Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has got more than just one concern at the moment. The French boss must sign new stars to reinforce the squad and also secure new deals with a few key players.
The North Londoners have been in shaky form at the moment and have relied heavily on star striker Olivier Giroud to earn crucial points.
The Gunners’ boss has recently confirmed that the club are looking to extend the contracts of veteran players like Per Mertesacker and Santi Cazorla (via Mirror).
As far as the transfers are concerned, Wenger is lining up a move worth 20 million pounds (€23million) to hire the services of Nice right back Ricardo Peireira (Daily Star).
In all fairness, Arsenal must secure the signing of the 23-year-old Portuguese international this month. They lack quality depth in the right back position and will suffer if first choice star Hector Bellerin gets injured again.
Wenger does not trust the likes of Debuchy and Jenkinson in the right back position and mainly utilized Gabriel when the Spaniard was out injured.
Gabriel is mainly a central defender and does not have the pace to help the attack if deployed in the fullback position. Moreover, he has been inconsistent as a CB as well when Mustafi was out.
Ricardo Peireira is the perfect man to solve the dilemma. The former Porto player can play on either side of the defense and has been utilized as a right midfielder as well.
This season, he has been in top form for Ligue 1 leaders Nice. In 15 league appearances, Ricardo has scored 1 goal and provided 3 assists.
In your opinion, should Arsene splash the cash to sign Peireira from Nice.

What is the point of speculating.
Wenger could sign Aguero, Messi, Ronaldo and Neymar and he would still end up finishing fourth.
He has had it – passed his best ten years ago yet still clings to the belief he can lead Arsenal to PL glory.
Wenger is a joke – a dinosaur who should have left years ago.
He places his ego and the desire to prove everyone wrong before the welfare of the club. Trouble is, he proves everyone RIGHT.
He has got to go…
I will prefer to send Wenger back to club and find one post to work with new coach the club will take in summer to continue for the man who was in charge for 20 years in reigns in arsenal football club career and is doing wonderful job for the club and every supporter appropriate for him for what is done for the club in his career and please find another person to replace him in summer to continue with their players bcos we need new challenges in new year to take advantage of the club fame and please we want to win champions’ league,super cup and world clubs cup.
