Arsenal news and transfers LIVE: Zakaria ‘offer’ made, £22m Arthur Melo deal, Tielemans interest

Welcome to football.london‘s Arsenal live blog on Wednesday, January 12.

The Gunners return to action tomorrow evening as they travel to Anfield to face Liverpool in the Carabao Cup semi-final first-leg, after last week’s clash was postponed.

Mikel Arteta will be desperate to see a response from his squad after they were dumped out of the FA Cup at the hands of Nottingham Forest at the weekend.

Arteta’s attention, though, might not just be on the match on Thursday night, with the transfer window now in full swing.

Arsenal continue to be linked with a host of new players this month and we are expected to hear plenty more on possible deals throughout the day.

So, with all that in mind, stay tuned to football.london for the very latest Arsenal-related transfer news in our dedicated live blog below.
