Paul Merson has identified one key figure he believes Arsenal should sign to elevate themselves.
The Gunners icon believes the team is yet to reach the next step of excellence under Mikel Arteta.
They could win their first title in 20 years against Everton tomorrow, but will rely on a better result from Manchester City against West Ham.
The player called Merson comes from an ambitious Premier League team threatened by the impending demand to sell a top star.
Several stars have been linked with moves and Merson is encouraging Arsenal to join his Sportkeeda column.

The player in question is Anthony Gordon, who could cost them around £100 million
The player in question is Newcastle’s Alexander Isak.
Eddie Howe said last month that Toon has no intention of selling their star striker.
However, Arsenal have reportedly considered bidding somewhere in the region of £100m for his services.
Isak is having an excellent season, scoring 24 goals in all competitions.
Newcastle want to keep their stars, but CEO Darren Eales warned earlier this season that fans could expect a big departure.

The Magpies are expected to offload at least one key player this summer to comply with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules.
Anthony Gordon, Bruno Guimaraes and Sean Longstaff are all involved in the conversation alongside Isak.
