Arsenal are currently top of the Premier League by a considerable distance. There’s several reasons for it - Mikel Arteta’s finely tuned tactical approaches, team spirit and the quality of the players at their disposal.
Despite this, their squad could stand to grow even stronger before the January transfer window slams shut. The Gunners have been linked with a plethora of brilliant players over the past few weeks, with speculation being rife. As such, we’ve put together this XI that Arsenal could end up with - if the transfer rumours are to be believed. Additionally, we will also be including a few players who are likely to stay put in North London.
It’s unlikely that Arsenal will sign all of the players on this list - just one of them could cost over £100 million! However, they could potentially sign some of them - who would you like to see the Gunners snap up?
1. GK: Aaron Ramsdale

2. RB: Ivan Fresneda
Ivan Fresneda has been on Arsenal’s radar for a while now. At just 17, he has all the potential in the world to become one of football’s leading full backs. | Getty Images
3. CB: Jakub Kiwior
The 22-year-old Jakub Kiwior is a fantastic talent who is currently going under the radar somewhat. Currently at Spezia, it seems that he is destined for bigger and better things. | Getty Images
4. CB: William Saliba
William Saliba has been an absolute revelation at the back for Arsenal. Currently one of the best centre backs in the league, it’s inconceivable to even imagine him losing his spot in the starting eleven. | Arsenal FC via Getty Images
