Arsenal looking to go shopping in January transfer window – Premier League Update
It is being reported that Arsenal are currently contemplating a number of signings for the January transfer window, in order to add some depth and quality to the current squad.
The team is looking to let a number of the youth players leave on loans, in order to perfect their craft. As a result, the team is going to need to bring in players to fill in as substitutes, in order to provide cover for the spots that are vacated in the
team.
At the moment, Arsene Wenger is reported to be looking to sign a striker, a midfielder and some defensive reinforcements.
German international, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 and the forward needs to be given ample rest, or
he might burn himself out.
On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gervinho-c14755 is set to leave for the African cup of nations and Podolski, being as versatile as he is, can fill in on the wing as well.
In the middle of the park, the manager is looking to add some more expierence and is currently targeting Lyon midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Yoann-Gourcuff-c37416. The French international was a target for the team in the summers, but its seems like he is far more suited to coming
into the side in January now.
Lastly, the team has had its fair share of defensive problems over the course of the last couple of seasons and this season has been no different.
The team is currently relying on its centre backs to cover for the injured full backs and hence Wenger is reported to be sniffing around for a fullback or two.
Arsenal are being rumoured to possesses a transfer kitty of around 40 million pounds to spend in the January transfer window and if spent wisely, Wenger could bring in just the right players, who can help the team inch closer to picking up a trophy or two
at the end of the season.
It is now a wait to see just what players the manager decides to approach.
