Bukayo Saka is Arsenal’s most important player. The Englishman has carried the Gunners since he was a teenager and has helped them become one of the best clubs in Europe. Saka is a guaranteed starter on the right wing for Arsenal, and that is not expected to change anytime soon under Mikel Arteta. However, there is something else that is set to change at the Emirates, if a report from Sweden is to be believed. Arsenal signed Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting CP in July. The Gunners made the Swede their top target in this window after deciding that Benjamin Sesko…
An Arsenal star is reportedly set to be offered a new deal that will increase his weekly wages without extending his time at the club. The player in question has just two years left to run on his current contract but the Gunners are claimed to have offered him fresh terms. The Athletic reports that Leandro Trossard has managed to secure a pay rise while his deal will still expire in 2027 – as a result of Arsenal previously said to have acknowledged that his role within the team is not reflected by his contract terms in comparison to some…
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah gave a telling reaction after rival Declan Rice referenced Arsenal’s trio of runner-up finishes while on stage at the PFA Awards ceremony. Salah won the top Players’ Player of the Year award at the event in Manchester – the third time he has claimed the honour. Rice joined Salah on stage as part of the team of the year as one of three Arsenal representatives, with defenders Gabriel and William Saliba also making the cut. Salah was one of four Liverpool stars included, or five if you count new arrival Milos Kerkez, who was included on…
Arsenal are hopeful of still being active in the final weeks of the summer transfer window. Having already brought in six players, the Gunners remain open to the idea of further moves, although there are requirements for that to happen. Particular pressures come from the group’s size, with as many as 28 players on the books at present, eight more than can fit in a matchday squad. Then there are the always-present UEFA Financial Fair Play regulations the club want to work comfortably within. Yet if there is a quick turnaround and the club do manage to give themselves some…
Arsenal fans were hoping to see another attacking signing arrive before the summer transfer deadline, but that no longer seems likely. Mikel Arteta is looking to finally bring the Premier League title to Arsenal after three third-place finishes in a row. The Gunners have come agonisingly close to Premier League glory in recent years, but top spot continues to evade Arteta. This summer has been a big one, with Arsenal snapping up Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting as Arteta’s new goalscoring star. The Swede didn’t score against Manchester United on Sunday, but Gary Neville defended Gyokeres for his display at Old…
The PFA Team of the Year has been announced, and three Arsenal players have made the cut. The Gunners, for the third season in a row, finished as the runners-up in the Premier League last term, and many of their players performed well. However, only three of Mikel Arteta’s men were named in the PFA Team of the Year on Tuesday night. Declan Rice, who won Arsenal’s Player of the Season award, made it in, as did the Gunners’ two star centre-backs William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes. Gabriel is one of Arsenal’s best players. The Brazil international has been at…
For Dalton Knecht, this offseason was supposed to be about redemption. A chance to prove himself following the rumors about his uncertain future with the Los Angeles Lakers. Instead, his Summer League performance raised more questions than answers, averaging a meager 10.3 points on dismal 27.9% shooting. As Lakers insider Jovan Buha noted, it’s hard to argue for a rotation spot for a player who “has somehow looked even worse than he did during the regular season.” The 24-year-old saw his minutes plummet from a key rotation piece in November to a playoff afterthought by April. His name even surfaced…
The former champion can’t believe the Mavericks decided to make the move to trade Luka Doncic to the Lakers. The Los Angeles Lakers pulled off the trade of the century when they were able to acquire Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks. It was a trade that surprised everyone in the NBA. Mavericks fans, former Mavericks players, and everyone else in the league were shocked. No one could believe that Dallas would part ways with their franchise player. One former player was absolutely shocked that the Mavericks ended up deciding to trade Doncic. Former champion Tyson Chandler said that he…
After suffering an injury scare in Slovenia’s friendly match on Saturday in advance of EuroBasket 2025, Luka Doncic was back on the court for the country’s penultimate friendly on Tuesday versus Great Britain. He didn’t seem to show any sign that he had narrowly avoided a serious knee injury just three days prior. While he hit just two of his 11 3-point attempts, he ended up with 28 points, 10 assists, six rebounds, three steals and one block in an easy 93-81 win for Slovenia. Once again, as he did in his previous two appearances, he looked svelte and fit,…
At just 26 years old, Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Doncic already has a stacked NBA resume. The Los Angeles Lakers star is a 5x All-Star, 5x All-NBA, and also led the Dallas Mavericks to the 2024 NBA Finals. While it’s obvious that Luka Doncic makes his teammates better, what about the other side of the story? What’s it like to share the court with the Slovenian superstar? Aside from his NBA career, Doncic never fails the opportunity to represent the Slovenian basketball team. Even right now, Doncic is with Slovenia for the 2025 EuroBasket. There’s no doubt that his…
