Robin van Persie will be out until at least April (and very possibly through the end of the season) as the ligament damage he suffered on his ankle during international duty has proven worse than originally anticipated.
Despite his admirable, if unorthodox, efforts to regain fitness, Arsenal will be without their most effective attacking player. This is doubly concerning for the young Gunners, who have traditionally had trouble finishing, and who are without the significant striking presence of the departed Emmanuel Adebayor and the injured Nicklas Bendtner.
As such, Wenger has decided to foray into the transfer market during the January window. Apparently the Frenchman has eyes for Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh, but it's still to be seen whether Bordeaux will be willing to let go of their prized player.
