Mikel Arteta has said Arsenal have brought in ‘new energy’ with the club’s summer signings.
Arsenal have been active in the summer transfer window with deals completed for Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard and Noni Madueke.
New season. New energy.
— Arsenal (@Arsenal) July 21, 2025
Further incomings are imminent, with transfers agreed for Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera and Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres. After three consecutive seasons as Premier League runners-up, Arteta is confident that the new arrivals can lift the level of his squad.
Speaking ahead of the club’s pre-season tour of Asia, Arteta said the recruits have brought a ‘new energy’ to the North Londoners.
“It’s like shaking the tree again and bringing new faces,” he said at a press conference.
“They bring new excitement, a new energy as well. We signed very important players as well. Again, everybody feels like their height has to go to a different level, and that’s what we’re seeking.
“Ideally, you want it (transfers) done on day one in pre-season. We’ve done very, very well so far. I’m very pleased with the way the club is supporting the necessities and improvements that we required in the team.
“Andrea (Berta) and the team have done an excellent job as well, trying to push everything forward. There’s still a long time to go in that window. We have a lot of hopes that we can still improve the team. We’re going to continue to try to do that.”
Arsenal face AC Milan in Singapore on Wednesday, before clashes with Newcastle and Tottenham in the Far East. The Spaniard said his side have been delighted by their welcome in Asia.
“We are super excited to be here,” he said
“It’s been an incredible welcome from our supporters here, they are so passionate. We are adapting as well to the context, the weather, we weren’t able to train this morning, so we have to adapt to those situations as well.”
