Arsenal targeting one marquee signing in January

Arsenal are expected to make one marquee signing when the transfer window reopens at the beginning of 2025.

The north London giants have had a mixed start to the current campaign and they are currently third in the table.

The club are six points adrift of league leaders Liverpool, but the Merseyside giants have a game in hand too.

Arsenal need to be supremely consistent in the coming months to close the gap and the board could make a big move this winter.

The Gunners hierarchy are prepared to back manager Mikel Arteta with funds to recruit a marquee winger in January.

The club have been linked with plenty of names, but Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams could be one of the top winter targets.

Williams was holding out for a move to Barcelona last summer, but he has changed his stance over the past few months.

The Spaniard has opened the door for a Premier League move and Arsenal could swoop for his services in the New Year.

He can be signed for his release clause worth £48 million.
