Arsenal have tied up a move for Eberechi Eze of Crystal Palace, according to reports following the Eagles’ Community Shield triumph. Though Eze saw his spot-kick saved in the shootout, Oliver Glasner’s team twice pulled back a goal to send the Shield showpiece to penalties after the game ended 2-2 at 90 minutes – with Arsenal target Eze and his Crystal Palace team-mates winning another trophy in the Wembley sunshine. Though speculation is rife on where the Greenwich-born playmaker will be next season, Glasner was adamant that Eze would start against Liverpool, committing the player’s present to Selhurst Park at…
Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze is “closing in” on a move to Arsenal this summer, according to FootballTransfers. Arsenal enjoyed a strong 2024/25 season, reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League as they finished second in the Premier League for a third consecutive campaign. Despite all of their good performances, however, it was yet another season without silverware for the Gunners. Mikel Arteta, whose latest trophy at the Emirates came in 2020, has overseen six new additions this summer as he looks to finally get Arsenal over the line. The experienced duo of Kepa Arrizabalaga and Christian Norgaard have joined…
Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli have completed the signing of French midfielder Enzo Millot, a move that could help Arsenal complete two deals. Saudi Pro League side Al Ahli have completed the signing of French midfielder Enzo Millot from VfB Stuttgart in a deal worth a reported €28 million, potentially rising above €30 million with add-ons. The 23-year-old has signed a three-year contract, ending a four-year stint in Germany where he made 113 appearances and played a pivotal role in Stuttgart’s Bundesliga resurgence, including last season’s second-place finish. Stuttgart confirmed the transfer on Friday, thanking Millot for his contribution…
Since his appointment as Arsenal’s sporting director in March, Andrea Berta has been working tirelessly to secure new signings for Mikel Arteta. His immediate impact on the club’s dealings and strategy is evident in the £63.7million marquee signing of Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres. In his initial weeks at the helm, Berta championed the acquisition of the Swedish forward, who looks set to spearhead the attack at Old Trafford in next weekend’s Premier League opener, having already found the back of the net in his debut appearance at the Emirates. The Sobha Realty Training Centre has also seen a flurry…
Inter Milan and AC Milan are racing furiously to sign Liverpool linked Parma defender Giovanni Leoni this summer. This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that the team to make a big sale first could get the edge in the battle for Leoni’s signature. Leoni had already caught Inter’s eye last summer. However, they failed to get a deal done with Sampdoria for him as Parma instead signed the young defender. But Leoni’s performances last season truly solidified Inter’s interest. Not least after Inter appointed Cristian Chivu as coach from Parma.…
AC Milan have secured the services of Berkay Karaca on a free transfer, expected to add him to the Futuro squad for the upcoming season. In addition to the first team, Milan have also made quite a lot of moves for the Futuro side this summer. Obviously, that was to be expected as many players have also left the team, following the relegation from Serie C. The left-back was one of the positions to reinforce with Andrea Bozzolan heading to Reggiana on a permanent basis earlier in the summer. By the sounds of it, the Rossoneri have now found the…
AC Milan were held to a 1-1 draw against Leeds United in Dublin on Saturday afternoon. A few players stood out and below are the ratings for the Rossoneri. If you haven’t already, make sure to check out how we decide the player ratings. From the scale to what affects the rating, we have compiled everything there. Starting XI Terracciano (4.5): Sadly, the howler on the goal ruined what otherwise was a decent performance. We can talk all we like about there being many bodies ahead of him, but you simply have to save that cross/shot. It’s not like he made…
AC Milan and Newcastle have reached an agreement for the transfer of Malick Thiaw, who will join the English side in a deal worth €40m including bonuses. Although Newcastle have been linked with Thiaw for quite some time, the negotiations only took off in the last few days. An improved offer was tabled earlier today and it prompted Milan to give the green light, getting the €40m (including bonuses) that they wanted. Fabrizio Romano tweeted the ‘Here we go!’ just a few minutes ago, with Thiaw expected to undergo his medical tests very soon. It’s perfect timing for the defender…
AC Milan failed to clinch a third consecutive win on Saturday, but at least came away with a draw from the game against Leeds United. As always, we have picked out three things that we learned from the performance. Max Allegri named a semi-strong starting XI for the game, though leaving a lot of the key names out due to the game against Chelsea tomorrow (Sunday). Ardon Jashari got to make his first appearance in the red and black shirt, for example, while Santiago Gimenez was back up front. Speaking of the striker, he scored the Rossoneri’s only goal of…
Viktor Gyokeres scored his first Arsenal goal in a 3-0 victory against Athletic Bilbao. Gyokeres headed Martin Zubimendi’s searching cross beyond goalkeeper Unai Simon before performing his trademark celebration on his second Emirates appearance. The striker, signed for £64million from Sporting Lisbon, was involved in the build-up to the second goal, finding Declan Rice who in turn picked out Gabriel Martinelli. Simon rushed out but was caught, allowing Martinelli to tee up Bukayo Saka. In one of his final acts, Gyokeres saw another deft header tipped onto the woodwork, before his replacement Kai Havertz also got on the scoresheet. Viktor…
