Mikel Arteta has admitted Arsenal are still not in a position to take a transfer window off, just days before deals can be completed again.
The Gunners sit at the top of the Premier League, five points clear of nearest rivals Manchester City. That first half of the season has bred fresh optimism that Arsenal could win their first title in almost 20 years.
Arteta has been well backed during his time in charge and has radically overhauled the playing staff since taking over at the end of 2019. Gabriel Jesus was the marquee signing of the summer window, arriving in a deal worth £45million from City.
