With 10 days left in the January transfer window, Arsenal will need to act fast if they are to bring in reinforcements to help their push for Champions League football.
After a dismal display against a Liverpool side without star duo Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane in the 2-0 second leg defeat in the semi-final of the Carabao Cup, Arsenal’s trophy hopes are now dead and buried.
Attentions will now shift back to achieving a top four finish in the league, and Mikel Arteta could look to the transfer market in order to make sure he gets the Gunners back into Europe’s premier competition.
Here are five players Arsenal are tipped to sign on SkyBet.
Arthur Melo – 4/6
The Juventus man has been closely linked with Arsenal in recent weeks and is heavily backed in the betting market to make the move to the Emirates.
Arsenal will be looking to add to their midfield options as soon as possible with Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey both getting needless red cards in recent matches, and the decision to loan out Ainsley Maitland-Niles has caused Arteta even more headaches as he looks to find his perfect midfield combination.
Dusan Vlahovic – 5/4
A striker is on the agenda for Arteta with the future of Pierre Emerick Aubameyang up in the air.
Serbian Vlahovic has enjoyed a great season so far, with 20 goals and four assists in 24 appearances for Fiorentina, the 21-year-old will be in hot demand.
Arsenal are believed to be at the front of the queue but faces competition from Juventus and Tottenham.
Gini Wijnaldum – 3/1
The former Liverpool man has struggled to nail down a regular role at Paris Saint Germain and a return to the Premier League could be on the table.
The experienced Dutchman will add must needed energy and stability to the often rash Arsenal midfield.
Dominic Calvert Lewin – 7/2
Everton front man Calvert Lewin has been closely linked with a move away from Goodison Park, with uncertainly over the club’s next manager, this could be the time for Calvert Lewin to push for a transfer away.
The 24 year old has only made five appearances in the league so far due to injury problems. But with three goals to his name. His goalscoring ability will be appealing to Arteta.
Aaron Ramsey – 8/1
A stunning and emotional return for Aaron Ramsey is priced at 8/1. Could be a long shot but a shot worth taking.
Ramsey has struggled for game time at Juventus and Arteta could bring the Welshman back to hold his midfield together.
With a wealth of Premier League experience and strong knowledge of the club, Ramsey could be the one to solve Arsenal’s problems.
