Arteta said in his Friday’s press conference.

"Of course, we can improve the team, we will always be looking to do that as a club. This window is unpredictable, especially with the World Cup in the middle. We will have a look and will try to make the squad stronger.

"We will be active because you don't know what will happen in the World Cup, touch wood, everyone will be ok."

Arsenal have been linked with Shakhtar Donetsk's Mykhalo Mudryk as well as Orlando City's Facundo Torres and Palmeiras' Danilo. They were also very close to signing Douglas Luiz on deadline day but the deal fell away.

"We pick the players that we believe have the qualities and personalities to be helpful and successful at our club,"

Arteta also praised his players that will be representing their countries in the World Cup:
