It saw Mikel Arteta admit that a few moves could take place before the transfer deadline day as “there are some conversations” still taking place. The Arsenal boss further added that the club is trying to find solutions for players who aren’t happy with their minutes and things could change.

"Well, there are some conversations at the moment going on. I spoke with all of the players about their own situation because they are all aware of the minutes that they are playing and they want to improve their situation. I am willing to help them. Some of them the club is willing to help them and we will try to find a solution at the end. But I don’t know whether it’s going to be the case or not," Arteta said at a press conference.
