Mohammed Kudus wants to sign for Arsenal amid Chelsea transfer links — bildbyran

Attacker Mohammed Kudus of Ajax and Ghana “prefers” a move to Arsenal over Chelsea, another Premier League opponent

Kudus had a fantastic season in 2022–2023. He finished the season with 18 goals and seven assists for Ajax across all competitions after starring for Ghana at the World Cup.

The 22-year-old’s contract expires in two years, therefore Ajax could do better to sell him now rather than wait until his value starts to drop. He has been closely associated with Manchester United over the past year, but it appears that Arsenal and Chelsea are now in the lead in the fight to recruit him before the 2019–20 campaign.

In relation to a potential transfer to Chelsea, it was stated earlier this week that Kudus was “close” to “agreeing personal terms,” but according to Football Transfers, he has “expressed a strong preference for joining Arsenal” over its London rivals. According to reports, “personal terms with the Gunners would not be an issue” and the fact that Arsenal is playing in the Champions League is “a prominent aspect in his decision.” Kudus “would be happy” to join Chelsea, but if he had to choose between the two teams, he “would rather head to North London,” according to reports.

According to a another report from the similarly untrustworthy Fichajes, Chelsea is allegedly preparing a “crazy offer to steal the signing of Kudus from Arsenal.” According to reports, the star player for Ajax has emerged as “the central protagonist of an exciting conflict between two Premier League giants like Chelsea and Arsenal.”

According to reports, Chelsea is “willing to offer a juicy €45 million to acquire him,” and this offer would “give them a significant advantage” over Arsenal, who “need to generate revenue through sales before making a concrete offer.” According to recent reporting by journalist Ben Jacobs, Chelsea is looking into Kudus as a potential Conor Gallagher replacement.

Sutalo was impressive at the Croat club last season.

As per the reports of Italian news outlet Firenze Viola, Arsenal are facing competition for Dinamo Zagreb defender Josip Sutalo this summer.

It has been added that the North London club will have to rival Ajax, RB Leipzig, Fulham, and Napoli in the race to sign the Croatia international.

Sutalo was impressive at the Croat club last season. He featured in 36 matches last season in all competitions.

The 23-year-old will see his current contract expiring at Dinamo Zagreb in the summer of 2028. Hence, it won’t be easy for the North London club to sign him on a cut-price deal ahead of the new campaign.

Sutalo can sense the danger quickly and usually clears his lines when the opposition are on the front foot.

Sutalo has got a very promising future ahead of him. Hence, he would be an excellent signing for the Gunners this summer.

Declan Rice seeing different type of football under Mike Arteta — Bildbyran

Declan Rice blown away by Mikel Arteta’s football brain.

The English midfielder made a record £105million move to Arsenal after helping West Ham win the Europa Conference League trophy at the end of the 2022/23 campaign.

He has featured in Arsenal’s pre-season friendlies and is expected to adapt a new style of play under manager Mikel Arteta.

Arteta is known for his technical approach and his ability to see the game differently.

Rice has been heavily impressed with the manager so far and has spoken highly of his methods.

Rice told Sky Sports: ‘Yes, it’s crazy. It’s honestly crazy. I’m already seeing football in a completely different way.

‘You think you know football growing up and when you play, but when you meet managers like Mikel, you realise you don’t really know anything about football. There are different styles and different ways of playing that I’ve never experienced before.

‘Hopefully once all that starts to click, Arsenal will be amazing. And of course I want to go up a few levels as well, which I know I can. So yeah, it’s really important that I adapt.’

Newcastle joins Arsenal in the race to sign Sacha Boey this summer — bildbyran

Clubs like Newcastle must be on the lookout for fresh hires in strategic roles if they become available as long as the transfer window is open

We’ve seen how many signings may come down to the wire in previous transfer windows, both summer and winter, with some deals only becoming close in the final hours before the deadline.

The Magpies currently seem to be content with what they have after signing Sandro Tonali and Harvey Barnes during this current window.

There are some positions where it’s thought Eddie Howe wants to have some respectable depth and any new additions to really challenge the starting lineup.

Although Kieran Trippier has performed admirably since joining St. James’ Park, it cannot be denied that the right-back will turn 33 soon after the new season starts. Tino Livramento has been linked to the Magpies for a while; according to talkSPORT, Southampton recently rejected a deal for the player.

According to Goal, the Turkish giants have already had negotiations with Arsenal and other prospective suitors about the 20-year-old, so Newcastle may need to act quickly if they want to hire the full-back’s services. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €16 million or £14 million, therefore the North East juggernauts may be able to score a deal.

Arsenal outcast Kieran Tierney addresses his future — Bildbyran

Kieran Tierney started only six Premier League games last season.

The Scotland international has struggled for game time since the arrival of Oleksandr Zinchenko in the summer.

But he did make 36 appearances in all competitions but had to settle with mostly coming off the bench and starting in cup games.

Tierney has three years left on his contract and Arsenal would demand in the north of £30m for his services.

He has been heavily linked with Newcastle United and former club Celtic after falling down the pecking order at Arsenal.

Tierney said to The Athletic: “It’s not really up to me. I’m happy, I’m working hard every day and getting minutes. I’m just trying to do as well as I can.

“You can’t play every single game, every single season, every single year. I don’t expect that and I still made a lot of appearances last year.

“I was ready every game and working 100 per cent. I think everyone in there would agree with that, that I never give less than that whether I’m playing or not.

“In the games I did play I tried to do my best for the team. I came off the bench a lot last season, whether that was to see games out or help get a goal.”

Mikel Arteta tells his plans for Rice and Partey — Bildbyran

Mikel Arteta confirms the decision on Thomas Partey’s future.

The Ghana international has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli.

