Arsenal have spent big but wisely in the last two windows. With the Gunners top of the Premier League table at this early stage of the season, it's so far looking like money well spent and the club will be hoping that level of impressive recruitment continues in
Time will tell if they can sustain their form, but things are looking good at the Emirates Stadium so far. However, although Edu and Mikel Arteta have made some astute signings, there's a worry that they're still a little light in some areas, particularly in midfield and at right-wing.
As Arsenal's search for a new winger has been well-known, supporters have tried to guess who that 'mystery winger' may be. With that in mind, let's take a look at a few options out there.

Mykhaylo Mudryk
Arsenal's interest in Mykhaylo Mudryk has been known for a while now and it appears as though the youngster is very open to a move to Arsenal. Speaking to CBS Sports, he said: "I think every guy dreams about the Premier League. It's hard to say [who his preferred move is], but Arsenal is a very good team, very good coach, I like the way they play."
The problem is, Shakhtar Donetsk are reluctant to sell the player at a reduced price, so he may prove to be an expensive purchase.
Marco Asensio
Asensio's agent Jorge Mendes is said to be testing the waters for potential suitors as he searches for a January move away for his client. Arsenal have long been linked with a move for the Spaniard's signature but have so far failed to act on their reported interest. As Arsenal are also a little short at right-wing and Asensio can operate in that role, it's a deal that makes sense on paper. His injury record is the only real worry.
Alex Baena
After scoring three goals in six appearances so far this season, 21-year-old Baena is the latest player to be linked with a move to north London. In what is good news for potential buyers, former Arsenal boss Unai Emery has openly admitted that should bids arrive for his star players, then he will have little resistance considering the La Liga outfit's poor financial situation. That being said, he's primarily operated on the left-hand side thus far this campaign, an area where Arteta's team have a little bit more depth when injury free.
Yeremy Pino
Another option is Baena's teammate, Pino. There were rumours that the Gunners could make a move for the right-winger in the summer but as we well know, a deal never materialised.
