Arsenal Transfer News LIVE: Merino SPEAKS, Gyokeres and Osimhen OPTIONS, Nketiah EXIT

Arsenal are keen on Arda Guler and will approach Real Madrid about a potential transfer soon.

The Turkish wonderkid is one of the best young talents in world football but the presence of Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior at Madrid has left him with minimal gametime under Carlo Ancelotti this season.

Guler reportedly wants to leave the Santiago Bernabeu and would cost potential suitors around €30 million. (Fichajes)

Man Utd will look to strike an early deal for Victor Osimhen and secure his signing before the summer.

The Nigerian is currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli after falling out with the club hierarchy in Naples. He'll be a wanted man in the upcoming transfer and has been linked with a number of clubs, but United will soon look to trigger his €75 million release clause. (Taktik Mania)

Arsenal, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus and Barcelona are also interested.

Arsenal are on the lookout for a new left-sided winger this summer and their number one target remains Nico Williams of Athletic Bilbao.

However, should the Spain international move elsewhere, the club has a secondary choice in the form of flying Milan forward Rafael Leao, according to TBR Football.

And, Arsenal have an ace in the hole in their negotiations as Champions League hero Declan Rice is acquainted with Leao after the pair trained together in the summer of 2023, while they have previously exchanged messages on social media.

Arsenal are interested in signing Arda Guler.

Mikel Arteta is keen to add more creativity and firepower to his team next season and the Turkey international has been identified as a target.

There's no doubt that Bukayo Saka's performances in an Arsenal shirt deserve silverware. Even if the Gunners don't win big trophies soon, it doesn't look like there are concerns over his future.

Speaking ahead of the Champions League clash against Real Madrid, Saka said: "I want to win. I want to win wearing this badge. It's pretty clear. The fans know how much I love them. I think they love me back, I'm really happy to be here."

Arsenal have been handed a boost as Man Utd will no longer pursue a deal for Viktor Gyokeres.

The Swede has already drawn up a list of clubs he would sign for and United aren't on it, so the Red Devils have turned their attention to Liam Delap of Ipswich.

According to reports, Arsenal will hold talks with Gyokeres' agents on Tuesday. (ESPN)

Man Utd have initiated talks to sign Matheus Cunha this summer.

The Brazilian has been a shining light in a dismal season for Wolves and has already stated his desire to move to a bigger club and fight for silverware.

Arsenal and Liverpool have been credited with an interest, too, but the Red Devils will look to strike a deal early to get their man. (talkSPORT)

Arsenal and Liverpool are the two main contenders to sign Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace this summer.

The England international has long been linked with a move away from Palace and could have left a year ago if not for the departure of Michael Olise.

According to Caught Offside, he'll likely move to either the Emirates or Anfield.

Viktor Gyokeres has emerged as Arsenal's number one transfer target this summer and a deal looks to be gathering pace.

Football.London reports that the Swede's representatives will be in North London this week to attend Arsenal's Champions League clash against Real Madrid.

Arsenal are closing in on their first signing for the upcoming transfer window.

Even though a new centre-forward is a priority for the club, they will instead look to strengthen the goalkeeper position first, as a deal is set to be struck for Espanyol stopper Joan Garcia.

El Nacional reports that Garcia has a €20 million release clause.

Arsenal have made a new striker a priority this summer and Viktor Gyokeres is currently at the top of Mikel Arteta's wishlist.

New sporting director Andrea Berta arrived at the Gunners last week and has wasted no time in initiating plans for the upcoming window, with the Sporting CP striker emerging as a major target.

Gyokeres was linked with Arsenal last summer, but the club opted against signing a new centre-forward. (GiveMeSport)
