Arsenal are looking to potentially add two new faces before the end of this month's transfer deadline.
The Gunners are said to be keen on bringing in a midfielder and perhaps a striker too, with Edu hoping to help ensure Mikel Arteta's side qualify for European football next season.
With Mohamed Elneny excelling at present in the Africa Cup of Nations, his return could be extended past the recent international break, should his Egypt side go on to claim their eighth title in Cameroon.
