I opted for a thread instead 🤷🏻‍♂️ "herewego" -

Saliba | MA said that he has a "clear plan and ready to play with us" However there has been a lot of interest from three PL clubs, one interestingly being Liverpool, the other two being Brighton and West Ham.
With the recent transfers of Kolasinac and more recently Sokratis. Salibas chances of playing/starting has significantly improved and I will personally will be surprised if he doesn't feature from here on out.
Balogun | Liverpool have open talks with the player and his agent, he also has interest in Germany from BD & BM, agent holding out for best offer available. Balogun wants his chance at Arsenal and prefers to stay, but if he cannot be offered such this month, he will reconsider.
Nketiah's move, if it comes to materialise, plays a part in Baloguns game time and more importantly signing a new deal at Arsenal. #AFC
Willian | Possibly the worst Arsenal transfer in recent history?
In recent weeks his performances on and off the pitch (backroom attitude) has far from impressed MA. Thus far we are willing to let him leave this window, he has offers on the table from clubs - which surprised me.
Arsenal won't accept anything offered below £10.0m. Should such clubs offer that, then more fool them. The rumour of 300k P/W when he signed was false. It accumulates to around 110-15k including bonuses, so wages shouldn't be a problem for most clubs in a reasonable tier. #AFC
Bissouma | He is our primary target to partner Partey. We're looking to offer 15m initially, but realise halfway through the season such fee would be rejected. Brighton stand firm on 25m so the 10m difference should come to a compromise and both clubs/player should meet halfway.
Buendia | The creative midfielder we want and need. Terms with the player had been agreed for some time now and he is keen to join, after our game tomorrow this will progress quickly, fee is left to be agreed with Norwich, this won't be an issue. Can't come soon enough 🙌 #AFC
Ceballos | remember I mentioned "expect the unexpected" this is one of those situation that has changed in recent hours. RM are increasingly frustrated by lack of game time DC is getting and are considering recalling his loan early, as it's RM that are making this decision -
The early termination fee won't be necessary from us and something we are mutually agreeing with. With Isco increasingly looking likely to move to Sevilla this only increases the chances of an early loan termination. #AFC
Brandt | This is someone we have enquired about. Dortmund are willing to negotiate as we do have a good working relationship with the club and a "fair" price can come to conclusion, BUT Brandt needs convincing to move - for me instant ❌ if he needs convincing.
Ozil | This seems like a forever on going saga doesn't it? Well things could drastically change this month, Arsenal and MA are desperate to get Ozil of the wage book and free up huge funds for future incomings - Ozil is considering early termination and following Sokratis -
Towards Turkey in the destination of Fenerbaché for free. We cannot force him out the door early, he can only terminate his contract on his terms, however it is being discussed - more to follow in the next week's for clarification and a definitive answer.
We want players who want us! 🔴⚪

Reports to take with a pinch of salt -

Diego Costa ❌
Ryan Christie ❌
Isco ⚠️

Last but not least expect to see some loans for the Academy players this window -
Nelson, Willock, Chambers.
