Arsenal are running out if time if they are to strengthen their squad in the January transfer window. The deadline is just over a week-and-a-half away and the Gunners are still to make a move. There is plenty of talk, though, that Mikel Arteta and co will act in the coming days, with a new striker top of the Spaniard's wishlist.
Bejamin Sesko, who the club were ready to bid for back in the summer, and Matheus Cunha of Wolves have both been linked in recent days, with the latter yet to sign a new contract with his current club.
