Wenger says he will buy three players this summer

Arsenal fans should expect additional two or three new faces at the Emitates Stadium this summer.

This is even as Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has said he is not ready to upset the balance of his squad and will also buy two or three players this summer.

The Gunners boss has already bought Granit Xhaka from Borussia Mochengladbach this summer and had also activated the release of Leicester City’s Jamie Vardy, although the striker is yet to make up his mind.

When asked about his transfer plans, the longest serving manager in England said he was not going to overhaul his squad.

“We’ve already bought one player – Granit Xhaka – from Monchengladbach, because we’ve lost three players. We’ve lost (Mikel) Arteta, we’ve lost (Tomas) Rosicky and (Mathieu) Flamini,” Wenger told Tencent Sports.

“So we’ve bought one midfielder and we’re still in the market to buy one or two more players.

“But it is not easy. It is not just buying. We also have to keep a good balance. If you buy too many players you destabilise your team. So three is the maximum,” he said.
