William Gallas is of the opinion that Arsenal must win the Premier League title next season if they manage to sign their number one transfer target this summer.
Former Arsenal defender William Gallas has boldly claimed that the Gunners will have no excuses not to win the Premier League title next season—provided they secure their top transfer target this summer. The Frenchman, known for his outspoken views, believes that Arsenal’s potential acquisition could be the missing piece in their quest for domestic glory.
Arsenal has shown promise under Mikel Arteta, consistently finishing near the top of the table in recent seasons. However, they have struggled to dethrone the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City, often falling short in crucial moments. Injuries to key players like Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, and Kai Havertz have further hampered their campaigns, exposing the need for reinforcements.
Reports suggest that Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak is Arsenal’s primary target. The Swedish striker has been in scintillating form, scoring 19 goals in 25 Premier League games this season. His pace, clinical finishing, and ability to link up with creative midfielders make him an ideal fit for Arteta’s system. However, prying him away from Newcastle could cost Arsenal upwards of £120 million—a fee that would surpass their record signing of Declan Rice.
Gallas is confident that Isak’s arrival would transform Arsenal into genuine title contenders. “If Arsenal make this one signing, they will have no excuses not to win the title,” he told Spin Genie. The former defender emphasized that a world-class striker could solve Arsenal’s long-standing issues in front of goal, turning them into a more consistent and formidable side.

While the prospect of signing, Arsenal faces stiff competition from other top clubs, including Liverpool. Additionally, Newcastle is reportedly reluctant to sell their star player, especially given his importance to their Champions League ambitions.
This summer promises to be pivotal for Arsenal. With Champions League football on the horizon and a strong financial position, the Gunners have the resources to make a statement in the transfer market. Whether they can land their dream signing and finally end their Premier League title drought remains to be seen.
