Arsenal manager, Unai Emery has said the North London team will sign a center-back once the January transfer window opens.
Arsenal play Qarabag FK on Thursday in a Europa League clash and Emery thinks the Gunners need a defender to beef up the squad.
“I think if we can take one player to help us at center-back, I think it’s a good option,” Emery said.
“The transfer window is not easy. Laurent Koscielny is coming back and for the team, it’s very important he is coming back.
“Then we are going to wait and see how Konstantinos Mavropanos is improving with his injuries because he is also a center-back who can help us.”
He revealed that “Another option we can play with two, with three, and (full-backs) Nacho Monreal and (Stephan) Lichtsteiner can play in this position.
“I prefer to us, if we can, a specialist center-back.”
