Former Arsenal player Ian Wright has expressed his desire to see two players, Omar Marmoush and Ademola Lookman, join the club during the January transfer window. Wright, who is considered a legend at Arsenal, believes that these two players would be a perfect fit for his former team.
Currently, Arsenal sits at third place in the Premier League table after 17 games, trailing behind league leaders Liverpool by six points. After a rough patch in October and November, the team seemed to be getting back on track, but disappointing draws against Fulham and Everton have once again raised concerns among fans. Although the team's confidence has been boosted by a recent 5-1 win against Crystal Palace, there are still calls for Arsenal to strengthen their squad during the winter transfer market.
However, it is unlikely that Arsenal will make any big signings in January unless they are faced with a sudden injury crisis. Wright, who played for Arsenal in the past, understands the challenges of trying to bring in new players midway through the season. Nonetheless, he believes that there are areas where the team could use some improvement.
When asked about potential signings that could turn Arsenal's season around, Wright suggested two players - Omar Marmoush from Eintracht Frankfurt and Ademola Lookman from Atalanta. He spoke highly of Marmoush's performance in the Bundesliga and praised Lookman for being named the African Player of the Year after an outstanding year with Atalanta and Nigeria.
Wright believes that these two players would be a perfect fit for Arsenal's style of play and could greatly benefit the team. However, he also acknowledges that bringing them in might be a difficult task.
As for Arsenal's current manager, Mikel Arteta, he has downplayed fans' expectations for big signings in January. He stated that although the team is prepared for any surprises or opportunities that may arise, they are not expecting a busy transfer window. He also mentioned that the team's squad availability is expected to improve in the coming weeks, so they will have to wait and see.
In the end, it remains to be seen whether Arsenal will make any moves in the January transfer window and if they will heed Wright's suggestion to bring in Marmoush and Lookman. For now, fans can only hope that the team continues to perform well and stay in the race for the Premier League title.
