Martin Zubimendi completes £51m Arsenal transfer

At long last, Arsenal announced the signing of Zubimendi, a player who has been close to an agreement with the club since January.

Arsenal close in on Viktor Gyokeres transfer

Renowned journalist David Ornstein confirmed that Arsenal are advancing in talks with Gyokeres.

The Swede has been linked to a transfer for some time, and after talks with Benjamin Sesko stalled, Berta accelerated the deal with Sporting CP for the 27-year-old talisman.

Gyokeres’ relationship with Sporting has grown sour, as the player has made it clear that he is desperate to join Arsenal this summer.

It remains to be seen whether the two clubs can strike a total agreement, with it looking as though the Gunners could land one of Europe’s hottest goal scorers.

Leandro Trossard appoints a new agent

Contract talks with Leandro Trossard have stalled, giving Arteta a decision to make this summer.

Arsenal are looking to upgrade their wide options, with a long list of targets being assessed by Berta.

Noni Madueke has agreed personal terms over a possible transfer, which has alerted both Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli about whom Arsenal are also looking at. 

With interest in Eberechi Eze and Rodrygo also known, both the Belgian and the Brazilian are in deep thought about their futures, with Trossard taking action.
