Arsenal unlikely to sign new attacker before summer transfer deadline

Arsenal are expected to conclude their summer transfer window without signing an additional forward despite ongoing efforts to bolster the squad. While the club successfully added Christos Tzolis, Bruno Guimaraes, Ezri Konsa, and Illan Meslier to the first-team roster, management remains concerned about depth on the left wing. Recent departures including Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard have altered the team's attacking profile, leaving a void that the club attempted to fill through pursuits of players like Morgan Rogers and Vinicius Junior. Manager Mikel Arteta indicated the club would continue to evaluate options until the final moments of the window. However, high-profile signings remain difficult to finalize as the deadline approaches due to the complexities of negotiating with selling clubs. The front office continues to prioritize long-term tactical balance over last-minute, high-volume activity.
