Mikel Arteta has said Arsenal's transfer plans have been impacted after more injuries to their midfield.

Martin Odegaard sustained a knock in Wednesday's clash with Aston Villa, while Mohamed Elneny and Thomas Partey are expected to miss multiple weeks.

Asked if injuries will affect his plans for deadline day, Arteta said: "Obviously, it has an impact because Thomas [Partey] is injured and we are a bit short in that position.

"We have Sambi and Granit can play there but we are looking at options in the market.

"The club has been super supportive to keep improving the squad and the team as we can, and if the right player is available and we can do it, we will try."
