Arsenal transfer news
The Gunners are about to play Aston Villa in the FA Cup final for their last game of the 2014/15 season, with fans hoping for more silverware after winning the same competition last year.
Still, many feel the club also needs to be doing better in the Premier League and Champions League, meaning Wenger remains under some pressure to spend big on several news signings in key positions.
According to latest reports, these are the three players being lined up for moves:
1) Petr Cech (Chelsea)
In a £10m move, Arsenal are being tipped to capitalise on Petr Cech’s desire to leave Chelsea for first-team football. The Czech Republic international has fallen behind Thibaut Courtois in the pecking order this season, but would certainly make a great signing for the Gunners as an upgrade on Wojciech Szczesny or David Ospina.

2) Morgan Schneiderlin (Southampton)
One of the best midfielders in the Premier League this season, Southampton star Morgan Schneiderlin looks exactly what Arsenal need in the middle of the park, and he supposedly wants out of the St Mary’s Stadium. The French international has previously been valued at around £25m.
3) Arturo Vidal (Juventus)
Finally, another £25m could go on signing Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal, who has been strongly linked with a move to Arsenal in recent weeks. The Chilean international may be brought in to play further forward in midfield if Schneiderlin is also a target, in what would be an intriguing move for the north London giants.
