Mikel Arteta used to play for Manchester City, which could help Arsenal get one of the biggest football stars in Europe. After losing at Newcastle on Saturday and then at Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday, the Spaniard’s team is on a roll right now.
They haven’t won in the Premier League since October 5 and are now seven points behind Liverpool in the race for the title when they play Chelsea on Sunday.
And because the Gunners don’t have a top-notch attacker right now, there is growing rumors that they will try to add a forward in January.

Mikel Arteta used to play for Manchester City, which could help Arsenal get one of the biggest football stars in Europe. After losing at Newcastle on Saturday and then at Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday, the Spaniard’s team is on a roll right now.
They haven’t won in the Premier League since October 5 and are now seven points behind Liverpool in the race for the title when they play Chelsea on Sunday.
And because the Gunners don’t have a top-notch attacker right now, there is growing rumors that they will try to add a forward in January.
What Mikel Arteta told the Arsenal players in the Inter locker room before the game against Chelsea
Mikel Arteta sends an angry message to Chelsea, even though Arsenal has lost two games in a row.
Leroy Sane has been a key player for Bayern Munich since he moved there from City in 2020. He has helped the team win three Bundesliga titles, as well as the European Super Cup and the FIFA World Club Cup. But now that Michael Olise has joined the team this summer, he’s not as popular with Vincent Kompany.
Sky Germany says that the 28-year-old is now looking to move back to England, with Arsenal and Manchester United being the top teams that want to sign him. During his three years at Manchester City, they won two Premier League titles, as well as the FA and League Cups.
The most important thing is that he worked closely with Arteta, who was Pep Guardiola’s teacher at the time. And just this summer, the German player talked a lot about how much he influenced him.

“It was great.” “I was glad to work with him because he helped me a lot at City,” he said. There were a lot of one-on-one talks about how I can improve, my skills and weaknesses. We worked hard.
“He helped me make huge progress, that’s what he gave me.” Still, I think about that and use it in my game: where to stand and how to act in certain spots. “Thank you.”
Sane got 35 goals in 139 games for City. Since then, he has scored 51 goals in 185 games for Bayern. His team is said to value him at £50m, even though his contract ends next summer.
