Mikel Arteta at risk of failing to fulfil Arsenal transfer promise amid Man Utd threat

After making an action-packed start to the summer transfer window, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta now finds himself in danger of seeing a number of key deals derailed.

The Gunners have added United States stopper Matt Turner, highly-rated Brazilian winger Marquinhos and £34million man Fabio Vieira to their ranks already this summer while top target Gabriel Jesus is on the cusp of joining Arteta's evolving squad. The north London club are by no means finished on the transfer front, either, with more potential signings in the pipeline.

Arsenal have also made well-documented attempts to lure Leeds winger Raphinha and versatile Ajax star Lisandro Martinez to the Emirates this summer. However, with both deals hitting the buffers in recent days, Arteta now finds himself at risk of failing to fulfil his transfer promise from earlier in the year.
