  1. 10 best-value signings of the January window

    Famously, the January transfer window is the more difficult of the two to operate in. It's hard to persuade other clubs to give up assets mid-season, sometimes even harder to convince players that they're better off making a move immediately rather than waiting until the following summer. But that doesn't mean deals are impossible, or that you can't get good value for your buck.

Mikel Arteta has also been asked about the former England star's future and whether he could stay on at Arsenal.

  7. Transfer grades for the biggest January deals

    January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule.
