Arsenal

Jonathan David and Renato Sanches have given Arsenal a reason to pursue both players after their celebration for Lille.

However, the 24-year-old put talks on hold because he is ready for a new adventure. Arsenal needs to sign a striker in the summer due to the likely departure of Alexandre Lacazette , as his contract is set to expire at the end of the season. Both players have been linked with a potential move to north London in the summer, as Mikel Arteta will look to strengthen in both the forward and midfield positions.

Arsenal have reportedly identified another Lyon midfielder as a potential replacement for Granit Xhaka. Arsenal are once again expected to receive interest for Xhaka at the end of the season. So they are in a position to ask for a high fee for the midfielder. Arteta has shown interest in a number of midfielders across the last 18 months as he attempts to bring in the right players to implement a 4-3-3 formation. The 24-year-old, who has won 29 caps for Brazil, would give Arsenal a goalscoring threat from midfield, something Xhaka and Partey have failed to do. ARSENAL have failed in attempts to sign two midfielders from Lyon in the past but reportedly want a third. The Switzerland international came close to joining Roma last summer but the Serie A side failed to offer the fee the Gunners wanted.

If I had been Vlahovic, I would have gone to the Premier League. In the summer, he could have gone to the best teams. Much of what Odegaard has brought to Arsenal has seen a significant increase in chance creation and subsequently more goals. He has got players there, was it two years ago against Chelsea when there were a few players missing for various reasons? He said, relayed by Sport Witness: “It remains to be seen whether he will win trophies with Juventus. I will continue to be critical of Allegri. If football is to bring back the new generations, it must entertain the public. I’d love to have him on my team, hate playing against him. Players signed for both the short and long-term. In law, that is an offence." “For my part, I never wanted to do anything wrong. O'Hara: "Yes, at that moment but in the grand scheme of things, Arsenal are a better football club than Tottenham and have been for the last 10 years." Arsenal's No. 8 is starting to play like more of an eight on a consistent basis after decent performances against Wolves and Brentford and was merited with the well-taken goal he netted in the fifth minute against the Hornets to make it 1-0. The Gunners are off the back of their 3-2 win over Watford yesterday, with the victory sending Mikel Arteta and his men up to fourth in the league with games in hand over those around them. Elsewhere, the Gunners continue to be linked with a number of players, with a busy summer transfer window predicted as Arteta and Edu gear the squad up for another challenge.

A dynamic forward line fired on all cylinders once again to ensure that Arsenal continue to control their Champions League qualification destiny.

He needs to continue to behave and live the way he is doing, nothing else." "They understand when to do what in relation to what the opponent is doing so this is good. The time Arsenal have had to work without European football -- and in their midseason break to Dubai -- is paying off. There was a joy to their play from the outset and a superb opening goal came in just the fifth minute. Cucho Hernandez's brilliant 11th-minute bicycle kick drew the hosts level and briefly threatened an upset, only for Saka to underline that his palpable talent is augmented by a fine work ethic. Bukayo Saka scored one and made another as Arsenal claimed a 3-2 win at Watford on Sunday to take another vital step forward in their pursuit of Champions League qualification.

According to reports, an 'open door' has emerged for Arsenal to sign Barcelona midfielder Sergi Roberto this summer. He is out of contract this summer.

“I think experiences like that mark your career. “I think so,” Arteta added. Roberto has struggled with injuries this term as he has only played twelve times.

Marseille want to buy William Saliba in the summer but if Arsenal and Edu allow a sale the backlash would be significant.

football.london understands that it is the intention of Saliba to return and fight for his place. Often this has seen Arsenal continue to pay player wages after they have left such is the case with Mesut Ozil and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. You can follow Tom Canton from the TAW team to keep up to date with his work. In this worst-case scenario, Arsenal must make sure that they take advantage of the situation. He has been one of the best in the French league. However, Mikel Arteta’s arrival created much uncertainty about Saliba’s situation, and he has been sent on loan twice since the Spaniard’s appointment.
