Bukyao Saka and Ezri Konsa teamed up with England at the World Cup - and are set to do so again at Arsenal Arsenal are not standing still as they look to defend their Premier League title.
布基奥·萨卡和埃兹里·孔萨在世界杯上与英格兰队合作，并将在阿森纳再次合作 阿森纳并没有坐以待毙，他们希望卫冕英超冠军。
The Gunners have spent more than £100m already, bringing in Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle (£75m) and Club Brugge winger Christos Tzolis (£34m) during this transfer window.
枪手已经花费了超过1亿英镑，在这个转会窗口期间从纽卡斯尔引进了布鲁诺·吉马良斯（7500万英镑）和布鲁日俱乐部边锋克里斯托斯·佐利斯（3400万英镑）。
And they are now set to bring in Ezri Konsa from Aston Villa for around £51m.
他们现在准备以 5100 万英镑左右的价格从阿斯顿维拉引进埃兹里·孔萨。
It may seem strange that Arsenal - who have seven senior defenders - want to bring in another established centre-back, but there are reasons why Mikel Arteta has decided to go for the England international.
拥有七名高级后卫的阿森纳想要引进另一名成熟的中后卫，这似乎有些奇怪，但米克尔·阿尔特塔决定引进这位英格兰国脚是有原因的。
Last season, Arsenal's extremely well drilled backline, aided by the effective partnership of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes, helped them win their first title in 22 years.
上赛季，阿森纳训练有素的后防线，在威廉·萨利巴和加布里埃尔·马加拉斯的有效配合下，帮助他们赢得了 22 年来的第一个冠军。
They only conceded 27 league goals. But half of their title-winning defence is not going to be fit for the first part of the season.
他们只丢了27个联赛进球。 但他们夺冠后的一半防守将无法适应本赛季的前半段。
Saliba has been ruled out for an 'extended period' with a long-term back issue which he had been managing last season and which ended his World Cup with France early.
萨利巴因长期背部问题而被排除在“较长一段时间内”，他上赛季一直在处理这种问题，并提前结束了他随法国队的世界杯。
Jurrien Timber, Arsenal's first-choice right-back, is also out for the opening weeks of the season with a groin problem that caused him to pull out of the Netherlands World Cup squad.
阿森纳的首选右后卫尤里恩·蒂伯也因腹股沟问题缺席了本赛季的前几周，这导致他退出了荷兰世界杯的阵容。
That leaves Ben White, who has had his own fitness issues in recent seasons, as Arsenal's only fit right-back and 21-year-old Cristhian Mosquera as the only right sided centre back to partner Gabriel Magalhaes.
这使得近几个赛季出现健康问题的本·怀特成为阿森纳唯一健康的右后卫，而21岁的克里斯蒂安·莫斯克拉则成为唯一与加布里埃尔·马加哈斯搭档的右中卫。
It could be argued that Arsenal, who also made defender Piero Hincapie's loan deal permanent this summer, could be able to cope without signing another defender.
可以说，阿森纳今年夏天也永久租借了后卫皮耶罗·辛卡皮，因此可以在不签下另一名后卫的情况下应对这一情况。
But Arteta does not seem to like fielding two left-footed players at centre-back - which would happen if White got injured and Mosquera had to move to right-back.
但阿尔特塔似乎不喜欢在中后卫位置上派两名左脚球员——如果怀特受伤而莫斯克拉不得不移至右后卫，这种情况就会发生。
Riccardo Calafiori is preferred at left-back by Arteta, because of the unpredictability he brings to the Arsenal attack.
阿尔特塔更喜欢里卡多·卡拉菲奥里担任左后卫，因为他给阿森纳的进攻带来了不可预测性。
Hincapie is left-sided too. Highly rated 16-year-old academy defender Marli Salmon is also on the books but is most likely to be used sparingly in cup competitions as he continues to develop.
欣卡皮也是左撇子。 评价很高的 16 岁青训后卫 Marli Salmon 也在名单上，但随着他的不断发展，他很可能在杯赛中很少使用。
Before Arsenal moved for Konsa, they considered signing Bayer Leverkusen defender Jarell Quansah who can play at right-back and as a right-sided centre-back.
在阿森纳引进康萨之前，他们考虑签下勒沃库森后卫贾雷尔·夸萨，他可以踢右后卫和右中卫。
Konsa, like Guimaraes, is 28 and in the prime of his career.
与吉马良斯一样，孔萨今年 28 岁，正处于职业生涯的黄金时期。
A seasoned international centre-back, he lifted the Europa League with Villa last season. He is one of his country's most reliable performers, starting seven of England's eight games at the World Cup.
作为一名经验丰富的国际中后卫，他上赛季随维拉夺得了欧联杯冠军。 他是英格兰最可靠的球员之一，在世界杯上英格兰队的八场比赛中首发了七场。
His Premier League numbers show why Arsenal were so keen to bring Konsa in.
他的英超数据说明了为什么阿森纳如此热衷于引进康萨。
He was ranked as having the best ground duel success (73.1%) and best passing accuracy (95%) of all defenders in the Premier League last season.
