Arsenal have just a few days to get all of their transfer business completed before they have to settle with the current squad and continue their push in all competitions. Mikel Arteta made a number of signings before the season started, spending over £100million after narrowly missing out on a return to the Champions League.
The focus has since switched to fringe players securing exits to trim down the squad, with the latest being club-record signing Nicolas Pepe on loan to OGC Nice for the campaign. While some are still eyeing a move away, there could still be some movement into the club.
Discussing the possibility of transfers in the next week, Arteta said: "We have done it in a different way. At the start of the window we signed players before getting other players out. Now we have done something different, we have let a player go and maybe [we’ll] be able to recruit somebody.
