  "textContent": "Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal lost the Champions League final (Picture: Getty)\n\nArsenal are open to offers for at least four title winners as they look to revamp Mikel Arteta’s squad during the summer transfer window.\n\nDecision-makers at the Emirates Stadium have turned their attentions to the transfer market after a mixed end to the season.\n\nArteta successfully guided Arsenal to their first Premier League title since 2004, finishing seven points above Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.\n\nArsenal were dreaming of a stunning double ahead of their Champions League final against PSG but suffered a heartbreaking defeat on penalties.\n\n##  The countdown is on\n\nOur seven-day guide to the World Cup is live. 48 teams, 104 games, 1104 players – we've got everything you need to know. Sign up now.\n\nThe Arsenal squad was crestfallen after the painful loss in Budapest but lifted their spirits with a Premier League trophy parade in north London on Sunday.\n\nNow the 2025-26 season has been put to bed, Arsenal will fully focus on the summer transfer window and a chance to bolster Arteta’s squad even further.\n\nAt least four new signings are expected to arrive at the Emirates Stadium, with Arteta keen to welcome a new striker, left-winger, central midfielder and right-back to the club.\n\nBen White holding the Premier League trophy (Picture: Getty)\n\nSeveral current players are also being linked with moves away from Arsenal and the Daily Mail say Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus and Ben White could all leave.\n\nMartinelli is Arsenal’s longest-serving player, having made 278 appearances for the Gunners since his first-team debut in 2019.\n\nThe Brazilian was mainly a back-up player this season, however, and started just 11 Premier League games.\n\nGabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus could both leave Arsenal (Picture: Getty)\n\nTrossard enjoyed a better campaign but a number of pundits still believe a new left-winger should be signed, with PSG’s Bradley Barcola a possible target.\n\nEngland international White only started to feature regularly this season after Jurrien Timber’s injury and suffered a setback himself that ruled him out of the final few weeks of the campaign and this summer’s World Cup.\n\nJesus, meanwhile, has slipped down the pecking order at Arsenal following his persistent injury issues and his game-time will only reduce if the club do bring in a new striker.\n\nTo view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tvideo\n\nUp Next\n\nPrevious Page\n\nNext Page\n\nPiero Hincapie, who started the Champions League final, has emerged as a target for Barcelona but Arsenal will likely rebuff approaches for the defender.\n\nArsenal signed Hincapie from Bayer Leverkusen last summer on an initial loan but have the option to make the deal permanent and are expected to do so.\n\nDiscussing Arsenal’s transfer plans after the Gunners were crowned Premier League champions, Josh Kroenke said: ‘The business never stops. Right now there are already other teams who are trying to strengthen and come at us for next season.\n\n‘We need to be aware of that. We’ve already had a few different conversations about different areas where we think we can improve on and off the pitch.\n\n‘I am looking forward to getting that going this summer but it’s going to be an interesting one because of the World Cup but fortunately everyone is coming to the United States so I don’t have to travel.’\n\nArsenal’s targets ahead of the summer transfer window include Julian Alvarez, Morgan Rogers and Eli Junior Kroupi.\n\n**For more stories like this, check our sport page**.\n\n**Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on**Facebook,** Twitter and Instagram**.\n\nComment now Comments \nAdd Metro as a Preferred Source on Google\nAdd as preferred source\n",
