According to Tribal Football [via the Telegraph] Wenger has presented Gazidis with a wishlist of five players that he wants Arsenal to sign this summer in order to really compete in the league next season.
Said list apparently consists of Kylian Mbappe, Alexandre Lacazette, and Thomas Lemar, who most will already be aware of, as well as RB Leipzig’s Emil Forsberg and Nice midfielder Jean Seri.

Arsenal have been linked with the 26-year-old Lyon striker since last summer when they had a bid of just over £30m rejected.
This year, the Gunners appear to be serious about signing the France international, who scored 37 goals in 45 appearances (all comps) last season, and are willing to fork out £60m, including add-ons.
