Arsenal will already be planning for next summer's transfer window barely a week after this one ended.

The Gunners made eight signings over recent months while a dozen players departed during the same period. There are unlikely to be as many moves mid-season when the window re-opens this winter, but the club have previously done business during January, albeit not since 2023.

Debast decision

Arsenal are reportedly one of three Premier League clubs considering a possible move for Zeno Debast during the winter transfer window . CaughtOffside reports to have been informed by sources close to the agents industry that Manchester United have the centre-back under consideration.

Guler no-go

Fabrizio Romano says Arsenal were planning to pursue Arda Guler this summer before Andrea Berta became their new sporting director. In a new YouTube video , he indicates they considered the possibility last autumn (internally) if Real opened the door to an exit, which they ultimately did not, meaning any move was a non-starter.
