Arsenal are monitoring multiple elite targets, including Julian Alvarez, Bruno Guimaraes, Ezri Konsa, and Scott. The Gunners also face important decisions over the futures of Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, and young talent Ethan Nwaneri.

Chelsea could be equally active. The Blues are willing to listen to offers for Alejandro Garnacho and Nicolas Jackson, while midfielder Enzo Fernandez continues to attract transfer speculation despite manager Xabi Alonso's desire to keep him.

World Cup stars driving the market

Several players who impressed in North America have become some of the hottest names on the market.
