Arteta Confirms January Transfers After Arsenal’s Derby Triumph
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confirmed the club’s plans to strengthen their squad during the January transfer window.
Speaking after his team’s impressive 2-1 comeback victory over Tottenham on Wednesday night, Arteta emphasized the need for reinforcements as they navigate injuries to key players.
The win in the North London Derby keeps Arsenal’s Premier League title hopes alive. They now sit four points behind league leaders Liverpool, who still have a game in hand. However, Arteta faces a tough challenge with the loss of two crucial players.
“We’ve lost two very important players,” Arteta revealed. “Bukayo [Saka] could be sidelined for up to three months, and Gabriel Jesus might be out for an even longer period.
So yes, we’re looking to bring in new players this window. We’re actively searching and will see what’s possible.”
Arteta also took time to praise 18-year-old Miles Lewis-Skelly, who made a remarkable debut in the North London Derby.
“Lewis-Skelly was phenomenal,” Arteta said. “He’s got this incredible self-belief and personality.
To come into a game of this magnitude, against opponents of that quality, and deliver such a performance is exceptional.
He managed the occasion brilliantly and proved he belongs at this level.”
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
