Mikel Arteta has revealed that his transfer priorities will shift to focus on outgoings before he continues to invest in his Arsenal side following the arrival of Oleksandr Zinchenko.<\/p>\n

The Gunners have signed 5 new faces for the senior side so far this summer, with Zinchenko joining Gabriel Jesus, Matt Turner, Marquinho and Fabio Vieira in arriving at the Emirates Stadium since the transfer window opened.<\/p>\n

That, combined with the seven returning loanees, has left Mikel Arteta with a bloated squad ahead of the new season, demonstrated by the fact that only Reuell Walters from the youth sides was taken on the pre-season tour of the USA.<\/p>\n

So often a chance for youth talents to showcase their ability, the tour has instead become a procession of ensuring minutes around the squad even for those clearly outside the Spanish boss\u2019s plans this season.<\/p>\n

They are not alone in this regard: across London both Tottenham and Chelsea are in similar situations.<\/p>\n

Arsenal defender Reuell Walters is the only player from the academy to join the first-team on the tour of the USA.<\/p>\n
