Just when it started to look like Arsenal were pretty much done with incomings this month, Mikel Arteta sent another clear message to sporting director Edu on Wednesday, claiming that he would ideally like more cover in midfield.
The Spaniard’s admission came after football.london’s Arsenal correspondent, Kaya Kaynak, asked Arteta if a potentially long-term injury for Mohamed Elneny could see the club dip back into the market.
“There are concerns, especially [because] Mo is a player who never complains about anything. But let’s see,” Arteta said during his press conference. “We need some more cover in midfield ideally if we can. In this market it’s pretty complicated to do that.”
