Arsenal supporters will be hoping to see the back of the 2024/2025 Premier League season as their woes continued after drawing 1-1 against Everton.
While Arsenal could still potentially win the Champions League, their league campaign has been an utter disappointment as they barely challenged Liverpool for the title a few months ago as well.
Andrea Berta must be racking his brain as to why the Gunners continue to fail in their pursuit to become the champions of England.
Berta’s approach at Arsenal seems proactive considering the number of players his side have been linked with since his arrival at the Emirates Stadium as it seems like his plan is to refresh the squad by signing a few players at the very least.
David Seaman urged Andrea Berta to sign a striker and it seems like that is one of his biggest transfer priorities.
Andrea Berta must sign a superstar forward at Arsenal more than just a striker
Berta aims to sign Viktor Gyokeres for Arsenal as he is looking at a number of centre-forwards who can come in and elevate Mikel Arteta’s side.
Signing for Arsenal appeals to Gyokeres’ representatives as they are aware of how serious their interest is in him.
However, Andrea Berta needs to ensure that Arsenal sign a superstar forward more than a traditional number nine.
Apart from Bukayo Saka, it could be argued that the North Londoners lack a match-winner up top — with Kai Havertz, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard proving they are not world-class attacking players.
Most teams that have won the Premier League title in the past in particular have had at least two game-changers in attack — from Manchester United in 2008 when Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo were running riot to Manchester City last season when Phil Foden and Erling Haaland stepped up to the plate.
Arsenal, however have only one in Saka and it is up to Andrea Berta to change that — whether that is by signing a world-class left-winger, an elite attacking midfielder or just a ruthless finisher up front.
Mikel Arteta has mostly done his bit by building a tactical setup that yields results.
But once Arteta’s system does not work on a particular day, it takes players with a degree of X-factor in the final third to turn potential draws or losses to wins — as both Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp often used to and bail Arsene Wenger out in certain games.
What Andrea Berta privately told Nico Williams as Gunners plot big move
Andrea Berta spoke to Nico Williams — a player he is keen to sign for Arsenal and the Spanish international has already proven he could be football’s next best thing.
Berta believes Williams is excited about his side’s project after speaking to him about his thoughts on a potential move to the Emirates Stadium while telling him the role he could play in Mikel Arteta’s side and promising the tricky winger that he will play a crucial role for them. The 22-year-old did mention, however that he is yet to decide his future.
