Arsenal among clubs monitoring Samuel Chukwueze 0

According to a recent report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, there is plenty of interest in Villarreal winger Samuel Chukwueze when it comes to transfer plans for the summer of 2023.

Chukwueze left his homeland of Nigeria to join Villarreal’s Under-19 side in 2017, and having passed through the club’s “B” side rather quickly, he earned a place in the first-team squad in late 2018. Since then, he’s gone on to represent the Yellow Submarine on 176 occasions, scoring 27 goals and producing 24 assists in all competitions.

Arsenal have been named by a host of sources as one of the clubs interested in signing Mykhaylo Mudryk from Shakhtar Donetsk next summer.

The 21-year-old winger recently spoke about the prospect of playing in the Premier League in the future, and having said it would’ve been hard for him to say no to such a move, he even mentioned Arsenal as a club whose shirt he could see himself wearing. Apparently, the club already tried to sign Mudryk this summer, but Shakhtar’s valuation of around £30 million for the services of the player whose contract still has four years left to run was deemed too much.

Arsenal are back in action and doesn’t that feel so good to say? Sure, they’ve been playing games for a couple of weeks now, but the fixture with Everton felt like a genuine return to form – and to ‘official’ friendlies, if you will.

The Gunners are out in the United States right now and they appear to be enjoying their visit, starting off with an entertaining clash against the Toffees. They managed to come away with a nice 2-0 win overnight with two goals in just three minutes from Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka.

Transfer rumours: Richarlison decides against Arsenal transfer 0

Everton forward Richarlison has apparently decided against joining Arsenal this summer. That is according to Brazil UOL (via Sport Witness), and the main reason behind it is the possibility of Leeds United winger Raphinha moving to the Emirates. Richarlison apparently believes it would condemn him to sitting on the bench.

Meanwhile, the Brazil international continues to be linked with the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, and there’s no real need to point out that he would hardly get any game-time ahead of the likes of Harry Kane or Kai Havertz.

Alexandre Lacazette has left Arsenal and has been confirmed as an Olympique Lyon player again. His departure follows fast in the wake of that of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Barcelona in January, and Arsenal have found themselves desperately short of strikers, despite Eddie Nketiah reportedly changing his mind about leaving and being close to signing a new contract.

Naturally, the club have turned to the transfer market in order to sort the issue out, and here’s what the Evening Standard are reporting about that mission.

Arsenal are obviously in desperate need of a striker, potentially even two, this summer, and their search for players of the right pedigree goes a long way back. There’s hardly any need to stress – Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is no longer at the club, and Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah are both set to follow the Gabonese through the exit door as free agents at the end of next month.

Arteta reflects on missing out on top four despite Everton win 0

While Arsenal may have impressed with a 5-1 demolition of Everton on the final day of the Premier League season, they didn’t achieve their ultimate goal which was to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions League. Tottenham were able to walk through Norwich with a 5-0 triumph, ensuring that Spurs edged out the Gunners into that elusive fourth spot.

Now, the questions really begin to stack up for the club and manager Mikel Arteta ahead of what is bound to be a really intense summer. In his post-game press conference, the Spaniard had the following to say.

While Arsenal may have allowed control of the top four race to slip into the hands of their rivals Tottenham Hotspur, that doesn’t mean all hope is lost. They head into the final day of the Premier League season knowing that if they can beat Everton, they’ll put themselves in the best possible position they can to finish fourth and return to the Champions League. Of course, they need Norwich City to do them a huge favour by beating Spurs, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Prior to kick-off, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta spoke with the media about the challenge that lies ahead on Sunday.

We’ve finally arrived at the final game of the Premier League season and the majority of Arsenal fans will say that it feels pretty bittersweet. While some real improvements have been made within the core of this squad over the last nine months, that can’t erase the fact that the top four race is no longer in the Gunners’ hands.

Today, we’re going to take a look at the clash with Everton on Sunday and what to expect.

According to the Evening Standard, the Gunners have set signing two strikers and a midfielder as their top priority, with a left-sided centre-back and a right back slightly lower on the wish list.
