Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger won't rule out a defensive signing this month.

The likes of Wayne Bridge and Taye Taiwo have been linked with moves to the Emirates Stadium during the transfer window as Wenger weighs up potential additions.

"At the moment nothing, we don't have a concrete case but we don't rule it out," Wenger told Arsenal Player. "[A loan defender is] the likely scenario, yes.

"[I am expecting a] quiet [market]. Europe is depressed and there is not a lot of money available, only some clubs who have exceptional resources.

"Let's say that clubs who are not linked with the economic environment at the moment can buy!"
