Arsenal Open to Offers for Quartet Including Nwaneri Ahead of January Window

Arsenal are reportedly open to offers for four players in the January transfer window, including a potential loan move for 18-year-old Ethan Nwaneri. The midfielder has yet to start a Premier League game this season despite having broken into the first team at the age of 15.

According to the Daily Mail, Nwaneri could be offered an opportunity to leave if the right environment arises. Ben White's situation is also being monitored, while offers for Gabriel Martinelli could be considered amid reported interest from Saudi Arabia. The Brazilian has slipped down the pecking order following the summer arrival of Noni Madueke from Chelsea.

Gabriel Jesus is another player under consideration. The striker has been recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury sustained in last season's FA Cup third round. Jesus scored four goals in two games against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup and Premier League before suffering the setback, and Arsenal are aiming to have him fit before the window opens on January 1.

The report suggests that if a suitable offer arrives, the club will look to offload Jesus, who has been at the Emirates since 2022. If no deal is agreed, he is expected to leave next summer. Arsenal spent £250 million in the summer on players including Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze.

While the club are expected to trim the squad by moving on players with limited opportunities, it is also reported that 95 per cent of the current squad will remain unchanged. Arsenal return to Premier League action on Sunday, hosting arch rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the North London Derby at the Emirates Stadium.
