Arsenal boss Emery pushed about Saliba deal: We want to...

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has hopes of seeing new signings soon arrive.

After today's victory over Fiorentina, St Etienne defender William Saliba's name came up in Charlotte.

"I am patient because we want to choose the best solution," replied Emery.

"Some players are very expensive and we are waiting for this possibility because we don't want now to go to the second line of players. We are waiting and really we have very good young players.

"We are aware we also need to improve some areas in this squad. But I only want to sign three or four players only if we can be sure they are coming to improve our squad.

"There are a lot of names and the club is working. Edu is very close to me every day and also with the Kroenke family.

"I want to send a message to all our supporters that we want to [build] the best squad possible."
