The World Cup may be well underway, but Arsenal fans' attentions are quickly beginning to turn to the January transfer window. It may be one month until it opens, but with an unexpected title charge on the cards, many are keen to see the Gunners bolster their squad depth.
It does seem as though they are making plans after owner Josh Kroenke held meetings with club officials on a visit to London at the start of this month. Mikel Arteta meanwhile has hinted that Arsenal are looking to increase their title chances by stating that his side are now targeting higher calibre additions to the squad.
"Obviously with the position that we are in right now as well, it demands as well another level of player - and that player has to be available," the Spaniard told reporters last week. "We will look at everything and let’s see what we can do." Forwards Facundo Torres and Mykhalo Mudryk have been linked, while Eintracht Frankfurt's Evan Ndicka has been mentioned as someone who could improve the left centre-back spot. Another position where Arsenal may look to strengthen is in midfield.
