Old video footage of Tottenham and Arsenal transfer target Eberechi Eze expressing his love for the Gunners has emerged. The Crystal Palace playmaker has been linked with both north London clubs this summer. Arsenal were initially expected to be Eze’s next destination due to their interest in signing a left-sided attacking midfielder. But their bitter rivals Tottenham now appear in pole position to sign the 27-year-old England international. Spurs are understood to want to sign Eze for a fee of £55million plus £5m in bonuses, with his release clause of £68.5m having expired earlier this summer. However, they are yet…
Arsenal are in concrete talks to sell Jakub Kiwior to FC Porto after he was excluded from their matchday squad to face Manchester United on Sunday afternoon. Kiwior, 25, was omitted by Mikel Arteta at Old Trafford and he could be set to leave the Gunners before the summer transfer window closes on 1 September. The Poland international made 30 appearances across all competitions last season, however he only started 10 Premier League matches and he has fallen further down the pecking order following the summer signing of Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera. The new arrival was selected on the substitutes…
TBR Football understands that Arsenal would now ideally like to sign Rodrygo on loan from Real Madrid this summer. Although Andrea Berta has already welcomed attacking additions like Viktor Gyokeres and Noni Madueke to Arsenal, the Gunners are still in the market for a left winger. Gabriel Martinelli began the season on the left for Arsenal in their 1-0 win over Manchester United. But come the end of August, Mikel Arteta’s attack could look very different, especially if Berta is able to recruit Rodrygo from Spain. TBR Football shared earlier in the summer that Rodrygo is a dream target for…
Arsenal have closed their next deal of the transfer window. The Gunners have spent heavy this summer on six new faces with three of them – Viktor Gyokeres, Martin Zubimendi and Noni Madueke – making their Premier League debuts for Arsenal at the weekend. Christian Norgaard, Kepa Arrizabalaga and Cristhian Mosquera are all still waiting for their first minutes – and manager Mikel Arteta may yet bring in further additions, with competition for places higher than ever. The Gunners began their campaign with a scrappy 1-0 win over Manchester United, with competition for places evident, as Gyokeres started over Kai…
Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has shared his verdict on Arsenal’s new striker Viktor Gyokeres. The Swedish striker made his Premier League debut on the opening day during Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Man United. It didn’t take long for Man United fans to taunt Gyokeres, who struggled on his debut, largely due to the lack of service he was given from his teammates. As a unit, Arsenal didn’t create many chances at all, which was a problem for the £64m signing, particularly with all eyes on him in an opening day blockbuster. There’s not a lot of pressure more difficult…
Arsenal managed to steal a one-goal win away from Manchester United after overcoming the mounting pressure from countless attacks the home side sprung upon them. Referee Simon Hooper became the target of the Arsenal supporters throughout the game, with the official’s full name being chanted alongside, “it’s all about you!” However, fans of both teams ended the game with complaints about how the match was officiated. From the Arsenal goal, scored by Riccardo Calafiori, to a late penalty call on William Saliba after preventing Matheus Cunha from scoring, there were plenty of contentious moments. It might be early in the…
Arsenal got off to the perfect start in the Premier League as they held off a rejuvenated Manchester United side at Old Trafford. On an uncomfortable afternoon to start the season away from home, the Gunners scraped through without ever getting close to their best. Despite a shaky start, Arsenal took the lead through Riccardo Calafiori, who nodded in at the far post after Declan Rice had almost scored directly from a corner. Altay Bayindir flapped at the delivery and was left red-faced as United’s bright opening saw them behind. In an entertaining game that was worlds away from the…
Arsenal skipper Martin Odegaard gave the perfect response to Tony Adams’ recent calls for him to be replaced as club captain. That’s after the Norwegian enjoyed a performance fitting of the lead man in Arsenal’s hard-fought 1-0 win at Manchester United on Sunday. The Gunners travelled to Old Trafford not long after club legend Adams suggested Arsenal are “not going to win the league with Odegaard as captain.” The retired defender, who won four league titles with Arsenal and captained the team for 14 years, suggested the midfielder isn’t the man to end the club’s Premier League drought after three…
Mikel Arteta conceded that Arsenal struggled to bring the best out of new signing Viktor Gyokeres on his competitive debut, despite opening their Premier League campaign with a 1-0 victory at Manchester United. Riccardo Calafiori’s first-half header from a corner sealed the win for the Gunners at Old Trafford, though the visitors were second-best for large parts of the contest. David Raya produced key saves to deny United’s Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo as Arsenal held on to secure three points. Gyokeres, signed in the summer to spearhead Arsenal’s attack, endured a quiet debut. The Swedish striker failed to register…
