Arteta opens door to Arsenal buying in January

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has opened the door to adding to his squad in January.

Arteta has had to juggle his selection in recent weeks due to injury.

Ahead of facing Everton this weekend, he said, "I never expect January to be super busy but some surprises always come. Hopefully the availability of the squad is going to be better in recent weeks."

On Gabriel Magalhaes's return, Arteta continued: "There is a possibility with one of them to be available. He trained today. It’s Gabriel."

On Riccardo Calafiori, he added: "We’re just respecting the times that the medical department has set. We monitor him every day."

Potential Targets 

 While no specific names have been linked yet, Arsenal have been rumored to be monitoring several players across Europe. From midfield dynamos to versatile forwards, the club’s scouting network is likely working overtime to identify talent that can make an immediate impact. Arteta’s comments suggest that any January additions will be carefully considered rather than reactive. “We want players who can improve the team, not just add numbers,” he emphasized.
