Arsenal rumours 3

28 May 2025 17:29:23
RB Leipzig now want £92.5m for Sesko, i'll have a puff of whatever they are smoking.

28 May 2025 17:35:02
We've billions to spend.

So I hear.

28 May 2025 18:26:06
We do mate, we are minted.

28 May 2025 19:22:04
Billions? Just shows the lack of ambition from the owners. If they really cared about winning they'd spend Trillions at least 😖😖😖😖😖.

29 May 2025 22:19:46
I think Sesko is Arteta’s preferred choice- bags of potential but I think he’s too similar to Havertz in the way he plays. I’d still personally prefer Gyokeres who is completely different to anything we currently have, also more spent in Sesko could mean less on a winger.
Huge decision that could decide our season and people’s positions at the club.

04 Jun 2025 11:11:54
We have billions so we should get them both.

28 May 2025 13:39:02
Zubi having medical.

28 May 2025 17:31:39
Just read that, hopefully its true DG.

28 May 2025 17:35:41
Where you hearing that from Dublin.

28 May 2025 19:26:47
BBC main page reporting it Mark mate, usually means it's happening as they normally deal in news on the main page and keep the rumours separate in their gossip round up.

27 May 2025 09:00:28
Good morning everyone, I’ve seen a rumour today about arsenals tops striker is alverez form A madrid anyone heard of anything.

27 May 2025 09:29:46
Seen that too dublin

I think he's another jesus with out the injurys.

27 May 2025 11:36:18
Exactly what I was thinking, I want gyko I want him over Isak I think k isak is injury prone, I’d be devastated if we get sesko as I think he’s not good enough,

27 May 2025 12:00:29
I'm not upto date on any of them
I'll just have to see who we get

A mate in Spain reckons Williams is the dogs bolloxs.

28 May 2025 01:05:30
I massively rate Alvarez, think City were idiots, but I imagine this story is click bait.

{Ed001's Note - City let him go because his missus hated England.}

29 May 2025 02:25:35
Cheers Ed001, that's some useful context. Amazing how often that ends up being the case, I think it was similar for Aguero and Di Maria right?

{Ed001's Note - bit more to it with Di Maria, him and his missus never wanted to move to England and never tried to settle. Aguero is very similar though.}

26 May 2025 12:56:31
Hi Eds, do you have any latest on which wingers we are looking at if any? I would have liked Eze or Gordan, but with Palace in Europa and Newcastle in the CL, they look unlikely. We missed out on Marmoush and will have to compete with many clubs for Nico Williams. We need someone who can hit the ground running and preferably with premier league experience.

{Ed001's Note - Rafael Leao and Gittens seem to be the main two targets.}

26 May 2025 13:36:53
Thanks Ed, Leao is a good player but hasn’t lived up to the hype, Gittens also is one for the future but any additional depth to the squad will be welcome.

29 May 2025 02:26:39
I would be chuffed with Gittens, 20 y/ o with 8 goals and 3 assists for BvB? Sign me up. Williams would be the premium target but doubt we'd pay the asking price.

24 May 2025 11:06:54
Talk going around that Nwaneri isn't signing a new contract. That will be a huge disappointment because the kid showed a lot of promise.

24 May 2025 14:43:20
That will be a very bad situation, us mates were discussing if we get another winger and Martinelli and Trossard stay, then it will greatly limit Nwaneri’s game time so should he be sent on loan? He should be developed as Odegard’s successor and rotate with him if he doesn’t go on loan.

{Ed014's Note - Max Dowman is waiting in the wings.

25 May 2025 07:21:09
14, you reckon Dowman is a better prospect than Nwaneri? I've never seen him play so don't know much about him.

{Ed014's Note - to be honest he looks like he is but at only 15 it’s difficult to know and I’m not a fan of putting undue pressure on youngsters.

It’s not that I don’t think Nwaneri will be class, he really needs a good run and I wouldn’t want to lose him for sure.

25 May 2025 22:51:25
I'm surprised to hear we're extending Trossards contract, two back up LWs? .
Nwanieri has bags of potential and he'll know he's good enough to play but rightly doesn't fancy his chances of taking Ode or Saka's positions. You'd very much hope we'd send on loan or at the very least include a buy back, but this PSR nonsense has really been financially motivating teams to sell off all their academy talent.
I hope he stays.

