Mikel Arteta has told the Arsenal board – several times now – that he wants to sign an attacker in the January transfer window

Mikel Arteta has said that the club have "very clear ideas" on who they want to sign during the January transfer window as they struggle with an influx of injuries.

Mikel Arteta has said Arsenal "passed a test of attitude" after overcoming a difficult week to beat north London rivals Tottenham 2-1 at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday.

Arsenal's Mikel Arteta hailed his side's 2-1 comeback win against north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday as proof his side remains firmly in the Premier League title race, although he rued their failure to kill the game off despite ample opportunity.

Have we already witnessed the peak years of Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal reign? It feels like this Emirates era is heading towards a crossroads, with Arsenal in the middle of a high-stakes game. This will either be one of the greatest seasons in the club’s history - ending a 21-year wait for the Premier League title - or a campaign which ends amid a highly-charged post-season review as to how they squandered their best chance to become champions in two decades.

Arsenal could be forced into a bold January transfer raid after losing Gabriel Jesus for the remainder of the 2024/25 season. Jesus suffered an ACL injury in Arsenal's FA Cup exit at the hands of Manchester United with the Brazil international scoring six goals in his previous six appearances for the Gunners.
