The Athletic: Arsenal unlikely to make permanent signings in January (reliability: 5 stars)

Mikel Arteta is hoping to add to his squad in January as Arsenal look to make a push in the title race.

However, according to The Athletic, permanent signings are unlikely to happen in the winter due to FFP restrictions.

The Gunners will be limited to bringing in players on loan with an eye of making big-money signings in the summer of 2024.

Arteta's main priority is to bolster the defence and the switch to midfielder where Thomas Partey remains someone who can't be relied upon.
