But I can\u2019t give that too much consideration given we\u2019ve got a Champions League final and a World Cup coming up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll start to think about those things nearer the time and do they need another centre forward as back-up to Viktor Gyokeres? Do they need another central midfielder in case Declan Rice or Martin Zubimendi aren\u2019t quite there?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s probably a couple of positions that Arsenal will still want to think about but they\u2019ve got a lot of strength in that squad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ: Arteta reveals two \u2018moments\u2019 he knew Arsenal would win PL title as \u2018turning point\u2019 in season identified<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Arsenal are already favourites with the bookmakers to retain their crown next season and Ian Wright hopes they can capitalise on their success this term.<\/p>\n<p>Wright said on <em>Sky Sports<\/em>: \u201cYou hope this could be the start of something for Arsenal.
