Arsenal are confident of reaching a full agreement to sign Crystal Palace superstar Eberechi Eze this summer, FootballTransfers has been informed. The England international has been on Arsenal’s radar for several months and Mikel Arteta’s side are currently locked in advanced negotiations with Crystal Palace as they look to finalise a deal. In fact, we have been told that Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is prepared to go “all in” for the 27-year-old. Eze’s current contract at Crystal Palace includes a €77.8 million (£68m) release clause, although Arsenal are likely to pay this fee in instalments. The Gunners have agreed…
Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze responded on social media after an exit from the Eagles was officially confirmed.

The Gunners have received a boost in their attempts of signing the forward as Football Insider revealed Eze is keen on a move to the Emirates, preferring Arsenal over interest from Tottenham and…

New Arsenal signing Noni Madueke has reportedly been reclassified as a homegrown player following his move from Chelsea. According to The Athletic, a request was made before the end of last season to change Madueke from a non-homegrown player to a homegrown one. The Premier League has reportedly updated Madueke’s status, meaning he won’t need to be counted as one of the 17 non-homegrown players Arsenal can name in their 25-man Premier League squad. Madueke swapped Chelsea for Arsenal earlier this month for a fee worth up to £52 million ($69.9m). Despite widespread criticism among Arsenal’s fans over the move,…

It’s once again time for us to round up and review the biggest and boldest new Premier League transfer rumours – and we’re going to kick things off with a story which suggests that Chelsea are planning to spoil Arsenal’s summer. In The Athletic’s latest write-up of Chelsea’s summer business, they suggest that the Blues have made a “fresh enquiry” for Ajax defender Jorrel Hato, who had seemed set to join Arsenal earlier in the summer but who remains on the market so far. Chelsea haven’t made a formal offer and “nothing has progressed yet” but 19-year-old left-back is…
Arsenal and Chelsea are involved in transfers in every window, one way or another. The Gunners have made it a habit of signing players from the Blues – Kepa Arrizabalaga and Noni Madueke have been brought in from Stamford Bridge this summer. When the two clubs aren’t working on a transfer between themselves, they often go after the same player in the window. We saw what happened with Mykhaylo Mudryk a few years ago. Now, history could repeat itself. Xavi Simons’ future is up in the air. The Dutchman is expected to leave RB Leipzig this summer and has been…

The Italian giants coughed up £42.35million to sign Luiz from Villa before handing him a five-year contract. Villa only parted company with the 27-year-old to comply with profit and sustainability rules after he enjoyed an outstanding 2023/24 season. Luiz is now trying to secure a move back to the Premier League after a miserable and injury-hit first campaign in Turin.…
