'Last minute' Moussa Diaby tussle, Declan Rice interest, exits - Arsenal transfer state of play

We're well over halfway into the transfer window but Arsenal are still calm about how things are progressing. The Gunners missed out on Mykhailo Mudryk after deciding not to pay the £88million price Shakhtar Donetsk were demanding for the sake of the long-term future of the club. While there is of course disappointment at being gazumped by Chelsea, Mikel Arteta has said that he, Edu and club officials are still united over what they want to do this month.

"We have excellent players and we want to improve our squad in this transfer window – when I say we I mean, myself, the coaching staff, the staff players, the board and the ownership – we all want to do that," Arteta told football.london after Sunday's 2-0 win over Spurs. "But we will do the deals we can do and the ones we feel are right for the club."

Arteta has still demanded more firepower in his squad though, and it's thought that Arsenal are open to the possibility if the right player becomes available. Meanwhile, there could still be some exits out of north London in the coming days. Here football.london takes a look at how things stand right now.