26 May 2025 02:51:36
Are there genuine rumours or is it all coming from Ben White saying that it's unfortunate Nwaneri has Saka and Odegaard ahead of him? He's still a kid and he'll get a lot of games. Saka needs a rest from time to time and Odegaard has not been untouchable this season.

Agree that Dowman looks unbelievable though. Long term surely we want to be starting both if they progress like they have been?

26 May 2025 17:41:40
Have a look at Dowmans reels on Youtube, kid is a phenom.

26 May 2025 20:45:28
Scored a beauty for England under 17s against Czechia.

{Ed014's Note - he’s a gem mate, got to hold on to him!

26 May 2025 20:50:35
Think that's why Arteta is pulling him into the squad at such a young age mate and deffo.

{Ed014's Note - fingers crossed mate, hopefully get some minutes next season in the cup games.

23 May 2025 19:38:00
Reading we are back in for Sesko, not sure he is what we need if i'm honest.

23 May 2025 22:24:08
He’s quality Sparky. Loads of potential as well.
I’d personally prefer Gyokeres just because he’s played in England before but I’d be very happy with Sesko.

21 May 2025 16:18:43
Sky Sports saying we are in talks for Rodrygo, hope we get Delboy as well.

21 May 2025 16:31:51
We already have grandad

Saga where are you.

21 May 2025 16:53:43
and Trigger [ Sharpie ].

21 May 2025 17:19:14
And Sally is Marlene.

22 May 2025 19:31:54
Can I be the Uncle.

22 May 2025 20:36:15
Sure Billy.

22 May 2025 20:47:54
Im Tony Angelino.

22 May 2025 20:55:50
Mickey Pearce more like!

23 May 2025 18:45:03
Dags is Boysie.

26 May 2025 09:54:06
Are all these people from the same show?

26 May 2025 09:56:10
Just did a bit of googling and surely Helder needs to be Uncle Albert who is, according to google, consistently late or delayed.

26 May 2025 10:55:32
😂😂😂.

27 May 2025 23:20:51
Definitely not Marlene Malaga lol.

19 May 2025 13:34:23
Hi eds. does viktor gyokeres have a release clause in his contract? Does Arsenal have an interest in him?

{Ed001's Note - he is in Portugal, like Spain it is a requirement there. Yes Arsenal have been tracking him.}

19 May 2025 18:51:41
Thanks ed.

{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}

20 May 2025 18:08:02
His release clause is reported to be €100m but it is believed he will be sold for around €65m.

16 May 2025 07:53:14
I am reading a lot about trying to sign Andrey Santos, can any of the Eds enlighten me on this?

{Ed001's Note - a number of clubs are interested, but Chelsea have yet to make a decision on him. He had such a good season, but they already have Caicedo and Lavia for the role, so I expect he will be sold for a good offer though.}

18 May 2025 13:12:05
Ed001

I think due to Lavia's injury record, we will bring Santos back for next season starting with the CWC.

16 May 2025 07:52:45
Hearing you guys might get Zubimendi (done deal I think) , Gyokeres and would like Williams too - would be a cracking transfer window that for you folks.

17 May 2025 12:06:58
We can dream Bill 😊.

17 May 2025 15:14:07
Following the loss of some good Hale end prospects last summer in particular. Great to see Arteta developing and now also seeing the importance and value of focusing on Hale End youth development alongside acquisitions. MLS and Nwaneri were important this season. looking forward to seeing Dowman next season.

16 May 2025 00:17:12
The transfer window is shaping Up and will be a defining one for Arteta.
Goalie: Joan Garcia
Left Full Back/ cb- Kiwior will probably look for more play, Tierney leaving, Zinny probably will go to Germany. I was disappointed that Dean Huijsen wants RM, and our new LB/ LCB could be Mika Marmol of Las Palmas or Club Brugge’s Joel Ordonez.
DM :- with Jorginio and probably Partey leaving expectations are that two Mods will be arriving. Zubimendi and Possibly Golden favourite with Rogers in the mix.
New 9 : Viktor Gyokeres with Sesko still under consideration. Would like to see.

16 May 2025 07:58:12
Who would you go for out of Sesko and Gyokeres, punk? I personally think Gyokeres would hit the ground running and has experience of the English game, so I’d go for him. Although missing out on Sesko could be a mistake as he looks like he has a huge amount of potential.
Both are exactly what we need though- a bulldozer through the middle 💪.

17 May 2025 15:05:00
Agree had accidentally hit send (being pressured to hurry) would like to see Gyokeres. Feel that adding Liam Delap would be great addition as well.
