Arsenal did end their unbeaten run of 22 games with a 3-2 loss against Southampton and Unai Emery revealed the club’s possibilities of signing more players in January.
The Spanish boss brought in 5 players in Stephan Lichtsteiner, Lucas Torreira, Matteo Guendouzi, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Bernd Leno after taking charge of the Gunners last summer.
The current squad could use some improvements, especially if they want to finish the campaign in the top four of the Premier League. Emery said, “We don’t have a lot of possibilities. Maybe we can think of something to sign to help us, but only if we think the players can’t help us with a good performance.”
“January is not a good transfer window for this reason, but we are going to look and the club is working for transfers in January, but also we are in a [good] way.”
With Rob Holding ruled out for the remainder of the season, Emery had a lack of options at the centre-half position during the weekend fixture.
Currently, AS Roma’s Cengiz Under and Boca Juniors’ Cristian Pavon tops the club’s list of wanted wingers. The North London outfit have also been linked with Werder Bremen midfielder, Florian Grillitsch.
The former Sevilla boss further added, “We are making progress with young players and giving them chances, and when we need to give them more chances to play and show their progress we are going to do that.”
