Arsenal look set to fund another big summer of spending as departures for three first team players edge closer to completion.
Arsenal continued their meteoric rise under Mikel Arteta this summer with a £200 million haul of Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber, helping them close the gap to Manchester City to just two points by the end of the season.
With a title now in their grasp, the Gunners are widely expected to further bolster their ranks this summer, with an elite striker thought to be top of the shortlist.

According to TEAMtalk, Saudi Arabian clubs are beginning to close in on midfielder Thomas Partey, who has fallen out of favour at the Emirates following Declan Rice’s arrival.
The Ghanian could command a fee of up to £25 million this summer as Arsenal look to shift his estimated £200,000 per week wage from the books.
Once a key player for Arteta, injuries and refining of tactical direction have forced Partey down the pecking order, making just 16 appearances in all competitions this season.
