Arsenal's search for a new midfielder will continue over the final days of the January transfer window after Mikel Arteta's side suffered a blow to Mohamed Elneny. The Egyptian is currently out injured and leaves the Gunners thin in their options in the middle of the park.
Arteta has already admitted his desire to sign another midfielder before the window closes next Tuesday. The Gunners boss explained to football.london prior to Friday's trip to Manchester City that he would like to recruit an additional figure in midfield. "Well, we need some more cover in midfield really if we can," he said.
"In this market, it’s pretty complicated to do that. The most important thing is that we get the performances and the time on the pitch that we need with the players we have available today that are already really good."