上赛季，他被评为英超所有后卫中地面对抗成功率最高（73.1%）和传球准确率最高（95%）的球员。
His passing accuracy was the best of any player too, while he was also ranked first out of all Premier League outfield players to contest more than 20 ground duels in the league last season.
他的传球准确度也是所有球员中最好的，而上赛季他在联赛中地面对抗次数超过20场的情况也排在所有英超外场球员中的第一位。
He also ranked fifth of all defenders in the league for ball carries of more than five metres - and he carried his passing accuracy into the World Cup, as in his seven starts, he registered a 97% pass completion rate.
他的传球距离超过五米的数据在联盟所有后卫中排名第五——他将自己的传球准确率带入了世界杯，在他的七次首发中，传球成功率达到了 97%。
Many Arsenal fans are wondering if Konsa will play regularly when Saliba and Gabriel are fit.
许多阿森纳球迷想知道，当萨利巴和加布里埃尔恢复健康时，孔萨是否会定期参加比赛。
Arteta's first-choice backline of Timber, Saliba, Gabriel and Calafiori appears hard to break into, on paper.
阿尔特塔的首选后防线由蒂姆伯、萨利巴、加布里埃尔和卡拉菲奥里组成，从纸面上看似乎很难突破。
But the Gunners played 63 games in all competitions as they won the title, reached the final of the Champions League, the final of the Carabao Cup and the quarter-final of the FA Cup.
但枪手在各项赛事中踢了63场比赛，赢得了冠军，进入了欧冠决赛、卡拉宝杯决赛和足总杯四分之一决赛。
Arsenal were plagued by injuries during the campaign and Arteta is trying to avoid those issues this time.
阿森纳在赛季中饱受伤病困扰，而阿尔特塔这次试图避免这些问题。
In the aftermath of the Champions League final, Arteta was quick to say that the Gunners need to be "very ambitious, very fast, and very smart" to build on their Premier League win.
欧冠决赛结束后，阿尔特塔很快表示，枪手需要“非常雄心勃勃、非常快速、非常聪明”才能在英超联赛的胜利基础上再接再厉。
Arsenal spent £250m last summer.
阿森纳去年夏天花费了2.5亿英镑。
The arrival of Konsa will take this summer's outlay to over £150m. Arteta has some of the best depth of quality in Europe to call on, in a squad worth £1.19bn according to Transfermarkt.
康萨的到来将使今年夏天的支出超过 1.5 亿英镑。 根据 Transfermarkt 的数据，阿尔特塔拥有欧洲最优秀的阵容，其阵容价值 11.9 亿英镑。
When asked about the perfect number of players in his squad, Arteta said there are variables he takes into account.
当被问及球队中的完美球员人数时，阿尔特塔表示他会考虑一些变量。
"It depends on the ability and the history of those players," Arteta said.
“这取决于这些球员的能力和历史，”阿尔特塔说。
"I think there is a lot of factors that count.
“我认为有很多因素很重要。
Twenty two outfield players and three goalkeepers of what is enough, or maybe you know more. "You need to understand what happened in the previous season, the injury record of those players, the versatility of certain players.
二十二名外场球员和三名门将就足够了，或者也许你知道更多。 “你需要了解上个赛季发生了什么，那些球员的伤病记录，某些球员的多才多艺。
"But I'm sure we're going to hit the right number to have a bit of both a lot of competition with the right level of cooperation in the team and everybody feeling important."
“但我确信我们会达到正确的数字，既可以进行大量的竞争，又可以在团队中进行适当的合作，并且让每个人都感到自己很重要。”
Arsenal want to be one of the global powerhouses in world football.
阿森纳希望成为世界足坛的强队之一。
Chief executive Richard Garlick said in an interview with the Times that joining the world's superclubs is "the goal - that's the ambition".
首席执行官理查德·加利克在接受《泰晤士报》采访时表示，加入世界超级俱乐部是“目标——这就是雄心”。
The Gunners are actively exploring how to increase their revenue off the pitch and are looking at stadium expansion plans.
枪手正在积极探索如何增加场外收入，并正在考虑球场扩建计划。
Garlick, in an interview with BBC Sport, acknowledged that the "pool of players is smaller now than it was a few years ago if we're going to improve".
加里克在接受英国广播公司体育频道采访时承认，“如果我们要进步的话，现在的球员数量比几年前要少”。
In other words, as Arsenal have got better, it has become more difficult to find players who will improve them. They are still in the market for a forward and have a long-term interest in Julian Alvarez.
换句话说，随着阿森纳变得更好，找到能够提高他们水平的球员变得更加困难。 他们仍在市场上寻找前锋，并对朱利安·阿尔瓦雷斯有长期兴趣。
They have also monitored 21-year-old forward Kenan Yildiz from Juventus. But after Konsa's arrival, if another player does come in, expect the signing to lift club to another level.
他们还监视了来自尤文图斯的21岁前锋凯南·耶尔迪兹。 但在孔萨到来后，如果确实有另一名球员加盟，预计这笔签约将把俱乐部提升到另一个水平。
