Arteta disappointed with Arsenal's work in the winter transfer market

Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has expressed disappointment that the Gunners were unable to make any signings during the winter transfer window, though he praised the club's discipline.

Quote. "We had a clear intention, which always arises when the transfer window opens, to explore opportunities to strengthen our squad.

Player injuries have affected us, but we didn't achieve our goals in the market. We're disappointed, but we also fully understand that we want to bring in only certain players, and we have to be very disciplined about that. I think that's how it went," Arteta said ahead of Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semifinal second leg against Newcastle.

Reminder. After a dominant victory over Manchester City over the weekend, Arsenal, with 50 points, secured second place in the Premier League. On Wednesday, February 5, the Gunners will play the second leg against Newcastle in the EFL Cup.
