Mikel Arteta Confirms Current Transfer Happenings Is Strange In The EPL

The manager of Arsenal, Mikel Arteta, claims that the level of transfer activity already seen in the Premier League is unprecedented.

Speaking before of Saturday’s match against Fulham, Arteta admitted that despite the signings, clubs’ levels have increased, making it more difficult for his team to win.

“This is something I haven’t seen in this league if you look at the players who are coming, the money spent, the caliber of the squad, and what they are bringing. That was evident yesterday with the transfers, and I believe it will have a significant impact.

“Last year, the leagues established the highest-ever record in terms of performances. When you look at the points you need to achieve certain things it’s never happened before. The level has raised so much for every team in this league and you can already see that in these first few games with surprises and results.

Meanwhile, Arteta said he is positive that he now has a team that can play in the Europa League and Premier League.

He said “The record in terms of performances that the leagues have produced last year, it’s the highest ever. When you look at the points you need to achieve certain things it’s never happened before. The level has raised so much for every team in this league and you can already see that in these first few games with surprises and results.”
