      Reports suggest the Gunners have tabled a £33m bid for the winger.
      The North Londoners were handed a huge pursuit in the race for Pino after Villarreal boss Unai Emery admitted they might have to sell him if the right bid comes along.
      Pino would be a welcome addition to Arsenal’s new-look attack, spearheaded by Gabriel Jesus who scored a brace against Leicester City as the Gunners clinched their second win of the season.
      Now fans reckon Edu’s en route to Spain to finalise the deal for Pino.

      A man at least resembling the Arsenal supremo was spotted boarding a Ryanair flight to Valencia on Sunday, on Twitter.
      And a Twitter user insisted Edu was planning to briefly stop in Valencia before travelling to Villarreal to bring Pino back to the Emirates.
      They wrote: “Quick flight to Valencia, followed by a private car to Villarreal which is roughly 35miles away.
      “Face to face discussions required with Yeremy and his family to talk about the future.”

      Although another user claimed Edu’s family’s on holiday in the region, and he was going to join them.
      But Ryanair further flanned the flames by retweeting the image, and saying: “Edu, PINO(t) on the return flight?”
      Edu’s already made it clear that Arsenal are still intent on bringing in more players before the transfer window closes.
      It was thought the Gunners were keen on recruiting Leicester City ace Youri Tielemans this summer.
      But fresh reports claim they may be willing to wait until next summer to sign the Belgium international on a free transfer. More

      And the Arsenal brass are said to have been laying the foundations for a summer swoop for the Belgian for the last few “months”.
      Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano said: “As for Tielemans and how this is all affecting him – my understanding is that he is a great guy, an excellent professional, and someone who is only focused on the present.
      “Of course, he would like a top club. Arsenal have been in contact with his agents for months but have never submitted an official proposal yet.
      “Tielemans remains a name on the Gunners’ list but surprises cannot be ruled out.”

      Tielemans, 25, has one year left on his contract at the King Power Stadium but has shown no sign of extending his stay in the Midlands.
      But the Foxes are reportedly not in a rush to sell the Belgium international.
      In fact, they’re willing to let him run down his contract and leave on a free transfer next summer.
      Manager Brendan Rodgers told The Times: “It’s not ideal but it’s happened before — players have left here for free before.

      “The club will be negotiating and talking with the players’ representatives across the squad.
      “Thus far, there’s no change in Youri’s situation, there’s no offers. So he’s just continuing to work well and get himself right at this early part of the season.
      “Youri is a top international so every game he plays, in actual fact every training session Youri plays, he is trying to be the best player he can.
      “There is a lot of speculation about him but he looks to prove a point in every single game he plays.”

      The 27-year-old, from Dorset, has now revealed that one of her clients was a Premier League ace for Arsenal.
      And she insisted that being asked to humiliate the unnamed Gunners footballer was all just part of the job.
      Speaking to the Daily Star, Chloe said: “Nothing really surprises me because they call me the queen of fetishes and there’s nothing really that I don’t cover.
      “Nothing shocks me because I’ve been doing this for so many years and it’s become more of a hobby than a job.

      “It’s always the high-end people like lawyers, footballers and police officers who call up.”
      Recalling the memorable video call with the Gunners ace, Chloe continued: “He spent around £1,000 and he wanted to dress up like a girl.
      “He had a full set of white lingerie on and he had full blown lipstick, a wig, the works.
      “With the footballers calling in I always think it’s crazy how they can go from having such a high-powered job and being so professional to then in their private lives being in front of a screen for something that is a complete taboo.”

      Another Babestation model, Jess West, previously told the Daily Star, how footballers call her sex line with some mistaking her for an escort.
      The Essex babe said: “I’ve had famous people call me on Babestation and you get footballers, particularly the younger generation, calling up and saying they play for so and so.
      “They ask how much it would be to book me and I’m always like ‘you can’t book me, this is phone sex’.
      “It was always the footballers who would call and straight away drop in who they are.
      “They say things like, ‘oh you are so beautiful I just couldn’t help but talk to you’ and they ask to go on a date. Again I say it’s phone sex, it’s not like that.
      “But because they are footballers and we are on the TV and a lot of us are models they just think ‘oh I like her’ as if it’s a catalogue they can choose from.”

      Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zincheko are final pieces in Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal masterplan – taught by his mentor Pep

      by

      IT’S BEEN nearly three years since Mikel Arteta joined Arsenal – and his masterplan is finally coming together.The Gunners boss made two of the most impressive signings of the summer bringing in Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko.
      Gabriel Jesus has changed the way Arsenal play – and not just his goalsCredit: Getty
      After just two matches this season, you can already see how much those two have transformed the North Londoners.
      Jesus took just 23 minutes to get his Premier League tally off the mark and doubled that shortly after against Leicester today in their 4-2 win.
      But the goals were just one small part of an astonishing display of dynamism, guile and pure dribbling joy.
      He terrorised the Foxes defence all day, making runs in behind and coming short, a guessing game of cat and mouse.

      The Brazilian’s movement hasn’t been seen in a striker at the Emirates for many years, not to this level of quality any way.
      His interplay with the two wingers in Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli was something to behold.
      That, added to the fact Martin Odegaard was back to his best makes Arsenal a frightening prospect against any side.
      But it’s not just the individual ability of Jesus that has made the Gunners a different animal.
      The tactical intelligence of Zinchenko has added a whole new dimension to the way they play.

