Time is ticking away in the January transfer window and Arsenal have still yet to bring in any senior reinforcement to the squad despite allowing several players to leave.
Sead Kolasinac has left to join Marseille whilst Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Pablo Mari and Folarin Balogun have all left Arsenal on loan for Roma, Udinese and Middlesbrough respectively. The Gunners have recalled a number of younger players too with Miguel Azeez and Tyreece John-Jules returning.
However, despite little time in the window remaining, Arsenal under Mikel Arteta with the aid of technical director Edu have looked to plan for the long term. However, a recent piece of indirect help for Antonio Conte has perhaps aided his north London rivals’ cause.
