Arsenal struggling to land players

It’s unlikely Arsenal will launch a move for Draxler though after Arsene Wenger admitted he is struggling to find the right players to sign. Following the Gunners’ 8-0 re-season victory over Norwegian side Viking on Friday,


 Wenger confirmed the money is there to make more signings this summer, but the players he wants aren’t available. "It’s not the prices, it’s the players," Wenger said. "At the moment I’m focused on the players we have.

Today we didn’t have [Aaron] Ramsey, [Granit] Xhaka, Alexis [Sanchez] - he will play on Sunday [against City].

"We still have [Mesut] Özil at home, and [Olivier] Giroud and [Laurent] Koscielny too. We also have young players who came on and did well. "We do not have to panic but we are on alert in the transfer market so that we can make the right move when the opportunity comes up."

Wenger added: "The money is never a problem if you have to pay what is requested.

"The price of a player is down to four ingredients. One is the talent, two his age, three is how much you expect him to improve your team, and four his resale value. "If he ticks all four boxes then the price is not that important.

"You have to find the player."
