Alan Shearer says Arsenal must make major moves in the transfer market this summer if they want to win the Premier League title, with Aston Villa forward Morgan Rogers among their targets.

Arsenal has made Villa forward Morgan Rogers its primary transfer target this summer, as manager Arteta looks to strengthen the attack ahead of the new season. Beyond confirming the permanent transfer of Hincapié and the arrival of Meslier, the Gunners are also pushing for a deal for Club Brugge winger Christos Tzolis, marking a significant squad overhaul.

Shearer said: "Arsenal has to make major moves in the transfer market. As champions, you have to sign two or three big players because you need to inject fresh blood and stay sharp. Look at where the team is and everything else—last season was the perfect moment. So I'm not surprised, and I think they will continue to operate, with at least one or possibly two major signings to be completed."

"I think the chasing pack will have a chance to catch them next season, yes, because other teams will do the same in the transfer window. Manchester City will do it, Liverpool will do it. Manchester United is also pushing hard. So other teams will spend big money too. Now that the World Cup is over, you'll see many deals starting to happen."

"I think Arsenal has to make signings. Looking at the Sir Alex Ferguson era and the Pep Guardiola era, the best time to make signings is when you're strong—you have to do it to keep the hunger in the team."

The signings of Tzolis and Rogers would further strengthen Arsenal's already formidable attack, which would strike fear into opponents next season, and the north London club is seen as favorites to win the title again.
