Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said that the club will try to strengthen the squad further during the January transfer window.
The north London giants are currently top of the league table with a two-point lead over Pep Guardiola‘s Manchester City.
There is just one more game before the World Cup break and speaking to reporters, Arteta was asked about winter signings.
In response, the Spaniard said that the transfer window could be unpredictable with the World Cup in the middle of the season.
He said: “I don’t know, this is so unpredictable this window, especially with the World Cup in the middle.We will have a look, we will try to get the squad stronger and be active, because we don’t know what is going to happen in that World Cup. Touch wood, everybody will be OK.”
Arsenal must strengthen their squad in the New Year to challenge for the English crown. They have not come this close in several seasons.
City are everyone’s favourites to win the league title for the third year running, but Arteta will be hoping that his team can defy all odds.
