It had looked like Eberechi Eze was Tottenham Hotspur-bound before an 11th-hour Arsenal hijack changed the Englishman’s likely north London destination. Eze, who had been linked with a move to Arsenal earlier in the window, looks set for a move to the Emirates Stadium and a return to his boyhood club. The Crystal Palace ace dazzled in the Gunners’ academy as a kid, before leaving for Queens Park Rangers and eventually joining the Eagles in 2020. And if a transfer transpires, Eze will have five squad number options to pick from at Arsenal. The most unlikely of options on this…
Just hours before Arsenal clinched a deal for Eberechi Eze, somewhat cruelly, Tottenham Hotspur finally put in the offer they felt would be acceptable to Crystal Palace. There had been a verbal agreement. Spurs just never got a proper answer. After days of difficult and painstaking negotiations between Daniel Levy and Steve Parish, Arsenal had appeared to steal in within a matter of mere hours. That has already seen this move cast as the mother of all transfer hijackings, especially with how it is another North London derby victory. Except, it wasn’t really a hijacking at all. The Independent can…
Arsenal could emerge as a potential destination for Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman before the transfer deadline, according to GIVEMESPORT correspondent Fabrizio Romano. The Gunners have had a busy summer transfer window with Mikel Arteta adding Kepa Arrizabalaga, Christian Norgaard, Martin Zubimendi, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera and Viktor Gyokeres to the squad after three consecutive runners-up finishes in the Premier League. But a left-sided forward is also something that the club are keen on adding to their options before the transfer window closes on September 1st, and Lookman could now become a late option. Lookman, who has been described as ‘world-class’…
ARSENAL are weighing up a dramatic swoop for Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers. The Gunners were already monitoring Rogers closely as they searched for a new forward to challenge Gabriel Martinelli. And news of Kai Havertz’s knee injury has only increased the likelihood that Arsenal will go back into the market before the transfer window closes. Rogers, 23, would offer high quality and great versatility with his ability to play across all four advanced positions in boss Mikel Arteta’s preferred formation. Arteta personally congratulated Rogers when he received his PFA Young Player of the Year award in Manchester on Tuesday…
Arsenal are reportedly in the market for another new striker after a major injury blow to Kai Havertz. Early names to pop up in the rumour mill are Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson and Ademola Lookman of Atalanta as they look to bolster a frontline containing recent acquisition Viktor Gyokeres. The transfer market is hotting up with one forward in the centre of the market, Alexander Isak, changing the tone of his saga late on Tuesday night with an explosive statement. He accused Newcastle United of “broken promises” and “lost trust” with Liverpool still strongly linked with a move for the Swedish…
Mohamed Salah has put a little extra pressure on the shoulders of Arsenal, claiming they are the “favourites” for the Premier League title. On Wednesday, the 33-year-old won the PFA Player of the Year award for 2024/25, making him the first-ever player to win the prize three times. Speaking to an Arsenal-supporting interviewer at the ceremony, Salah said the Gunners are the favourites to be champions this season, in some early mind games. “I think you have a great team this season and last season, so you have a really good chance,” a smiling Salah said. “I think you are…
Real Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso has reiterated that he is “counting” on Rodrygo following yet another snub. Rodrygo was an unused substitute for Los Blancos on Tuesday night as they kicked off their 2025-26 La Liga campaign with a 1-0 win at home to 10-man Osasuna. Not only was Brahim Diaz selected to start in Real Madrid’s front three – alongside Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior – but Gonzalo Garcia and summer signing Franco Mastantuono were chosen ahead of the Brazilian to appear in the second half. This decision is hot on the heels of Rodrygo playing a bit-part…
Raheem Sterling would prefer to stay in London this summer if possible and is thought to have interest from three clubs according to reports. Sterling’s career has been on a steady decline since he joined Chelsea from Manchester City for £50m back in 2022. The England international has had a difficult time at Stamford Bridge, and was even booed by Chelsea supporters during Mauricio Pochettino’s time in charge. It was made clear Sterling wasn’t part of the plans under Enzo Maresca, but it appeared he was set to spend at least six months on the sidelines, before he completed a…
One of Europe’s best players has made contact with Arsenal and is open to a move to the Emirates Stadium right now, according to a report, which has claimed that the star has also held conversations with Tottenham Hotspur, as TEAMtalk analyses whether the development on the future of Leandro Trossard could scupper a transfer. Arsenal are determined to beat the likes of Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea to the Premier League title this season and have been very busy in the summer transfer window. Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera and Viktor Gyokeres are the…
TBR Football understands that Eberechi Eze is very excited about the prospect of playing for Tottenham Hotspur following talks with Thomas Frank. Tottenham Hotspur are close to reaching an agreement with Crystal Palace for Eze, worth just over £60 million. TBR Football revealed last week that Tottenham had returned for the attacker after James Maddison’s knee injury, and Arsenal walked away from talks with Eze. Spurs are now closing in on a deal to sign him, and the player is believed to be buzzing about the opportunity to play for the Lilywhites. Eberechi Eze was quickly convinced by Tottenham’s project…
