Arsenal has officially announced their plans for the upcoming January transfer window.

In the recent matches, Mikel Arteta's team has shown significant progress. However, this positive development has not deterred Arsenal fans from hoping for new additions to the squad during the upcoming January transfer window. Unfortunately, their hopes may be for naught.

The Gunners have been facing a rough start to the season, with injuries plaguing their key players and causing disruptions in their progress. Moreover, disciplinary issues have also contributed to their losses against teams like Brighton, Manchester City, and Bournemouth, leaving them trailing behind the Premier League leaders Liverpool by a significant nine points.

However, things seem to be turning around for Arsenal after the international break, as their captain Martin Odegaard returned to the team. This coincided with impressive wins against Nottingham Forest and Sporting Lisbon, with a total of eight goals scored in just two matches. This has made a mockery of the notion that Arsenal is in dire need of a new striker.

Despite being linked to potential transfers such as Sporting's Viktor Gyokeres, his fellow countryman Alexander Isak, and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko, who chose to stay with his Bundesliga club last summer instead of joining a Premier League giant, Arsenal seems to have other plans. According to ESPN, the Gunners are not planning any major moves in the January window and are instead trusting in players like Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus, and Leandro Trossard.

Looking ahead, Viktor Gyokoeres is currently one of the most sought-after strikers in Europe. However, a quiet winter window is expected for Arsenal, unless injuries once again become a major issue before the end of the year. Currently, only Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu are out for an extended period, and the team seems to have enough depth in the full-back positions.

They have players like Oleksandr Zinchenko and Myles Lewis-Skelly for the left-back position, while Jakub Kiwior and Kieran Tierney are also available. Speaking of Tierney, Arteta expressed his delight at the player's return after a long injury, stating that he has been training with the team and is ready to participate in the upcoming game in Lisbon on Tuesday. This is great news for the Gunners, who will surely benefit from having their captain back on the field.
