Real Madrid are planning to use the money they got from Arsenal for Martin Odegaard to sign Paul Pogba from Manchester United

Arsenal crashed to a 2-0 home defeat against Chelsea on Sunday afternoon but they will no doubt be more concerned about the injuries picked up by Kieran Tierney and Gabriel Martinelli.

Aaron Ramsdale was announced on Friday night to little fanfare from Arsenal or their fans.

Martin Odegaard is receiving the same treatment from the Real Madrid-friendly press in Spain as Mesut Ozil did when he left the club for Arsenal.

Shkodran Mustafi’s wage demands are stopping him from finding a new club according to reports across Europe.

Arsenal’s deal to sign Martin Odegaard from Real Madrid will make the 23-year-old the most expensive Norwegian in history.

Sheffield United’s boss, Slavisa Jokanovic, said it wasn’t ‘perfect preparation’ to lose Aaron Ramsdale so close to their game against West Brom as the keeper agrees a deal with Arsenal.

Nigel Winterburn has urged Mikel Arteta to make Kieran Tierney Arsenal’s captain amid reports Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang could leave the club this summer.

After being heavily linked with a move to Arsenal, Manuel Locatelli has, as expected, signed for Juventus on a deal they won’t pay for until 2023.

Martin Odegaard had a trial at Arsenal before signing for Real Madrid, against the advice of a number of people.

Sheffield United boss Slavisa Jokanovic has admitted that Aaron Ramsdale wants to join Arsenal but if it was up to him he wouldn’t sell the goalkeeper for £100m.

The value of Arsenal’s squad has plummeted, dropping them below Leicester and some £200m away from Spurs in what is a damming indictment of how the club has been run.

Edu and Mikel Arteta still have a lot to do in this transfer window in the final two weeks, but does their previous business tell us we should be optimistic or worried?

Arsenal and Manchester United will have to pay Kieran Trippier’s €60m release clause if they want to sign him this summer with Atletico Madrid eyeing the money to help their academy.

Arsenal have reportedly extended their deal with Rwanda who will continue to sponsor the club’s shirt sleeves.

Mikel Arteta went into this season knowing his job was nowhere near as secure as he would like it to be and with fans back in the stadium, his process needs to start delivering very soon.

Mesut Ozil finally scored a goal for Fenerbahce, registering for the first time since he found the back of the net for Arsenal at the start of 2020.

Arsenal are reportedly considering a move for Antonio Conte who is currently without a club.

Arsenal will take part in the European Club Association (ECA) again after resigning from the organisation earlier this year to join the 24-hour European Super League.

Arsenal had to pay the guts of £1m following their loss to Brentford thanks to a performance clause in Pablo Mari’s contract, a player who was largely slated throughout the whole game.Arsenal had to pay the guts of £1m following their loss to Brentford thanks to a performance clause in Pablo Mari’s contract, a player who was largely slated throughout the whole game.
