Jorginho made the move on dead-line day from Chelsea with Arteta said to be a huge reason.
With such additions to the squad, Arsenal will surely look to go the distance.
Southampton
The Saints spent €63.2M in the transfer window with 5 players adding to the Southampton squad.
Orsic, Alcarez, Bree, Sulemana and Onuachu sealed moves to the Premier League side from across Europe.
Onuachu is a hot target this season as the striker brings bags of goal with him from Genk.
Official, confirmed. Southampton have signed Paul Ounachu and Kamaldeen Sulemana on permanent moves. ⚪️🔴 #SaintsFC

The Nigerian international left Genk this season scoring 16 goals in 19 league appearances and would be itching to continuing his form with the Saints.
The other acquisitions have been a positive one as well with Southampton staring down the barrel.
Southampton need all of them to fire as they hope to avoid the drop after being bottom for a while.
Chelsea
The Blues have hit the jackpot in the transfer window as they top the list with €329.5M spent.
Enzo Fernandez tops the list as the WC winning-Argentina younger became the most expensive EPL signing with his move.
Apart from him, 7 other players made the shift to London in Fofana, Badiashile, Santos, Mudryk, Madueke, Gusto and Felix (loan).
Chelsea’s struggles in the Premier League ensured they made the signings under new owner, Boehly.
The Blues’ expenditure is nearly half of what the entire Premier League has spent in this window.
