Former USMNT international goalkeeper Brad Friedel has warned Arsenal that it could take January transfer target Facundo Torres some time to adjust to the Premier League. The Orlando City winger has continued to be linked with a switch to north London as one of a few potential reinforcements in the winter window.
The Gunners could need a number of signings to help them achieve an unlikely Premier League title triumph, currently sitting top of the table at the mid-season break. They hold a five point gap over Manchester City for the next month, leading to Mikel Arteta conceding that his side are in the mix for the title.
However, with the hugely congested fixture schedule between them and lifting the trophy, signings may be necessary after the manager claimed he had a light squad. "That’s the squad that we have and we have to try to utilise the squad in the best possible way," the Spaniard said.
