Arsenal transfer news: How Gunners could look next season without Lacazette and Ozil – but with Ziyech and Zaha
Arsenal manager Unai Emery must somehow find a way to significantly improve his side with a reported 40million budget this summer.The Gunners have been linked with a host of potential signings, with Ajax star Hakim Ziyech the latest name to emerge.GETTY4

Hakim Ziyech starred for Ajax in their Champions League run

The 26-year-old, who was named the Dutch club’s Player of the Year after grabbing 21 goals and 24 assists, has previously said it would be a ‘dream’ to play for Arsenal.Ziyech is free to leave this summer, according to Ajax sporting director Marc Overmars, and has a release clause of 25million.Other reported targets, albeit far more expensive, are Wilfried Zaha and Nicolas Pepe. Zaha is thought to have told Crystal Palace he wants to play Champions League football next season – and the Gunners could qualify for Europe’s elite club competition with victory over Chelsea in the Europa League final.However, the Eagles want 80million for their talisman, and Lille want a similar amount for Pepe, which is double Arsenal’s transfer budget for the summer.It means Emery must generate transfer funds by offloading some players – and it is understood he is planning a mass overhaul of his squad.Getty4

Wilfried Zaha looks set for the exit at Selhurst Park

Out-of-favour Mesut Ozil would command a significant fee, with French giants Paris Saint-Germain reportedly interested.As would Arsenal Player of the Year Alexandre Lacazette, who Atletico Madrid have made their prime target to replace Antoine Griezmann, with Barcelona also in hot pursuit.Meanwhile, Emery will be desperate to tighten up the club’s shaky defence and AC Milan are willing to take Shkodran Mustafi off his hands.Getty4

William Saliba is highly thought of in France

That could free up some cash for the club to bid 25million for Saint-Etienne defender William Saliba, who has emerged as a potential target.Elsewhere, Arsenal must find a replacement for retiring goalkeeper Petr Cech, with Madrid’s Keylor Navas a possible option to rival Bernd Leno.With all that said, here is how the Gunners could look next season:4Emery’s high-octane philosophy requires blistering pace in attack, which this XI contains in abundance.The likes of Zaha, Ziyech and Pepe would ensure a lightening quick transition from defence to attack, allowing Arsenal to catch teams on the break.Ozil and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, another player who could be sold, often lack the energy levels required for this style of play.In defence, many Gunners fans would be happy to see the back of Mustafi, who was responsible for too many dropped points this season.Saliba, 18, is highly thought of in France – and could thrive alongside his experienced compatriot Laurent Koscielny.
