Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is planning a deadline day clearout.

The London Evening Standard says having completed their key signings Wenger is now free to trim his squad as required, and he is to do so with a degree of ruthlessness.

Joel Campbell has already been sent out on loan, Calum Chambers and Serge Gnabry seem set to follow and Jack Wilshere's immediate future appears to be away from the Emirates.

Arsenal could claim to be London's most successful club in the window so far. With mere hours left on the clock for their rivals they have identified and acquired players in the three areas they needed to strengthen, even if the new centre-back has not been formally announced.
