Arsene Wenger admits he needs "one more body" in his Arsenal midfield.
The Gunners fielded a youthful side for the first match of their pre-season training camp in Austria against Hungarian side Szombathelyi Haladas on Tuesday, which finished 1-1 and saw Mexican teenager Carlos Vela make his debut.
Wenger has seen his options in the middle of the park depleted following the departures of Mathieu Flamini, veteran Brazilian Gilberto and winger Alexander Hleb.
While youngsters Aaron Ramsey and Samir Nasri have arrived, Wenger is looking to add an experienced head before the transfer window closes next month.
However, the Arsenal manager would not go into specific targets.
"We will need one more body in there," Wenger said. "At the moment we do not have Alex Song who is going to the Olympic games, Abou Diaby was not here [against Szombathelyi] and nor was [Cesc] Fabregas.

"If we find a reasonable target then we will do it - but there is no special name on the list.
"We have some time. We have until 31st August."
Arsenal will play a Burgenland XI in Ritzing, Austria on Monday night before meeting Stuttgart on 30th July - a match which could see veteran German goalkeeper Jens Lehmann face his old club.
Wenger is happy enough with the squad's preparations so far for the new season, which will begin with a Champions League qualifier on 12/13th August.
"We integrated three games into our training camp and this was the first," he said.
"Of course the international players were not here, but it was a good test."
