Manager Arsene Wenger insists he will only bring "special" players to Arsenal, with a week remaining until the summer transfer window closes.
.
Striker Yaya Sanogo, a free transfer, is the Gunners' only signing so far. Arsenal are keen to sign Real Madrid's Karim Benzema and Angel Di Maria, and Newcastle's Yohan Cabaye.
.
Referencing his current squad following Saturday's 3-1 win at Fulham, he said: "They are special and if I want to add something it has to be special."
.
In recent months, the north London club have failed with a move for striker Luis Suarez, seen their £10m offer for midfielder Cabaye rejected and and have been linked with moves for strikers Wayne
.
Rooney of Manchester United and Gonzalo Higuain, who eventually moved from Real Madrid to Napoli.
.
Mathieu Flamini is believed to be in talks about returning to the club on a free transfer - the midfielder, who has been training at the club this summer, previously left the Gunners to join AC Milan in 2008.
.
They are also understood to be interested in bringing in a goalkeeper and a defender before the transfer window shuts at 23:00 BST on Monday, 2 September.
.
Arsenal have been criticised by Newcastle manager Alan Pardew about their pursuit of Cabaye, but Wenger refused to comment on speculation about his supposed targets.
.
"I will not give you any names, because it would be unfair for the players who play at another club," he said. "It could, as well, create some wrong hopes.
