Mirror Football reports that Arsenal are looking again at a possible move when the winter transfer window opens, with Mikel Arteta seeking much-needed additional options in attack. The complication is Bournemouth’s position. They are naturally said to be reluctant to lose Kroupi midway through the season.

There is also the fact that the player is said to be keen on a move to PSG rather than a move within the Premier League. Whether those positions move closer together once the window opens remains to be seen, but for now the selling club’s reluctance, followed by the player’s ambitions, are the clearest obstacles to any January deal. This does seem like it will be a story with legs, however. Photo by Mike Hewitt/Getty Images