      The Ukrainian has brought Pep Guardiola’s style with him from Manchester City, albeit with a slight twist.
      When Arsenal defend he sits in at left-back, his regular position where he looks as solid as ever.
      As the Gunners get possession though, he moves into midfield, adding an extra man there to help tick the ball over.

      Granit Xhaka then heads over to cover him in the full-back positon, making Arteta’s team less predictable.
      It’s something Arteta hasn’t been able to do since he joined the club back in 2019.
      But he’s finally got the players he wants in, and can make Arsenal play like Guardiola taught him after all those years together. More

      Jesus looked even more shocked than observers as he held his head in his hands.
      And having put Arsenal 2-0 at the break in a 4-2 triumph, he also wasted other clear opportunities.
      But the Gunners and Prem champs City are the only sides to have so far made it two victories out of two.
      And Brazilian Jesus’ general play was outstanding.

      Fans on social media were stunned by his miss but delighted by the way he has transformed Mikel Arteta’s attack.
      One posted: “2 goals, and 2 assists for Gabriel Jesus in his home debut for Arsenal is a letter to Pep that he can do it as a proper no. 9.”

      He said: “Do Tottenham fans now realize what I meant when I said Gabriel Jesus was the miss of the window for them?

      A William Saliba own goal got the Foxes back into it before Granit Xhaka took advantage of some shocking defending.
      James Maddison then scored through Aaron Ramsdale’s legs before Gabriel Martinelli grabbed a fourth.
      Mikel Arteta’s side continue their 100 per cent record this season, as he looks towards Champions League qualification.
      SunSport were on hand to keep up with all the action at a sold out Emirates this Saturday afternoon.
      READ MORE ON ARSENAL
      AARON RAMSDALE – 6
      Made some solid stops in the first-half, but a slight lapse in concentration almost gifted Jamie Vardy a penalty.
      Should have done better with the Maddison goal and will be disappointed with himself.
      BEN WHITE – 6
      Had a pretty quiet game but dealt well with his defensive duties at right-back.
      He is going to struggle to get in at centre-back this year so needs to make that spot his own.
      WILLIAM SALIBA – 7
      Was looking comfortable all day until a horrendous own goal put Leicester back in the game.
      The youngster managed to steady himself though and dealt well with Vardy all day.
      Most read in Football
      GABRIEL MAGALHAES – 7
      A solid display and marshalled Vardy out of the game alongside Saliba.
      Was a handful in the opposition box all day, and looks to be creating a decent partnership at the back.
      OLEKSANDR ZINCHENKO – 8
      What an incredible buy for the Gunners, completely changing the way Arteta’s side play.
      Looks to be another key piece of the puzzle as the North Londoners continue to transform to a Pep Guardiola-style.
      GRANIT XHAKA – 8
      Looks to have stepped it up another level so far this campaign, making the Gunners tick.
      He already has a brilliant relationship with Zinchenko, covering at left-back when needed.

      THOMAS PARTEY – 7
      Kept the Gunners ticking over and got the ball forward quickly to the attacking players.
      Could have had a goal of his own after hitting the post late on and is getting forward more.
      MARTIN ODEGAARD – 8
      The Gunners captain struggled at Crystal Palace last week, but was back to his best here.
      Found little pockets of space and picked up the ball on the half-turn that Leicester couldn’t handle.
      BUKAYO SAKA – 6
      Quiet by his exceptional standards, but kept going at his full-back all afternoon.
      Will have better days at the Emirates with more influence, but just needs to find a bit of form.
      GABRIEL MARTINELLI – 8
      Has continued his incredible start to the season with another lovely finish from outside the box.
      Some lovely link-up play with Jesus, along with his work-rate down the left, make him an instant start.
      GABRIEL JESUS – 9
      What more can you say about this man? A stunning debut at the Emirates
      Scored twice and could have had five as he terrorised Leicester all afternoon long.
      SUBS:
      TAKEHIRO TOMIYASU (75) – Didn’t have much to do, but was solid.
      KIERAN TIERNEY (77) – Did his job on the left. Kept it simple.

      Arsenal could land Youri Tielemans on free transfer next season as Brendan Rodgers reveals Leicester have NOT had offer

      by

      LEICESTER are willing to let star player Youri Tielemans join Arsenal for free next summer.The Foxes still hold out some hope that the Gunners may make what they deem a suitable bid for the Belgium midfielder.
      Contract rebel Tielemans is refusing to sign a new deal beyond this seasonCredit: Reuters
      However, Arsenal are fully aware that they can simply wait until January and get the playmaker to sign a pre-contract.
      And the Foxes value Tielemans so highly that they would rather get one last season out of him than let him go this summer for a cut-price fee.
      Arsenal have shown the most interest in the former Anderlecht and Monaco star but boss Mikel Arteta has so far failed to follow that up with a concrete bid.
      Tielemans joined Leicester from Monaco in 2019 for £35million after an initial loan spell but has now made it clear he has no intention of extending his deal beyond this season.
