No business, we understand, at Arsenal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal\u2019s inactivity could prove costly in title pursuit<br \/>\nThe Gunners are presently without Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus with lengthy injuries. Saka has been tipped to return in March but may need more time to get up to speed.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus, on the other hand, is out for the rest of the campaign with a serious knee injury.<\/p>\n<p>There is now an over-reliance on Kai Havertz, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli in the final third.<\/p>\n<p>Ethan Nwaneri looks a huge prospect. The 17-year-old could get his fair share of playing time on the right wing in the coming weeks to compensate for Saka\u2019s absence.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the fans would ideally prefer a marquee signing before the deadline, given Raheem Sterling has been far from impressive since his loan switch from Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins seemed a good choice for the Gunners, but the door closed for his transfer as soon as Jhon Duran made the switch to Saudi with Al-Nassr.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal\u2019s lack of investment this winter could prove costly in their title pursuit. The Gunners can\u2019t afford any more injuries in the attacking department with options being limited.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Follow Us<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OFFICIAL NOW: Arsenal strike late hour deal to sign \u00a380m premier League striker, Verbal agreement reached after Intense Negotiation between the two parties \u2013 welcome to EMIRATE Arsenal are unlikely to enter the transfer market for new signings before the 11pm deadline, according to Sky Sports reporter Gary Cotterill.
