The news of the blueprint of the January transfer 2026 at Arsenal is emerging. The club charges towards the title in the Premier League. Mikel Arteta is looking more at the attacking depth than a direct Viktor Gyiokeres competitor. The splash by the Gunners on Sporting ace has made them lose interest in another centre-forward. This will channel the money to a left winger to strengthen their fluid front line. The pivot has tackled the weaknesses that were revealed in the last few draws as width has fallen short of the Eberechi Eze flair.
Rodrygo and His Dream
At the heart of Arsenal’s “spectacular” ambitions lies Real Madrid’s Rodrygo Goes. The news is that the 25-year-old Brazilian sensation is eyed as a marquee addition of January transfer of Arsenal. Football Talk reports the club has “penciled him in” for next summer. They value his versatility—capable of starring on the left or centrally—with 17 goals last season. A £80-90 million bid could tempt Madrid, especially if Rodrygo seeks regular starts amid competition from Mbappé and Vinícius. Arteta views him as the “world-class” upgrade to ignite their title push, blending technical brilliance with Premier League adaptability.
Dortmund Raid: Adeyemi’s Arsenal Preference
In a surprise twist, Arsenal are plotting a raid on Borussia Dortmund for Karim Adeyemi. The explosive 23-year-old German international who favors the Emirates over Manchester United. ESPN notes Adeyemi’s agent has held talks, with Dortmund demanding €70 million for the speedster who’s notched three goals this term despite injury setbacks. His blistering pace and directness echo Saka’s right-wing threat, potentially forming a devastating duo. Sources hint at a player swap. Leandro Trossard to Dortmund—to sweeten the deal, easing Arsenal’s wage bill while facilitating the move.
Squad Impact and Timeline
This two-fold chase is an indicator of the transition of Arteta: depth instead of stars, scouting with January deepening. Jamie Gittens is another Dortmund jewel, who looms as an economical option. This would restructure the attack at Arsenal but the FFP looms. The young people fantasize about Rodrygo samba or rockets by Adeyemi making their lives full of greatness.
