ARTIFICIAL INTELLEGENCE has drawn up a list of six key signings Arsenal could make this summer.
The Gunners are set to spend big over the next few months in the hope of launching another title charge next season.
They also have Champions League football to contend with.
The Gunners were pipped to the Premier League trophy by Manchester City this season, despite leading the the table for 248 days.
Mikel Arteta will have to introduce several new additions if he wants to compete with Pep Guardiola's side next season.
Here are the six players AI thinks Arsenal could sign this summer in a bid to challenge for the top spot again.

Declan Rice
The 24-year-old midfielder has been Arteta's top transfer target since January.
West Ham have already announced that he will be leaving the club this summer and Sun Sport exclusively revealed earlier this month how officials will demand more than the £106m British record Chelsea paid for Enzo Fernandez.
The Gunners have now had two bids rejected with the deal threatening to drag out.

Manchester City are also understood to be interested, but they are yet to bid due to the midfielder's desire to join Arsenal.

Kai Havertz
Arsenal are also pushing to sign Havertz from Chelsea.
The Gunners reportedly had their opening bid rejected by the Blues last week, but they returned with an improved offer of £60m on Tuesday.
Havertz is understood to be keen on the prospect of a move to Arsenal, with personal terms already agreed.
Arteta believes Havertz will be able to play in any position along Arsenal's front three, as well as in midfield.
Moussa Diaby
The Gunners are reportedly leading Premier League rivals Newcastle and Manchester United in the race to sign Diaby, who recently emerged as a target.
Bayer Leverkusen want around £65m for the winger, but Arsenal could attempt to negotiate a cheaper deal, with Granit Xhaka already set to join the Bundesliga side this summer.
Diaby has scored 14 goals in 48 appearances for the German side across all competitions last season and AI think he could be bringing his talents to the Gunners next term.
Ilkay Gundogan
Fresh from winning the Treble with Man City, Gundogan will become a free agent when his contract expires at the end of this month.
He has been linked with a move to both Arsenal and Barcelona, but the Gunners could have the edge in a transfer race thanks to Arteta's links to City.
The 32-year-old is set to make a decision on his future this week.
Mason Mount
The midfielder emerged as one of Arsenal's summer transfer targets last month, but the Gunners are yet to bid for him.
Mount has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United in recent weeks.
The Red Devils attempted to strike a deal with Chelsea earlier this month by proposing a £40m offer, but the Blues rejected it and demanded £70.
If Man Utd fail to complete a deal for Mount, Arsenal could swoop in. Although the AI, powered by Perlexity, said it was "important to note that these are just rumours and reports".
Dominic Calvert-Lewin
Arsenal expressed an interest in signing Calvert-Lewin earlier this year, but no offer has been made.

Arteta is keen to sign a new striker this summer to play back-up to Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah, with Folarin Balogun expected to leave.
The Spaniard is understood to be an admirer of the Everton star.
