The January transfer window is now just a matter of days away.
As Arsenal have a realistic chance of finishing in the top four for the first time since the 2015/16 season, Edu may wish to dip into the transfer market to help strengthen Mikel Arteta's chances of securing Champions League football in north London.
Meanwhile, some players have uncertain futures at the Emirates Stadium.
The likes of Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah are coming to the end of their contracts at the club and may well benefit from a January move, whilst Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's off-field disciplinary issues continue to see him linked with other top European clubs.
With that all in mind, let's take a look at some of the latest rumours surrounding the club.
