Mikel Arteta would be evaluating seven players to sign for Arsenal in January market window.

Arsenal got a horrible 0-2 defeat against West Ham in the Emirates Stadium on the nineteenth day of the 2023/2024 Premier League season where the Gunners were really surprised by a solid rival who knew how to profit the weaknesses of the North London team, who was dropped from the leadership of the Premier League in favor or Liverpool.

In this sense, the Gunners’ defeat would have seriously impacted the coaching staff of the North London team, who alongside their fans, started to rumor about potential new signings to strengthen the squad for the second part of the season, as everyone at the club remembers the tragic drop from the race for the title they experienced last season.

For this reason, the sporting direction of the North London team would have already designed a plan to improve Mikel Arteta’s team for the next few months, and the staff headed by the Spanish coach and the sporting director Edu Gaspar would have already identified up to seven players to evaluate for their potential signing during the January transfer market window.

Arsenal could improve several positions in the squad

In this respect, according to the English football site The Athletic, Arsenal would be thinking of the Borussia Dortmund’s defender Nico Schlotterbeck, Matthijs De Light from Bayern and Jorrel Hato from Ajax for their defense, while Aston Villa’s player Douglas Luiz and Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad would be the players tracked for improving the team’s midfield. In the attack, the Gunners would have Ivan Toney from Brentford in the top of their wish list, and Pedro Neto from Wolverhampton would be considered as an option to reinforce the team’s wings due to his quality and versatility.
