‘You have to be the best in the market’ - Arteta sends demanding message to Arsenal board
The Gunners fell short in the Premier League title race for the third season in a row, coming second in the table behind Liverpool.
The disappointment has left fans in disarray, leaving them asking for a massive recruitment in the summer transfer window.
Arteta will need to reinforce his attack in the summer and hope his players stay off from injury to compete for next season's EPL title.
Arteta speaks on transfer
Arteta has revealed what the club needs to do if they are to go all the way to win a major trophy next season.
According to Fabrizio on X, Arteta said, “If you want to win major trophies, you have to be the best in the market. The teams that win have the best players, always, at this level.”

Arsenal have failed to win a trophy for the last five years, with their last trophy being the FA Cup in 2020.
The last three years have seen a lot of improvement from the team, having finished second for the third time in a row.
Following their failure to win any trophy this season, Arteta has asked for new signings to improve his squad ahead of next season.
The Gunners have already agreed a deal for Spanish midfielder Martín Zubimendi and are also discussing a move for Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyökeres.
Arsenal are making plans for next season and are bringing in new attacking players to spice up their attack.
