth in the Premier League, so playing with a talent like that should have Gyokeres buzzing.
