Mikel Arteta has revealed that there will be a number of expenses in January, with players in a position to be sent on loan.
Sead Kolasinac would be one of the first names to leave, and Schalke concluded an agreement for the left-back.
Arteta said: “Well, we have a wonderful team. We knew that. A lot of things that have happened this summer we couldn’t achieve for other reasons. “
“There are many players who are going to be loaned. They’re going to leave. And that’s the precedence right now because we can’t keep the numbers we have in safe positions.
“We are going to go out to do it. And then we are going to see if we have the right opportunities in positions where we want more help, we paint with the club to see if we can find them. “
Arsenal have reportedly joined Liverpool in Roma defense race Roger Ibáñez.
Calciomercato says Arsenal have asked about the 22-year-old’s availability, while Liverpool have also previously connected.
Brazilian defender Ibáñez is recently on loan in Rome through Atalanta and is around 35 million pounds.
Arsenal and Liverpool are willing to be behind, Arsenal defenders David Luiz and Skhodran Mustafi are expected to leave this summer, and Sokratis is also close to the Emirates coming out the door.
Liverpool, meantime, find the way to a defensive nightmare with injuries from Virgil Van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Joel Matip, Tottenham, Everton, Leicester and PSG would all love Ibanez.
Real Madrid midfielder Isco remains on the radar of Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta with a six-month loan contract, the ideal setting, according to reports.
A loan deal would mean the Gunners wouldn’t have to spend a lot of cash in January, there are doubts about whether Isco will be able to leave Madrid.
Despite real-time difficulties, Isco has played 10 La Liga games this season and, according to Goal, The Whites bosses still don’t know what to do with the 28-year-old.
Isco’s signing would be a first coup for the Gunners, who don’t have an easy spark in the middle of the field to put them on the table.
Arsenal striker Emile Smith-Rowe, 20, is expected to stay with the Gunners in January and look for a loan.
Smith-Rowe’s functionality in the Europa League earned him a spot in Mikel Arteta’s last two Premier League lineups, with the Gunners winning both games.
Smith-Rowe is reportedly on loan in January to look for consistent exits, but CBS says Smith-Rowe will now be in north London.
Arsenal remain an artistic midfielder, but Smith-Rowe’s appearance has brought a breath of new air to the Gunners midfielder.
Mikel Arteta has known two strikers as imaginable substitutes for Alexandre Lacazette.
Although the winner opposed to Brighton last time won, CBS Sports says the Gunners have doubts about Lacazette’s long-term in the Emirates.
Patson Daka of Red Bull Salzburg and Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard are believed to be two strikers the Gunners love.
Edouard has already been connected to a season in the Gunners after a stellar crusader season.
Seven goals in 14 games this season for the 22-year-old is not as prolific as he was last season, but rumors of a move may have affected his form.
Zambian Daka, 22, has scored 8 goals in eight games in the Austrian Bundesliga this season.
Arsenal left-back Sead Kolasinac is reportedly about to leave the Emirates and has reached a transfer agreement with the Bundesliga Schalke.
Football London reports that 27-year-old Kolasinac will sign with Schalke at the back of the table for a six-month loan, with no legal responsibility to buy.
Kolasinac has played a bit for the Gunners in recent months, as Kieran Tierney has firmly established he has established he hem as a first-choice left-back.
The Bosnian left back to the look he left in 2017 to sign for the Gunners.
Arsenal have reportedly joined the race to point out RB Leipzig midfielder Marcel Sabitzer.
North London’s rivals Tottenham are the other team interested in the 26-year-old, but according to ESPN, Arsenal are in a position to compete with the Spurs for their signing.
The Gunners are connected to a crowd of midfielders across Europe as Mikel Arteta desperately seeks an artistic spark in the middle of the park.
Sabitzer is worth around forty-five million pounds and has 3 goals and one lends a hand in nine Bundesliga games this season.
Leon Bailey has put Arsenal and Manchester United on red alert by joining Will Salthouse’s sports control agency.
Bayer Leverkusen’s star has been linked to movements in both Tottenham and Tottenham.
Everton reportedly sent scouts to keep an eye on the winger.
Jamaican foreigner Bailey is valued at around $40 million and will be represented through Phoenix Sports Management, his father Craig Butler and USM Salthouse, according to the Mail.
Meanwhile, Rob Holding insists arsenal are aiming for a position in Europe after starting their season with back-to-back victories.
He said: “Let’s cross our fingers, we can go up to the league and move back on to the Europeans and move on.
“These two victories are a great seasoning of trust for us.
