Arsenal have been handed a huge blow in their pursuit for PSV Eindhoven winger Cody Gakpo if recent reports are to be believed. The Gunners have a few weeks to get their transfer business done before it closes until January, with a few late deals potentially on the table.
It comes after a busy window for Mikel Arteta, who added five new faces to the squad before the start of the new Premier League season. While it seems as though most of the business is concluded, there are a few areas that could be addressed in the coming weeks.
The forward ranks appear to be one of those, with the Gunners failing in a bid to sign Raphinha earlier in the window while he was still at Leeds United. They are yet to make a move for another winger since, however, a loan exit for club-record signing Nicolas Pepe could free up space in the squad.
