Mikel Arteta opens up on failed Douglas Luiz pursuit

Douglas Luiz failed to complete a move to Arsenal. Mikel Arteta has no regrets about missing out on Douglas Luiz. The Brazilian midfielder was heavily linked with a move to the Emirates on transfer deadline day, but the club failed to get a deal across the line. Speaking recently, as relayed by The Irish Times, the Spanish manager said that he's happy with the players at his disposal. "We have to bring in the players we feel are right for the team and the club, but we didn’t manage to do that. [With] what happened in the last week or so, probably everybody was expecting we could do something with the departures we had," said Arteta. He added: "We cannot forget what we did early. We are happy with the squad we have. The board has pushed the boat very, very far to accommodate the situation we have." Arteta said that picking up Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko early in the summer has helped the Gunners. "What I can guarantee you is it helps. When you know the players, when you know what you can expect from them, and they come in and show such an attitude and perform straight away, there is an impact," said Arteta. The Spaniard added that he's ready to put his trust in younger players to address the gaps in the squad. "Believe more in the players that we have, look after them better and give them confidence. They have the ability to do it and that’s what we’ll do," said Arteta. Arsenal have enjoyed a perfect start to the new campaign, winning their opening five games. They travel to Manchester United on Sunday, hoping to continue their perfect start to the season. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Bhargav × Feedback Thank You!
