Sunday's Arsenal transfer talk news roundup: Carlos Soler, Ryan Christie, Christian Eriksen

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Arsenal on Sunday, January 3.

The January transfer window is now open, with Arsenal continuing to be linked with a host of big names.

The Gunners have endured a torrid first half of the season and have been tipped to bolster their ranks this month - in addition to offloading out-of-favour players - in a bid to turn their campaign around.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal lining up January move for Carlos Soler?

Arsenal could reportedly attempt to bring Valencia attacker Carlos Soler to the Emirates Stadium during the January transfer window.

The 24-year-old has been in impressive form for Los Che during the 2020-21 campaign, scoring six times and registering five assists in 13 appearances in all competitions.

Soler has a contract at Mestalla until June 2023, but the club's financial problems mean that he is likely to be made available for purchase if a suitable offer arrives.

According to El Desmarque, Arsenal are 'keeping an eye' on the Spaniard and could be ready to test Valencia's resolve with an offer before the end of the winter transfer window.

Los Che are currently down in 18th position in La Liga, but Soler has been in strong form for Javi Gracia's side, scoring five goals and providing four assists in 12 appearances.

The attacker has previously been linked with a move to Manchester United.



Arsenal showing interest in Celtic midfielder Ryan Christie?

Celtic midfielder Ryan Christie has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Arsenal.

The Gunners are expected to prioritise reducing their wage bill during the January window having been unable to part ways with a number of squad players in 2020.

However, with the club sitting in the bottom half of the Premier League standings, Mikel Arteta may be provided with some funds for at least one new signing.

According to 90 min, the Spaniard is taking an interest in Christie, who has starred for club and country over the past 18 months.

While the Scotland international is regarded as a key player at the Glasgow giants, the 25-year-old has just 18 months left on his contract.

The report suggests that Christie, who also has admirers in the likes of Leicester City, is yet to indicate that he wishes to pen fresh terms at Celtic.
