Mikel Arteta is looking to beat his near rivals Chelsea and Manchester United to landing Atletico Madrid striker Joao Felix on a potential long-term deal for Arsenal this January. It comes as the Gunners step up interest in the Portugal international to strengthen their ranks before the window closes.
With the side top of the league and a few points clear in the new year, it could be one of their best chances possible of winning the Premier League title in their recent history. However, one concern for the side will be their depth compared to current champions Manchester City.
The Citizens have built a title-winning squad that can compete across all competitions with quality spread across it, with Jack Grealish and Riyad Mahrez's introduction from the bench and eventual match-winning link up against Chelsea in midweek proving that. The transfer window could offer Arsenal a chance to rectify that, with plenty of players linked with a swtich.
