Arsenal have days remaining of the January transfer window to complete any late business for both possible incomings and outgoings.
The Gunners have so far been frustrated in their attempts to bring in a striker with Fiorentina forward Dusan Vlahovic closing in on a move to Juventus. Arsenal have left it late in frustratingly historic fashion with criticism of Mikel Arteta and Edu increasing from the fan base.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s situation further complicates the matter. The Gabonese striker was stripped of the Arsenal captaincy in December and football.london understands that despite interest from the Middle East, the 32-year-old’s preference is to stay in Europe.
