Arsenal managing director Vinai Venkatesham has hinted the Gunners will have a quiet January transfer window. “We’ve just been through the transfer period in the summer, that’s what we always call the main transfer window,” Venkatesham told <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/europe" target="_blank">Bloomberg</a>. “We were very aggressive in that transfer window, signing a number of new players that we’re very excited about, predominately targeting young players that we believe can grow and develop with us over future years. “When we look forward to January, we’ll see when January comes. I’d say that we always treat the summer window as being the more strategic window.”

"With James, there was the will to sign him but we clashed with the resistance of Real Madrid,"&nbsp;Ancelotti told Radio Anch'io Sport - as per the <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7494399/Napoli-boss-Carlo-Ancelotti-claims-Real-Madrid-not-willing-let-James-Rodriguez-leave.html" target="_blank">Daily Mail</a>.
