Arteta finally drops the hint on the exact position he will sign before end of the summer

Arsenal manager has now dropped the hint that he is going to sign a top midfielder before the close of this summer transfer window.

A lot of businesses have gone down at the Emirates Stadium, including exits but that has not come to an end as the Spanish boss l, after the 2-0 win against Crystal Palace on Friday night said he expects to sign a top midfielder.

Speaking after Arteta’s comments, Neville said: “I can only think central midfield, if Xhaka got injured or Partey got injured. That could cause a problem. I can’t think of anywhere else.

“Zinchenko could go in there…but that’s the only I can think of. Maybe right-back. But they’ve got right-back…Tomiyasu is going to come back.

“I think a really top midfield player – even tonight Xhaka got booked, I always think he’s going to let you down at some point. You should plan for that now because you know it’s coming. If they could get another midfield player – it’s been a good transfer window anyway – but that would finish it off.”

Mikel Arteta handed league debuts to summer signings Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus, who both impressed against the Eagles while William Saliba also got his official debut.
