Osimhen makes his choice

The race to sign Victor Osimhen in 2024 looks to be coming down to Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs and the Napoli star would prefer to join the Blues.

Chelsea are also reportedly again interested in Michael Olise and this is bad news for a big-money signing at Stamford Bridge.

Timber out for the season?

A fresh update on Jurrien Timber suggests that the summer arrival could be out for the entire season due to his ACL injury.

This isn't the only issue at Arsenal as Gabriel Jesus, who has only scored once in the Premier League this season, has admitted that scoring goals is not his strong point.

Perhaps because of Jesus' admission, it has now been claimed that Ivan Toney will join the Gunners in 2024.

Furthermore, a long-time servant who was signed during the Wenger days could finally be on his way out.

Man Utd clearout

Erik ten Hag is plotting another massive clearout at Man Utd and more than 10 players could be axed by the Dutchman.

Among them is potentially Casemiro who is seriously considering a move to Saudi Arabia.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe could have a hand in some of these departures and Sir Alex Ferguson is 'optimistic' about the INEOS chief's investment.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some transfer news from around the world. Jose Mourinho has dropped another major hint regarding a potential job in Saudi Arabia.

Man Utd defender Harry Maguire has expressed his disappointment that the Red Devils weren't able to bring in Harry Kane.

Romelu Lukaku's father believes that his son should move to Saudi Arabia.

Erling Haaland was 'one step away' from joining Juventus as a youngster.

Man Utd are eyeing a shock move for a Bayern legend.
