Arsenal suffered a tough result in the English Premier League on Tuesday, pulling to a 2-2 draw with Southampton and now their top spot in the EPL is up for grabs and after losing Mathieu Flamini to a red card and having Aaron Ramsey have an injury set back, transfer talk is heating up and names like Julian Draxler, Toni Kroos, Demba Ba and Arturo Vidal could be options.

According to ESPN.com, Draxler is the top target for the team and things appear to be moving in that direction, as manager Arsene Wenger said the club would have news on a moves coming up. Various reports have the club looking at grabbing Draxler and it comes after they lost Theo Walcott for the season to an injury and they need a boost up front and reports say a deal could be coming soon.

The match on Tuesday was a disappointment away from Emirates and now with the setback for Ramsey, the Gunners may get a bit desperate to get things right. According to the report, Ramsey will be out for an indefinite period of time and he was expected to get back into action on Tuesday in the EPL match and that came after he had a thigh issue back in December against West Ham United in a win.

"Unfortunately he had a setback in training," Wenger is quoted as saying by the Premier League. "Hopefully he's not out too long but he won't be available for Sunday's game [against Crystal Palace]." Wenger said: "I hope we have something to tell you [on transfers], but not tonight. We lose a few players now and I have to think about it."
