Arsene Wenger reveals January transfer window plans to Arsenal fans
Arsene Wenger delivers the latest Arsenal transfer news for supporters as the January window draws nearer
Arsene Wenger has hinted that Arsenal will only dip into the January transfer market if they are able to find some top quality additions.
The Gunners are bound to be linked with a host of players in the coming days as the north London side consider adding to their squad in the mid-season transfer window.
Arsenal were not particularly busy in the summer window, with the Gunners having only brought in Sead Kolasinac and Alexandre Lacazette.
The north London side have not been able to find much consistent form this season, with Wenger’s men currently fifth in the table and 19 points behind leaders Manchester City after 18 games.
Arsenal will be keen to push for a top-four finish in the second half of the season as they also look to progress in the Europa League and defend their FA Cup title.
However, Wenger has remained typically coy when quizzed about his transfer plans for the mid-season window.
Speaking in an interview with beIN Sports, Wenger said: “You do not imagine that we will change 10 players in January. It’s 90 per cent that it’s the same squad.
“If we can find some additions to strengthen our squad we will do it. But we have a big squad, I think we have players of quality. We need just to stick together and fight as we can until the end of the season.
“I believe that we have to be faithful to the players we have at the moment.”
Wenger is currently preparing his Arsenal side for their crunch Premier League clash against Liverpool FC at The Emirates on Friday night.
The Gunners will be out for revenge after they were thrashed 4-0 by Liverpool FC when the two teams last met back in August at Anfield.
