Caicedo, Mudryk, Fresneda - Five Arsenal January transfers that didn't happen and why

Arsenal's January transfer window panned out differently than many could have anticipated as it included many hijacks, bids and last minute moves.

The total spend came in at roughly £53million as the side looked to strengthen the squad heading into the latter half of the season. With that now secure, a title push is on the horizon, sitting top of the Premier League and several points clear of second-place Manchester City.

However, that window could have ended very differently, with at least five transfers not going through for the Gunners by the end of proceedings. With that said, here's a look at those deals and why they didn't come to fruition.
