"Arsenal are hot on the tail of a starlet compared to Pedri. Having showcased the young talent they have in their ranks at the weekend as Arsenal became the first club to field two players aged 16 or younger in an XI, beating Mansfield Town 2-1 in the FA Cup fifth round it appears the North Londoners are making youth a keen focus going forward."
"Arsenal won't be looking to make as many signings as they did last summer eight but will be focusing on bringing in young talents to compete for places at right-back and in midfield. Ben White has struggled with injury once again this season to leave Jurrien Timber as an almost ever-present."
"The Gunners remain keen on bringing in Ayoub Bouaddi, hailed as Ligue 1's next big thing though links with Crvena Zvezda technician Vasilije Kostov continue to surface. Sport Witness have relayed reports from Mozzart Sport in Serbia that cover the Gunners' place in a race for the teen's signature alongside Inter Milan and Marseille, with the claim made that a 20 million bid has already been lodged."
Arsenal is shifting focus toward youth recruitment as part of their summer transfer strategy. After fielding two players aged 16 or younger against Mansfield Town, the club demonstrates commitment to developing young talent. Manager Mikel Arteta plans fewer signings than last summer's eight acquisitions, instead targeting young players for right-back and midfield positions. Injuries to Ben White have highlighted the need for defensive depth, while Christian Norgaard has struggled for playing time. Arsenal actively pursues Serbian midfielder Vasilije Kostov, compared to Barcelona's Pedri, alongside French prospect Ayoub Bouaddi. Reports indicate a £20 million bid for Kostov, with competition from Inter Milan and Marseille.
