Arsenal: The 3 most likely transfers Mikel Arteta will make in January
By Kian Long
#3 Potential but not as likely – Joao Felix (Atletico Madrid)
This one seems like more a dream, but it could definitely happen. Reports are suggesting that Joao Felix of Atletico Madrid is looking for a new club after falling down the pecking order under Diego Simeone.
Like Zaniolo, Felix is another versatile forward. Primarily playing as a centre forward, the Portugal international can also drift out wide and play as a left-sided winger if need be. This can only mean great things for Mikel Arteta. Not only would Felix be the ideal replacement while Gabriel Jesus is injured, but he also adds a much needed sense of healthy competition to the indestructible Arsenal front three.
Arsenal are certainly interested in Joao Felix, and why wouldn’t they be?
