Arteta Arsenal transfer plans hit by FFP

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has a transfer headache on two fronts this winter.

The Gunners head coach is aware of his team's need to improve, both for the short and long-term.

However, after racking up a net spend of around £400 million from the past three years, Arsenal are hitting FFP limits.

Per The Standard, the Gunners are pushing to sign a top centre forward in the winter or summer.

Fans want to see a forward signed who can improve the team's chance conversion.

In addition, Arteta has concerns regarding his midfield, with Jorginho and Mohamed Elneny out of contract in the summer and Thomas Partey's deal expiring in 18 months.
