Arsenal will strengthen its squad before the summer transfer window shuts, manager Mikel Arteta said Saturday, vowing the Premier League champions will not "sit still."
The Gunners have been relatively quiet in the market compared to big-spending rivals Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Chelsea, but the north London side have been linked with moves for Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes and Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior.
While Arteta would not be drawn on Arsenal's reported pursuit of the pair, he told reporters Saturday that the club were determined to "improve and evolve" the squad.
"We expect to have movements in the next few weeks, obviously," the Spaniard added, speaking after a 4-1 preseason win over Girona.
"We want to get better like anybody else and you just can see the transfer market and our opponents, what we are doing. We won't sit still and we are very ambitious with what we are doing," he added.
