to-do list?
Arsenal have confirmed the appointment of Andrea Berta as their new sporting director, so what’s on the former Atletico Madrid chief’s agenda at the Emirates Stadium?
Sign a forward (at least one!)
Berta’s most pressing task will be to strengthen Arsenal’s attack. Their injuries this season have exposed a lack of depth in their forward line. The need for more firepower is clear.
Kai Havertz was on track for the highest-scoring season of his career before his knee injury but Arsenal have become too dependent on him. Having sold Eddie Nketiah without replacing him last summer, and having lost Gabriel Jesus to a knee injury too, they are light on numbers as well as killer quality.
Can Berta help Arsenal broker a deal for one of their top targets? Alexander Isak reportedly figures highly on the club’s shortlist and there has also been interest in RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko. The Gunners can’t afford to draw another blank this summer.
Tie stars to new deals
It’s not just about getting players through the door at Arsenal with key figures like Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes and Gabriel Martinelli all entering the final two years of their contracts this summer.
The north London will also want to tie down youngsters Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri after their stunning breakthrough seasons at the Emirates, while they will have to decided what to do with midfielders Thomas Partey and Jorginho as their contracts expire in the summer.
Securing the futures of key players will be of high importance for Berta and Arsenal so that Mikel Arteta can continue to build on the foundations built ooking into the possibility of buying a controlling stake in Spanish club Malaga, according to The Mirror.
The report says FSG have been looking for a European club to add to their portfolio as part of a multi-club model, with Malaga emerging as a viable option.
Liverpool’s owners previously considered investing in French side Bordeaux, but pulled out due to the high costs associated with the stadium and the gloomy economic outlook in French football.
FSG have reportedly been looking at other clubs in Portugal and Belgium, but Malaga is now the main focus after doing due diligence and site visto-do list?