He has been one of the standout performers for Mikel Arteta last season and remains a vital part of the manager’s plans.

The Gunners have completed the £100m signing of Declan Rice from West Ham last week.

It was expected that Thomas Partey would be allowed to leave after the arrival of the English midfielder.

But Mikel Arteta ensures that he doesn’t expect Partey to leave in the summer window.

“Yes [he will stay] — Thomas Partey is a super-important player for us and for me, and we want him to be in the team, that’s for sure. They can play together [he and Rice]. That was in my plans,” Mikel Arteta said.

“If you want to improve the squad and have more quality, we need players who can play together and need players in the same positions who have to fight for their places — it’s something we haven’t had in the last few years.”

Arsenal showing interest in Ajax attacker Mohammed Kudus this summer — Bildbyrån

Mohammed Kudus netted 18 times and provided seven assists in 42 matches for Ajax last season.

Arsenal are showing interest in Ajax attacker Mohammed Kudus this summer. They have been solid in the summer window and already signed top players.

In a recent interview with TeamTalk, journalist Charles Watts confirmed Arsenal’s interest in The Ghana international. Watts said, “He [Kudus] is definitely a player that they like.”

“I’ve seen the recent reports that they’re potentially looking to step up that interest a bit later on in the window, which wouldn’t surprise me if that is the case.

“I still think they’re probably looking at adding at least one more player before the deadline and Kudus ticks a lot of boxes in terms of what they would look to bring in. He can cover on that right-hand side of the attack, which is absolutely a priority for Arsenal. He’s versatile, which is, again, an absolute must if you’re going to sign for Arsenal nowadays under Mikel Arteta.”

Kudus showed impressive displays for the Dutch club in the final third. The 22-year-old netted 18 times and provided seven assists in 42 matches for Ajax last campaign across all competitions.

The Ghana international is a good dribbler with the ball as well and hardly gives away possession cheaply in the opponent’s half.

Newcastle waiting for Tierney's decision as they wait to sign the Arsenal defender — bildbyran

Ben Jacobs, a transfer expert, believes that there is a “possibility” that Kieran Tierney will be available this summer.

However, they won’t act “until the player decides” on his future. The Magpies have been showing interest in Tierney for a while. Eddie Howe’s team appeared to be planning their move for the Arsenal full-back at the end of the previous campaign.

They probably chose him because of his evident ability level and the fact that Oleksandr Zinchenko’s arrival at Arsenal last summer forced him down the team’s hierarchy.

Last season, Tierney only made six league starts, and Newcastle will have anticipated that he could try to move on from the club as a result.

Although there hasn’t been a breakthrough yet, Jacobs claims that he’s still very much on the Magpies’ minds and that his lack of playing time may soon force a decision to leave.

Tierney might well deal with that better, having played a good deal of European and international football. However, if he doesn’t show that he’s willing to move, Newcastle might well turn to another option, whoever that may be.

Inter have joined the race to sign Folarin Balogun from Arsenal — bildbyran

The pursuit of Arsenal’s prodigious striker, Folarin Balogun, by Inter Milan is one of the major sagas of the summer, and it has put Arsenal in the hot seat

Arsenal must decide whether to keep their young potential or give in to Inter’s continuous attempts to reduce their €40 million asking price in the face of the Italian team’s demand.

Folarin Balogun, a potential forward for Arsenal, is still being sought after by Inter Milan. Inter’s interest in the player, who the Nerazzurri view as a “perfect investment,” has sparked a negotiation battle over the player’s transfer fee.

The North London club remains unwavering in its assessment of the teenage striker, who recently returned from a successful loan to Reims where he netted 21 goals. But even as they pursue, the Nerazzurri are pleading for a financial decrease, heightening the intrigue around the player’s future. Despite the high asking price, Inter Milan is still in contact with Arsenal and trying to negotiate a lower price.

The Italian club, who are renowned for their careful financial management, will have their hands full throughout the negotiations. According to reports, Balogun is enthusiastic about the change and is working behind the scenes to make it happen. While Inter’s desire is obvious, Arsenal is faced with a difficult choice. If they reduced their demand, a potentially valuable asset might leave for less money than they think he is worth.

The Gunners are not in a haste to make a decision, despite the fact that Balogun has supporters from Premier League clubs like Brighton, Crystal Palace, and West Ham United. Balogun is still a member of Arsenal for the time being, and his performance on their preseason tour could have an impact on how the talks turn out. The Balogun transfer issue goes on as both clubs maintain their views. Will Arsenal reduce their demand? Or will Inter Milan give in to the demand for €40m? The football world waits in expectation as the transfer window closes.

Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah will not settle for a bench role next season — bildbyran

Eddie Nketiah of Arsenal is adamant that he will not accept a benchwarmer position at the Emirates Stadium

The addition of Kai Havertz, who expands the team’s attacking options, has boosted rivalry for the striker’s starting spot.

Folarin Balogun has also rejoined Arsenal after a fruitful loan stint at Reims and may stay there, increasing the rivalry for Nketiah. Even though Havertz is primarily a midfielder, his adaptability allowed him to play as a striker while at Chelsea, which would hurt Nketiah’s prospects of playing that position at Arsenal.

Nketiah had committed to the team by signing a new long-term contract before the start of the previous season, despite the competition. Despite the heightened competition, he is eager to make sure he receives regular playing time.

Nketiah may fall farther down the club’s striker hierarchy as the season progresses, making it all the more important for him to put in the effort and contend for a spot in the starting eleven.

Nketiah did well to win a new deal with the team, but the striker might have trouble seeing action in games next year. If he wants to play frequently, he might have to think about going out on loan from the Emirates for a while, allowing him to demonstrate that he has what it takes to succeed in England.
