Arsène Wenger admits Arsenal could have to get “creative” in the transfer market if Mikel Arteta’s ankle injury proves serious.
The full extent of Arteta’s problem is yet to be determined but the Arsenal manager accepts to lose the defensive midfielder for a long period would be a blow, and may force him to bring in cover before the closing of the transfer window. Real Madrid’s Sami Khedira and William Carvalho at Sporting are reported targets.
