Arsenal are still interested in introducing new legs to the team before the end of the January transfer window and are exploring the opportunity to land former Youth player Jaidon Anthony.
According to sources close to the club, Arsenal is reportedly targeting Bournemouth forward Jaidon Anthony as they look to bolster their squad for the second half of the season.

The Gunners currently sit at the top of the Premier League table, but are said to be keen on adding depth to their squad in order to maintain their lead.
Anthony, who is set to become a free agent in the summer, has struggled for game time at Bournemouth despite scoring three goals. This has led to rumors that the Cherries may be forced to sell him in the January transfer window.
It is worth noting that Anthony was previously part of Arsenal’s academy during his teens and is considered a good long-term addition by the club.
However, it is important to note that Arsenal will face competition for Anthony’s signature, with clubs such as Leicester City and German teams Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayer Leverkusen also said to be tracking the player.
These clubs may also be able to offer more playing time than Arsenal, which has had a settled front three this season.
