Mikel Arteta has tended to be very coy when it comes to transfers and the strategy of the club for upcoming windows. However, perhaps the Arsenal manager has finally provided some hope to supporters that the upcoming January market will be used to help cover the recent blow to the side.
Gabriel Jesus’ injury during the World Cup left him needing surgery and a potential three-month period of recovery. It meant Arsenal were down to just one natural senior striker in Eddie Nketiah and mixed performances across the mid-season friendlies failed to grow confidence.
Perhaps it is therefore unsurprising to see Mikel Arteta speak about the potential for a solution to be found in the January transfer window. In an interview with Arsenal.com, Arteta details the impact of Jesus’ absence and the strategies to cope with it.”
