Elneny to join Arsenal
It is no surprise, therefore, that Arsenal has been linked with signing a defensive midfielder this January, with reports that a fee has already been agreed to for FC Basel’s Mohamed Elneny.

According to John Cross from Daily Mirror, the player is set to undergo his medical soon and the deal will be announced once the transfer window opens.
Egyptian midfielder Elneny is a ideal fit for Arsenal as he is only 23, has good energy, is good value and his wages may also be cheaper than the likes of Mathieu Flamini, Mikel Arteta and Tomas Rosicky who are all on big money.
He could thus be an excellent short-term replacement for Coquelin while the Frenchman recovers from his injury and also remain a versatile midfielder for the future.
Arsenal boss Wenger has been criticised in the past for not strengthening that area of his squad but in light of recent injuries, he may be forced to bring in reinforcements this January.
While he is far from the finished article he has shown great ability to dictate play from midfield as well as terrific work rate and would likely improve rapidly under Wenger’s tutelage.

Despite Elneny’s imminent arrival, Southampton midfielder Victor Wanyama still remains very much part of Arsenal’s summer plans.
