"Arsenal is working hard on signings... but current squad are good enough" - Arsene Wenger

Arsene Wenger has confirmed the club are working hard to bring in new signings but also backed the squad already at his disposal to deliver a title challenge this season.

The Gunners boss is to spend a penny in the transfer window, with the only significant arrival that of Yaya Sanogo, a France Under 20 striker, on a free.

The club have seen a number of record-breaking bids for players turned down and remain in the hunt for Luis Suarez despite an offer of £40million plus £1 rejected last week.

'We are still working on improving our squad,' the Frenchman told fans through an Emirates sponsored 'Google Hangout'. 'But we have a base of young players, players who started in the Premier League with us, like Wojciech Szczesny, Carl Jenkinson, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

'That is why what we do is unique. Look at our competitors, who in the last 10 years has started for them in the Premier League and is still there now?

'I believe my squad have a special bond and that they are on their way upwards, they are not over the hill, they will get better. I am confident we will be stronger next season.'

Wenger is in a rare position heading into the new season with the three clubs who finished above Arsenal last season all changing managers.
