Piers Morgan reveals five-man transfer shortlist to win Arsenal the title next season
Piers Morgan reveals his five-man transfer list to give Arsenal the title next season – including Declan Rice, two Brighton stars, a Napoli title winner and a Serie A goal machine
Piers Morgan has named his ideal five-man transfer list to propel Arsenal to the Premier League title next season.
The Gunners appear to have fallen short this campaign by losing 3-0 at home to Brighton on Sunday, seemingly ending their battle for the championship.
Leaders Manchester City are four points ahead of Mikel Arteta’s men who have played a game less and are now big favorites to keep the trophy.
TV presenter and Arsenal fan Morgan has stressed on social media that his team have ‘bottled it’ and now need five players to launch a serious title bid in 2023/24.
And he again took to Twitter to reveal the five players he believes could help Arteta and Co win the title next season – including a West Ham star and two Brighton players.

He also picked two Serie A title-winning Napoli stars to improve the Gunners’ XI
The first – and least surprising name – is West Ham midfielder Declan Rice. Mail sports revealed in January that Rice is the main target for the north London club, with boss Arteta looking to strengthen the heart of his midfield.
Arsenal are ready to offer the Hammers £90 million to sign their captain this summer and are preparing a £300,000 a week deal to bring in the England star as they look to sack midfielder Granit Xhaka.
Morgan also named two players from Roberto De Zerbi’s Seagulls, who comfortably beat Arsenal at the Emirates this weekend.
He nominated midfielder Moises Caicedo – who impressed as a right back on Sunday – and left winger Kaoru Mitoma.

Ecuadorian midfielder Caicedo would strengthen their midfield ranks and provide increased coverage for Ben White, while Mitoma would provide top-notch coverage and competition for wideman Gabriel Martinelli.
Morgan then labeled Napoli center half Kim Min-jae, who has won the Serie A title this season. Arsenal have struggled lately without the injured William Saliba, with replacements Rob Holding struggling and Jakub Kiwior inexperienced.
Also nominated was Kim’s teammate Victor Osimhen, who has scored 28 goals in all competitions this season for Luciano Spalletti’s Scudetto winners.
He would be happy with either Osimhen or Dusan Vlahovic from Juventus, who could potentially score more goals than Gabriel Jesus’ current back-up Eddie Nketiah.
