Arsenal could pounce on the potential signing of Joao Felix in the upcoming January transfer window. But for the Gunners to stand any chance, Mikel Arteta’s side must be in a strong position to finish in the Champions League places ahead of next season, which is already the case as the north London side leads the league table by five points.
The Gunners finished the summer transfer window with just Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah as the forward options going into the season. Matters have become even more strained for Arteta’s forward options, amid Jesus’ knee injury that he suffered at the World Cup.
However, this could be eased in January with the arrival of Felix. And the Gunners have been given a boost in securing his signature due to Manchester United’s summer transfer business.