“We went through this very complicated period, but as soon as we won, it gave us a boost.
“Now we have another win and now we can run a little, win trouble and climb the leaderboard. “
Finally, Arsenal legend Ray Parlor believes the Gunners can aspire to sixth place as their “best” hope after a change of shape.
He told talkSPORT: “They probably wouldn’t be in the four most sensible, they’re too far away and they’ve given the other hill to climb.
“I know the other groups above them are also sliding, but I can’t see it.
“There are 4 groups bigger than Arsenal right now. For me, the sixth position is the most productive they can get.
Schalke reportedly approached Arsenal to sign a new contract with Sead Kolasinac.
Sky Germany says the left-back is wanted on loan by his former team.
Kolasinac is ahead of a deal.
And he’s even willing to settle for a pay cut to leave the United Arab Emirates next month.
CAN’T CREATE GAMES?
It’s not that easy. The late start means that the Prem season, usually divided into 34 weekends, is played on the 32nd, with two more scheduled weekdays.
But there is much less room for maneuver after European games, and weekdays won’t be available until mid-December.
The planners of the first assembly have set 3 “updates” dates – 2 March, 20 April and 19 May – but there is still enough space if the groups enter Europe and the national cups.
YES, BUT WHAT ABOUT THE SEASON EXTENSION?
I can’t. Unless there is a closure across Europe, the Prem will have to end on 23 May, so that players have time to prepare for euro 2020 behind June.
The Europa League and Champions League finals will be played the following week.
WHAT IF THERE ARE A NUMBER OF INFECTIONS?
The inability to finish the entire season is Prem’s worst fear, especially when clubs check “reduction rules” consistent with issues consistent with the game to be calculated.
They were already divided on how many games to play for the season to be valid, and now they are less likely to be LESS successful in a deal.
WILL THE PREM STOP?
Not if League leaders can do it, for many reasons.
Planning is the main thing, but they also threaten to waste even more millions of “discounts” on TV companies, in addition to the 340 million pounds clubs will have to pay during the last season.
BUT WHY ARE GAMES CANCELED?
Prem regulations say deferment requests will “not be granted” if a club has 14 or more senior players available.
But the league council may exercise its “case-by-case” discretion and City’s everton and Spurs match with Fulham was postponed for fear that the virus would be transmitted to the opposition’s locker room.
IT’S TWO GAMES. Then why are other people worried?
City and United delayed the season by a week, due to their efforts at the Euros this summer.
So City is now two games behind, as is Aston Villa, who will face United on the first weekend.
Now Newcastle, Everton, Burnley, Spurs and Fulham are a shy match.
Arsenal legend Ray Parlor believes the Gunners can regard the sixth position as their “best” hope after a change of course.
He told talkSPORT: “They probably wouldn’t be in the four most sensible, they’re too far away and they’ve given the most hard to climb.
“I know the other groups above them are sliding too, but I can’t see it.
“There are 4 groups bigger than Arsenal right now. For me, the sixth is the most productive they can get. “
Isco will desaira from Arsenal to move to Seville in the summer.
AS says the game maker will be able to leave Real Madrid at the end of the season after making three openings with Zinedine Zidane.
Bernabéu chiefs are said to have a movement payment of between thirteen and 18 million pounds.
And they also expect Sevilla to succeed with Isco’s full annual salary of 7 million pounds, freeing up an area in the salary budget for a possible signing at Galactico.
We all know that 2020 was a year like no other, but we can count on the game to give a sense of normalcy with explosive crises galore.
From boxing heavyweights to teammate fights and Jurgen Klopp over and over again, the last 12 months have been fulfilled.
SunSport back in some of the craziest, strangest and most brutal clashes of the year. . .

Leon Bailey has put Manchester United and Arsenal on red alert by joining Will Salthouse’s sports control agency.
Bayer leverkusen’s star has been linked to movements to both Tottenham and Tottenham.
Everton reportedly sent scouts to keep an eye on the winger.
The Jamaican Bailey is valued at about 40 million pounds and will be represented through Phoenix Sports Management of his father Craig Butler and the USM of Salthouse, according to the Mail.
Rio Ferdinand tipped young players Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka to fire Arsenal with their ‘terrifying relationship’.
He said to FIVE: “I saw Martinelli in the Bournemouth season.
“He and Saka together have a bond and a date that already exists and I in the coming years will be a terrifying date. Fear!
“They paint so together. And Tierney supports him, too.
