Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is not planning on making further additions in January as he believes the returning Danny Welbeck is better than anyone available on the market.
Wenger made his first foray in the current window on Thursday with the signing of Basel midfielder Mohamed Elneny.
The Frenchman, whose side are top of the Premier League on goal difference from Leicester City, was quizzed on his plans for the remainder of January in his media briefing on Friday.
But Wenger believes it is more important to get the likes of Welbeck, who has been out since April with a knee injury, and Jack Wilshere (ankle) off the treatment table and back on the pitch.

Wenger made his first foray in the current window on Thursday with the signing of Basel midfielder Mohamed Elneny.
The Frenchman, whose side are top of the Premier League on goal difference from Leicester City, was quizzed on his plans for the remainder of January in his media briefing on Friday.
But Wenger believes it is more important to get the likes of Welbeck, who has been out since April with a knee injury, and Jack Wilshere (ankle) off the treatment table and back on the pitch.
"Ideally, personally, I would prefer to have the players back from injuries [rather than go back into the market]," he said.
"Welbeck, for example, who has been out since April last year is now two or three weeks away. I am confident I won't find a better player than Welbeck on the market. I prefer to have the injured players back with everyone available."Culled from www.omnisport.com
