This season, Arsenal has made gratifying changes for fans, although they have suffered three consecutive defeats at the beginning of the season, but the team has slowly found its feelings, and it is clear that the impact of the top four has become Arsenal's main goal this season.
Recently, Arsenal have had some problems. Due to the Africa Cup of Nations and the likes of Xhaka and Aubameyang, the team became short of major generals after their North London derby with Tottenham was postponed due to insufficient numbers. The team's position in the league has also been temporarily overtaken by West Ham. As a result, Arsenal's main goal now is to add players.
According to the Daily Mirror, Arsenal hope to complete the transfer operations for Vlahović and Artur before the winter window transfer deadline. While Arteta wants to go further, Espanyol wants to add new signings ahead of the second leg of this week's League Cup semi-finals (against Liverpool).
Arsenal's mission is to add two players, one striker and one midfielder, with Vlahovic and Artur being Arteta's main targets in both positions.
Arteta not only hopes that the team will be able to complete the top four goals this season, but also hopes that the team will make a difference in the League Cup. As a result, he hopes to complete the new signings before the second leg of the League Cup this Thursday night. In the first leg, Arsenal drew 0-0 with Liverpool, a match with the Reds with one less player, giving Arteta hopes of reaching the final and even winning the trophy.
It has been previously reported that Arsenal have launched a €70 million offer to the Purple Lily forwards, and once Vlahovic and Artur are finalized, there is no doubt that Arsenal will be greatly replenished in the squad, which will benefit their sprint in the second half of the schedule.
