Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has been backed with a sizeable transfer kitty for the summer as he looks to turn his squad into genuine title challengers next season.

  • The Gunners have often deceived in the title race with the club failing to register valuable wins over their direct competitors.

    As a result, the north London club have had to regularly contend with Champions League football until last season where they finished a lowly fifth under the French head coach.

    According to The Mail, the long-standing manager will have a £150m kitty as his disposal this summer as he aims to make a couple of marquee signings to his squad.

    The attacking department appears to be the main focus for the 67-year-old with Riyad Mahrez and Kylian Mbappe among the top names on his shortlist.

    Meanwhile, the club are also looking at the prospect of deals for Kingsley Coman and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, both of whom could leave their respective clubs in the Bundesliga this summer.

    Arsenal have already pursued the signature of Schalke's Sead Kolasinac on a Bosman, and they appear to be closing in on a second signing after having tabled a fee for KAS Eupen forward Henry Onyekuru.
