Mikel Arteta confirmed that Arsenal actively wanted to bring an attacker before the transfer deadline on Monday, but refused to discuss reports about Ollie Watkins Aston Villa.
The proposals offered by Gunners with £ 60 million for the English internationaler only appeared for a few hours before the Villa’s Crunch League of Celtict on Wednesday night, a game in which Watkins scored and missed a penalty in a 4-2 victory.

Arsenal, most of this term, used Kai Havertz in position number nine, although Gabriel Jesus went to the goalkeeper as a striker before suffered a knee injury in the season.
Many Arsenal fans would like to see how the club signs an experienced striker to increase their offer for the title, but Arteta refused to reveal the type of player they are trying to hire.
“We don’t really look at the market in these conditions,” he added. “We look at what we have on the team, what we miss and who can bring something that could potentially improve us.
“Regardless of the age or background they have, it is a real belief that a player can be really good for us.”
City next to arsenal
Arsenal faces Manchester City on Sunday in a node that has been a conflict between the two best Premier League teams in recent seasons.
But City was fourth place after the insidious campaign, in which he previously displayed a fiery draw of 2-2 with Arsenal at Etihada in Etihad.
Asked about the relationship between the sides, Arthte said, “Normally – these are two teams trying to win.”
Victory, he added: “It would be a big boost for us. Winning big games is always something special. Every time we play a big game against our rivals, it brings something extra.”
Raya take care of the artillery
Homemade may be without the goalkeeper of David Ray’s first election, who missed the victory of the Champions League in Midweek in Girona due to an indefinite injury.
He waxed his net, but he looked nervous in a completely unconvincing screen.
“David, we’re still uncertain,” said Artea, who confirmed that Ben White had remained aside. “We have another session tomorrow. We have 48 hours so we will have to see. “