“But Martinelli, I have to say he’s going to be a wonderful footballer, the best player. “
Rob Holding insists arsenal are aiming for a position in Europe after starting their season with back-to-back victories.
He said: “Let’s cross our fingers, we can go up to the league and move on back to European punches and keep going. “
“These two victories are a great seasoning of trust for us.
“We went through this very complicated period, but as soon as we won, it gave us a boost.
“Now we’ve won and hopefully we can run a little, win trouble and climb the leaderboard. “
Manchester City will reopen their flat on Wednesday afternoon after Covid’s check was run negative.
Monday night’s game at Everton had to be cancelled for fears that the virus would be next to Pep Guardiola.
But now they can continue to plan Sunday’s match at Chelsea, as the Carabao Cup moves to Manchester United next Wednesday.
One City player said: “Manchester City FC can verify that first-team education will resume at the CFA this afternoon.
“The entire Covid 19 bubble was tested on Tuesday and the effects so far have not revealed any new positives.
“Safety remains our number one priority and the club will continue cautiously. “
Emile Smith Rowe revealed what Mikel Arteta said in the locker room at half-time before Arsenal beat Brighton 1-0 at Amex Stadium thanks to Alexandre Lacazette’s goal.
Smith Rowe has been so remarkable in the field that many Arteta won’t want to point out a new midfielder during the January move-in window.
But the 20-year-old says the Gunners’ boss’s speech was when he explained to them how the game would open up in the part of the moment and why it was vital to keep the faith.
Smith Rowe told the club’s official website: “Mikel told us the game would start in the middle of the moment, so we tried to maintain conviction, trust and you may see that we created more opportunities. Laca was given the purpose that he helped us. “
As explained below, the Premier League clash between Tottenham and Fulham was postponed after the Cottagers returned a series of positive COVID-19 tests on Tuesday.
However, the Premier League remains determined to continue the season despite the most recent peak of coronavirus that has led to an 18-case record between players and staff, with a total of 1479 people tested.
As a result, lately there are no two-week “disruption” plans, as some have commented.
This is the third Premier League match postponed after Newcastle vs Aston Villa in early December and Monday’s match between Manchester City and Everton.
The Premier League between Tottenham and Fulham was postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak on the Cottagers side.
It is understood that the match, which was scheduled for Wednesday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, has been suspended.
This comes after the Premier League announced that there were 18 cases of coronavirus between players and staff, with a total of 1479 people tested.
This is the number of positive effects since the start of weekly testing.
Arsenal legend Kevin Campbell believes his former club deserves to sign Brighton ace Yves Bissouma in january’s move-in window.
Bissouma inspired opposition to the Gunners in Tuesday’s clash at Amex Stadium that saw Mikel Arteta’s men win 1-0.
Campbell believes the Malian midfielder would be Thomas Partey’s ideal spouse in midfield.
The wonderful Arsenal told Amazon Prime: “I think Arsenal could use a player like him, that’s for sure.
“I think Thomas Partey wants a wife in the midfield with power and I think he would. “
As discussed below, Sokratis Papastathopoulos has been linked to an outing from Arsenal, and Fenerbahce is presented as a very likely destination in January.
Sokratis has been out of the Gunners’ Premier League and Europa League team, so a move would make sense.
During the summer, the Greek central defender connected with a reunion with compatriot Kostas Manolas in Naples.
There were also rumours in Greece that he would return to his country to sign for Olympiacos to update Rubén Semedo, who was related to a signing by Benfica.
However, Semedo remained there, as did Sokratis, who has made an appearance in the EFL Cup throughout the season.
Arsenal won a move amid reports suggesting they would be interested in signing Diego Costa.
Costa left Atletico Madrid on Tuesday after they both agreed to terminate their contract.
The Gunners are the renowned clubs that keep an eye on the star striker.
Northern Londoners might have to enter a bidding war with Premier League rivals Tottenham and Wolves.
But they are cheering after news that Atletico has taken steps to ensure that former Chelsea star does not sign up for any other La Liga team.
And Tuttosport claims that AC Milan has ruled an offer for Costa, even if it is for another striker to cover Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
As we all know, history has a fun way of repeating itself and that’s precisely what can happen to Arsenal.
Gunners are reportedly in Isco, who replaced Mesut Ozil at Real Madrid in 2013 when the German player moved to the Emirates.
And if he’s the offensive midfielder in north London, he’ll take Ozil’s place.
However, Arsenal face a difficult path to point to the Spanish international, as it seems more willing to move on to Seville and meet former Spanish under-20 coach Julen Lopetegui.
