The Two Main Reasons Mikel Arteta Might Not Get January Transfers Revealed

Arsenal fans might not get their wish of signing new players according to Sky Sports.

It was revealed that the Gunners will most likely not sign any player during the current winter transfer window.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta hinted that he could bolster his squad with one or two signings during his post-match press conference after his first win as the Arsenal manager.

Arteta managed his first victory as an Arsenal manager during the last league game.

The Gunners saw off Manchester United 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium courtesy the goals from Ivorian international star Nicholas Pepe and Greek international Sokratis Papasthathopoulos.

The Arsenal goals came in the first half of the Premier League clash played on New Year’s Day.

According to the publication from popular English media outlet Metro, there are two reasons why Arsenal won’t make a signing in the present January transfer window.

The first reason is that Arsenal spent a lot of money in the summer and are not keen on another transfer splurge in the winter transfer window this month.

The likes of Nicholas Pepe, David Luiz, Gabriel Martinelli and many more joined Arsenal last summer in a deal totaling £137m.

The second reason is that William Saliba is expected to return to Arsenal this summer after he was loaned to Saint Etienne for the entire duration of this season.
