Arsenal have been told if they want to win their first Premier League title since 2004 they should sign Cristiano Ronaldo in January. The Portuguese forward is currently available on a free transfer after his release from Manchester United last month.
The Gunners look likely to seek a short term replacement for Gabriel Jesus after the Brazilian was confirmed to be out of action for a couple of months. The striker sustained a knee injury in his nation's final World Cup group stage game against Cameroon and has undergone surgery that will see him sidelined for the foreseeable.
Mikel Arteta confirmed after watching his side win the Dubai Super Cup on Tuesday that the club are "looking at the possibilities" of making any mid-season signings. It's understood that the Spaniard was keen to add a new central midfielder and winger to his squad prior to Jesus' injury, but the number nine position may require immediate attention.
