Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says contract talks with Theo Walcott are on-going and resigning the striker will take priority over making new signings in January.
Walcott's current deal runs out at the end of the season and the England International has been linked with a move away after contract talks stalled a few months back.
The 23 year old has scored 14 goals this season which includes a hat-trick against Newcastle last week. Wenger is keen to tie Walcott down to a new deal after several of the club's young players signed long term contracts last month.
