Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is still actively looking at late-window opportunities, as recently confirmed by Mikel Arteta.
Last week, Arteta admitted that Arsenal could still make another addition, despite the Gunners already spending north of £200 million on six major signings, but reports suggest they'll have to sell players first.
Fabio Vieira, Karl Hein, Albert Sambi Lokonga, Reiss Nelson, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Jakub Kiwior have been mentioned as nominees for the Emirates Stadium exit door, and an exit for one of either Gabriel Martinelli or Leandro Trossard hasn't been completely ruled out either.

Trossard, in particular, has entered the final year of his contract, and Arsenal will likely want to make money off his sale rather than lose him for free in 2026.
If that happens, Arsenal could look to target another left-winger instead of Eberechi Eze, who's in talks to join north London rivals Tottenham.
"Arsenal also hold an interest in Eze, and a late-window move can’t be discounted. However, the desire to give Ethan Nwaneri minutes at No.10 this season has led to some hesitation within the club as to whether to add another central attacker," wrote talkSPORT in their live blog [Thursday, 10:56].
"Arsenal are also focused on outgoings. They could look to bring in another left-winger instead if Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli depart. Both players could well remain, but Trossard is the more likely of the pair to leave should any exit materialise."
In his latest press conference, Arteta suggested Arsenal do still need to strengthen after an already-productive summer.
"It's not just supporting me, of course, but supporting the team, supporting the vision, the idea and especially the ambition and the level that we are playing, the competition we have and what we expect to do," Arteta said when asked if Arsenal have backed him this summer.
"So, we have to improve the squad, we have to improve the quality and depth of that squad, and we certainly have done it in a really great way."
Chances to add the right player could still emerge over this final fortnight of the window, and Arteta is known to seriously value versatility as a key trait when identifying most transfer targets.
Taking this into account, it isn't surprising to see them being linked with a last-gasp swoop for £140,000-per-week PSG utility man Lee Kang-in.
The South Korea international can operate as an attacking midfielder, on the right, on the left and even as a striker when required - with Lee even playing as a right-back during PSG early-season 3-1 win over Lille last term.
The 24-year-old was a regular under Luis Enrique in 2024/2025, but didn't make a single appearance in the Champions League from the quarter-finals onwards - with Lee starting just 19 Ligue 1 games.

PSG's Kang-in Lee lifts the Super Cup.
He's now "seriously considering" a Parc des Princes exit, according to CaughtOffside, and the outlet reports that Arsenal have made "direct contact" over signing Lee as we slowly approach the summer deadline.
Despite not being a firm starter week in, week out, Enrique has tipped the former Real Mallorca ace for a bright future.
"Lee, he's small but he can play up front, behind, go inside, on the side, defend, score. He's a complete player," said the PSG boss in 2023.
"He's a big signing for the club. When we signed him, we knew his potential. He still needs to improve but he's working well."
