Arsenal have reportedly been told that they will have to remain patient in order to sign Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Christopher Nkunku.
The Gunners are not short of options in the middle of the park, and Unai Emery has also been able to bring in Barcelona's Denis Suarez on a loan deal.
However, it appears that the North London outfit are still interested in signing Nkunku, although it appears that they may have to play a waiting game.
According to Get French Football, PSG will only agree to part ways with the 21-year-old if they are able to sign a replacement before Thursday's deadline.
The French giants have been linked with an approach for Everton's Idrissa Gueye, but the two clubs have been unable to agree a fee for the player.
