Jonas Eidevall lifts lid on Arsenal's January transfer plan after double injury blow

Jonas Eidevall has revealed Arsenal will look to make some new signings in January after losing star attacker Vivianne Miedema to an ACL injury.

Miedema was stretchered off during the Gunners' 1-0 defeat to Lyon last week and it was confirmed on Monday the 26-year-old has ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament. She becomes the second Arsenal player to be sidelined with the injury in a matter of weeks after England forward Beth Mead also tore her ACL during Arsenal's 3-2 loss at home to Manchester United in late November.

Both players will now undergo surgery and face a race against time to be fit for next summer's FIFA Women's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
