Atletico Madrid ‘expect’ to lose Jan Oblak to Arsenal or Liverpool in the summer window, and are already planning for his exit, according to reports.

In this edition of the Daily Cannon Arsenal podcast, Matthew and Paul discuss the new man with the new plan in the new structure, why we said no to Mikel, and feeling sad about the departure of our diminutive Spanish genius.

Nabil Fekir insists he isn’t close to joining Jurgen Klopp’s men in Liverpool, and he still has a number of offers to consider this summer.

Arsenal tried to hijack Liverpool’s deal to sign Monaco’s Fabinho and although they failed with their efforts late on, the move tells us very clearly that Arsenal are trying to sign an actual defensive midfielder.

Arsenal are set to earn more money from the Premier League than Chelsea this season, despite finishing seven points behind them in the table.

The details of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s contract with Arsenal have leaked to the media, along with the specifics of Alexis Sanchez and Virgil Van Dijk’s deals.

Liverpool have been sending scouts to watch Bordeaux forward Malcom in recent weeks, as Jurgen Klopp looks to add to his attacking options.

Arsenal are planning to pay Piotr Zielinski’s €65m (£57m) buyout clause to fend off competition from Liverpool and land the midfielder this summer.

Nabil Fekir and his father, Mohamed, have flatly denied reports that he has agreed a transfer to Liverpool this summer.

Arsenal likely won’t go back for Thomas Lemar this summer, thanks to Arsene Wenger’s decision to leave the club at the end of the season.

Richard Keys claims Thierry Henry missed Arsene Wenger’s final match as manager at the Emirates Stadium because he didn’t get the job to replace his former boss.

Sven Mislintat was reportedly the man at Arsenal who reached out to Liverpool’s Zeljko Buvac, setting off a chain of events that has seen the Bosnian leave Liverpool amid reports of a falling out with Jurgen Klopp.

Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas insists the club haven’t had any contact with Liverpool today over the sale of Nabil Fekir, despite plenty of stories suggesting the contrary.

Zeljko Buvac is unlikely to return to Liverpool, after falling out with the club over an approach from Arsenal, according to reports.

Zeljko Buvac has left Liverpool due to the illness of his father rather than because he is set to become the new Arsenal manager.
