Mikel Arteta confirms Arsenal want more signings

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has acknowledged that the club are looking for more signings before the transfer deadline on September 1.

The Gunners have made five signings in Marquinhos, Matt Turner, Fabio Vieira, Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko this summer.

They have already made a huge outlay of around £120m, but Arteta has said that the club are still hoping to do more business in the transfer market.

He said earlier today: "We are still hoping to do something else if the market allows. You have seen some movement in the last few days as well. We want to get the perfect balance and the plan we wanted from the beginning."

Arsenal have had a fantastic pre-season with five victories. They recently beat Sevilla by an outstanding 6-0 scoreline at the Emirates Stadium.

Jesus was the pick of the players with a hat-trick. The Brazilian looks on course to make a big impact leading the line for the Gunners.
