Arsenal confident of major £45m January signing with hurdle set to be overcome

Arsenal are reportedly confident of completing a potential £45m permanent transfer for RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa during the January window. Mikel Arteta's side is prioritizing attacking reinforcements after offloading several forwards in the summer. Although The Sun reported that RB Leipzig are reluctant to sell the 21-year-old Norwegian international mid-season, The Daily Briefing reports that Arsenal remain optimistic about securing an agreement.

Alongside their interest in Nusa, Arsenal have also been tracking Juventus attacker Kenan Yildiz. Transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano noted that adding a striker remains another priority for Arteta, though that pursuit may wait until the summer transfer window rather than January.
