Monday delivered some huge transfer news as Arsenal were made to reconsider their pursuit of Viktor Gyokeres.

Plus, Chelsea may have unearthed their very own Neymar and Man Utd were given a major Matthijs de Ligt warning by Bayern. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Gyokeres right for Arsenal?

Viktor Gyokeres is undoubtedly a great finisher, but with so many of his goals coming from the penalty spot, is he the right striker for Arsenal?

Perhaps the Gunners already have other players in mind, such as Eintracht Frankfurt's Omar Marmoush - and he's keen on the move.

Chelsea thrilled with Estevao

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca believes that 2025 recruit Estevao is doing 'fantastic' at Palmeiras.

According to Fabrizio Romano, his form is not only good for Palmeiras on the pitch but also from a financial point of view.

Man Utd's De Ligt warning

Bayern director Max Eberl has revealed that he decided to sell Matthijs de Ligt because of concerns that he was too slow.

Man Utd's attacking problem

Erik ten Hag has confirmed that he has evidently given up on Man Utd flop Antony.

In the absence of the Brazilian, others have stepped up and arguably their best player of the season so far is set to be rewarded with a new deal.

Marcus Rashford, meanwhile, has been told that one good performance against Southampton is not good enough to silence the critics.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. Enzo Maresca has inadvertently made a damning admission on Chelsea's recruitment.

Man Utd legend Andy Cole believes that Erik ten Hag's style of play is the club's worst in the Premier League era.

The Premier League would 'lose all authority' if they let Man City get away with their financial offences.

PSG are interested in one of Arsenal's key players.

A Serie A defender has told Chelsea what they would get if they were to finally sign Victor Osimhen.

Is Robert Lewandowski a bad influence at Barcelona? Fabrizio Romano has revealed the truth.

Chelsea are facing a big Ben Chilwell problem.

Angel Gomes has been told that a return to Man Utd would be a bad idea.

Conor Gallagher has got off to a flying start at Atletico Madrid.

In the Premier League, meanwhile, there were several big-name debuts at the weekend. How did the likes of Jadon Sancho and Manuel Ugarte fare?
