A look at the ins and outs confirmed by Arsenal as the summer transfer window opens
The summer transfer window officially opens on Monday, June 15 and Arsenal have already carried out some business.
The Gunners won the Premier League for the first time in 22 years in May, finishing seven points clear of second-placed Manchester City. Mikel Arteta will want to retain the crown in the 2026/27 season and also continue to challenge in the UEFA Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup.
In order to compete on all four fronts, the Gunners cannot stand still and co-chairman Josh Kroenke knows this better than anyone. “In our experience of winning things in the States, when you win something, the sun’s still going to come up the next day,” the American said after Arsenal won the Premier League.

“You’ve got to get back to work and there are many teams trying to gain on you, including some historically great ones around the Premier League. We’re going to look to strengthen because we know teams around us are going to get better. If you’re not trying to continually evolve and improve, you’re standing still.”
Andrea Berta, Arteta and the ownership team have already held discussions over incomings and outgoings. This summer’s World Cup may complicate matters somewhat but the main ambition is to have improved the squad by the time the transfer window slams shut on Monday, August 31.
With that said, football.london takes a closer look at all the transfers completed by Arsenal so far this summer.
