Mikel Arteta admits Arsenal’s flying start has altered their plans for the January transfer window, with the manager suggesting the table toppers must now target signings of an even higher calibre.
‘With the position we are in right now… it demands another level of player,’ Arteta said on Wednesday.
Arteta, whose side sit two points clear of Manchester City, wants to add to his squad in January with a winger believed to the club’s No 1 priority. Orlando City’s Facundo Torres and Mykhaylo Mudryk of Shakhtar Donetsk are two possible targets.
