Arsenal boss Arteta will 'actively look' at January signings amid injury crisis

The Gunners could be missing up to four defenders for their key match against high-flying Aston Villa at the Emirates on Tuesday. Jurrien Timber, Riccardo Calafiori, Ben White and Cristhian Mosquera were all absent for Arsenal's tense win over Brighton on Saturday which kept them two points clear of title rivals Manchester City at the top of the table. Arsenal spent more than £250 million ($337 million) on eight new arrivals during the summer transfer window and Arteta is prepared to bring in further recruits next month.
