"We have nothing to announce", Wenger said.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was straight to the point at his pre-match press conference yesterday, as he suggested that rival teams' failures more often than not, go under the radar. "To tell you if he will do it [sign], I don't know".

Will Chelsea sign Olivier Giroud before the winter transfer window shuts?

Wenger says France global Giroud, who was linked with Borussia Dortmund this week but is likely to stay, is set to be in contention for the game after recovering from his hamstring injury that has kept him out since the middle of December but the clash will come too soon for Welbeck. It is far from close.

"We will still recruit someone, it's possible".

Chelsea have been linked with a number of players in recent weeks but Edin Dzeko has emerged as a prime target with the Blues in talks with Roma about signing the 31-year-old.

"Maybe one or two young players out on loan but the experienced side of the squad stays".

According to Sky Deutschland, there is a sense that Arsenal may be playing poker with Giroud. But, it seems the negotiations have not gone well, with reports circulating that Arsenal and Dortmund are now back to negotiating a direct sale of just the Gabonese speedster.

"The player will want Arsenal to sort this out as soon as possible".

That means Giroud's only chance to go - he is rumoured to want more regular football between now and the World Cup to secure his place in the France squad - is if Aubameyang or another forward arrives in north London before Wednesday's deadline. "We'll find out today, but the suggestion was he will be", he said. He is an important player and every player has a lot of respect for him. "We have to see about that".
