Arsenal are reportedly satisfied with their business in January and will not look to make a signing in the final stages of the window.
The Gunners emphatically beat Manchester City 5-1 on Sunday in the Premier League at the Emirates, moving nine points ahead of the champions.
However, Mikel Arteta's side are still six points behind league leaders Liverpool, who boast the advantage of a game in hand.
Serious injuries to forwards Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus has forced Arteta to field a makeshift attack in recent weeks, but players such as Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard have faced criticism this season.
Sky Sports News report that the Gunners are not expected to do any business in regard to incomings or outgoings in what remains of the window, with journalist Gary Cotterill saying: "It is my understanding that there will be no ins and no outs today at Arsenal and indeed in the whole of January - no business, we understand, at Arsenal."
Arsenal's record of 49 goals scored in the Premier League is the second-best return in the top flight, and only Liverpool (56) have found the back of the net more often.

Do Arsenal have the squad needed to win the Premier League?
Despite not featuring since suffering a hamstring injury against Crystal Palace on December 21, Saka is still the Gunners' third-highest goalscorer in the Premier League with five goals.
Havertz's tally of nine league goals means he currently leads the way in the Arsenal squad in the top flight, but he falls far short of Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, who has found the back of the net on 21 occasions.
Fans of the North London outfit have long demanded that the club sign a striker, but despite being linked with the likes of Alexander Isak and Dusan Vlahovic, Arteta has persisted with Havertz in the forward line.
While some of Arsenal's attackers have faced scrutiny for their performances, perhaps chance creation should be more of an issue considering the team have only produced 39.8 xG in the league, the joint seventh-best tally in the division.

Should Arteta be concerned by his side's defence?
It should be noted that Arsenal have conceded 22 goals in the Premier League, and though that is the second-best record in the top flight, they only conceded on 29 occasions last term.
The Gunners have also only kept two clean sheets in their last 10 outings in all competitions and just one in their six most recent Premier League fixtures.
Arteta's side have proven difficult to beat this term given they are undefeated in their past 14 league matches, but they have drawn five times in that period.
It is difficult to see the gap to Liverpool narrowing in the second half of the campaign unless Arsenal's forwards can scale their output, and Arteta will undoubtedly need his defenders to avoid mistakes that could lead to more costly draws.
