Arsenal manager Unai Emery says he will only sign a centre-back if he can improve the squad.
The Gunners were shoddy at best in defence last season and supporters are desperate for the club to sign a quality centre-back.
But Emery insists he has enough centre-backs heading into the new season.
Speaking after a win over Angers, Emery said: "We want to be strong in our defensive line, working with the players we have now.
"We are speaking about the centre backs, but we have a lot of centre backs, we have good centre backs, and if we can sign one more centre back, it is because he is clearly better than we have. Because at the moment we have six.
"We are in different positions with some players because Mavropanos has his injury and we are continuing to see that situation. We have until August 8, and we need to speak over these few days about how we can be, and how we can close our squad."
