Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will be supported by the board in the January market.
Arteta is fighting to quell emerging disquiet from members of his squad amid the club's dreadful season thus far.
The Daily Mail says in the short-term, at least, the Arsenal hierarchy are unequivocally backing the Spaniard despite their alarming slide down the table.
Funds will be made available to Arteta to strengthen the team when the transfer window re-opens, with a creative midfielder a priority for the Gunners.
But there are growing concerns that a number of discontented players within the playing group are posing further problems for the Spaniard that run deeper than the difficulties he is having to cope with on the pitch.
