Arsenal transfer target Youri Tielemans refuses to commit future to Leicester as midfielder sets sights on more trophies
by Philippa Kaur 12 June 2022, 21:30
YOURI TIELEMANS is desperate to copy Belgium pal Kevin de Bruyne and win more major trophies.The Leicester midfield ace, who is a £25million summer target for Arsenal, got his hands on the FA Cup in 2021 by scoring the Wembley winner over Chelsea.

Tielemans refused to add more fuel to the talk of a switch to the Gunners but the 25-year-old admits he has his eyes on claiming more domestic silverware – just like KDB – who has won ten titles with Manchester City.
Tielemans said: “Every player wants that. That is just natural when you are in the game, you want to win trophies.
“That is the best feeling to win trophies. Obviously every player would say the same, definitely.”
Tielemans showed just why Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has made him a transfer target when he coolly stroked home Belgium’s opener in the 1-1 Nations League draw with Wales on Saturday night.
When asked for an update on his future, Tielemans, who has one year left on his Foxes contract, added: “No sorry. I have expressed myself on that before and there is nothing new. I don’t think this is the moment and place to discuss that.”
Tielemans will be part of the Red Devils’ squad against Poland on Tuesday before he starts his holidays. He said: “We have so many games that we need breaks.”
But Tielemans, who scored seven goals for Leicester last season, wants to add more goals to his game after netting for Belgium for the fifth time.
He added: “It was a really good goal from a great combination. If I can add more goals to my game then of course it will help the team more and I will be happy.

“With the national team we always play with a different system than we play at Leicester.
“It is different and adapting myself. I just need to adapt tactically. The manager has asked me to try and join in the attacks sometimes when I feel I can do that.
“Playing for your country is the best thing that can happen to you. It means you are doing well and representing your country. It is the best feeling ever.”
Will anything top that FA Cup goal? Tielemans replied: “Hopefully I have still got a bit more years ahead of me so maybe there will be another one that will come. But at the moment that is the best one.” More

Pochettino set to be SACKED by PSG, Darwin Nunez set for Liverpool medical, Spurs want £51m Richarlison – latest
by Philippa Kaur 12 June 2022, 16:01
LIVERPOOL are poised to complete the signing of Darwin Nunez from Benfica TOMORROW. The Reds are set to pay £85million for the Uruguayan’s services.
Meanwhile, Tottenham are reportedly on the verge of sealing a £51million deal to sign Richarlison from Everton.
Spurs have already bagged Ivan Perisic on a free from Inter Milan this summer, and they’re further looking to bolster their attacking options.
Bayern Munich are preparing to watch star striker Robert Lewandowski walk out the door, with Barcelona hot in the Polish man’s signature.
But SunSport can reveal Man Utd are also in contention for him, but only if Barca stall on negotiations.
Elsewhere, Paul Pogba still doesn’t know who he will be playing for next season, but it’s been said he’s waiting on Zinedine Zidane’s next managerial move before he makes his decision.
Both PSG and Juventus are interested in the Frenchman.

Suarez shock move
Liverpool legend Luis Suarez is reportedly being lined up for a shock transfer to Atalanta.
Marca claims the Italians have joined the race for Suarez after slumping to a disappointing eighth-place finish in Serie A.
And with the veteran striker looking to stay in Europe this summer, Atalanta could now be in pole position for his signature.
Suarez, 35, is a free agent after leaving Atletico Madrid this month.
He scored 34 goals in 83 games for Diego Simeone’s side, winning LaLiga in 2021.
Pirlo confirmed
And there it is.
The most stylish man in football, Andrea Pirlo, has secured his second job in management.
The Italian has joined Turkish top-flight side Fatih Karagümrük SK.
Pirlo previously managed Juventus, where he won the Coppa Italia and Italian Super Cup.
City prepare Phillips bid
Leeds reportedly face a battle to keep Kalvin Phillips as Manchester City prepare a £60million summer bid.
The Mail claims Phillips is ready to leave Elland Road after 12 years of service.
And the England international, 26, is now on the hunt for a new agency after his previous agreement expired last week.
Phillips has gone from strength to strength in 234 appearances for Leeds.
And Premier League champions City are lining up a mega-money swoop as they look to retain the title.
McAtee in contact with Huddersfield
Man City midfielder James McAtee could be cleared to speak to Huddersfield after England Under-21 duty.
Carlos Corberan has been in contact with Etihad chiefs about a season-long loan for the 19-year-old.
Championship play-off finalists Huddersfield are edging ahead of Swansea in the chase for McAtee.
The Terriers’ boss may meet for a chat after the Young Lions’ Euro qualifier against Slovenia tomorrow.
McAtee is a product of the Manchester City academy, and featured six times in total for the senior side over the course of the recent season.
Eriksen future plans
Christian Eriksen is set to make a decision regarding his future next week, with Brentford desperate to keep hold of him.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Brentford have made a significant offer to try and keep Eriksen in West London next season.
It may not be enough, however, with bigger clubs chasing the attacking midfielder.
PSG part ways with Poch
Paris Saint-Germain have parted company with Mauricio Pochettino by mutual consent, according to reports.
The former Tottenham manager departs the Parc des Princes after 18 months at the helm.
According to The Athletic, both parties agreed it would be better to move on during an end of season meeting last week.
Zinedine Zidane, Jose Mourinho and Christophe Galtier are among the favourites to replace Pochettino.
Matic to Roma edges closer
Nemanja Matic is on the cusp of becoming a Roma player.
The Serbian international will undergo a medical tomorrow in Italy before being unveiled by the Serie A club.
He will join them on a one-year deal with the option to extend, according to Fabrizio Romano.
PSG chase Lewandowksi transfer
Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly entered the transfer chase to sign Robert Lewandowski.
Lewandowski has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona ever since.
However, L’Equipe now claims that PSG have identified him as a top target.
And they are allegedly determined to win the race to secure his signature.
Man United are also said to be tracking the striker.
Liverpool close in on Nunez transfer
Liverpool are on the verge of completing Darwin Nunez.
The Reds will have a meeting TODAY with Benfica after having a verbal agreement that just needs signing, according to Fabrizio Romano.
A five-year contract has been agreed.
And the transfer fee will be £68m plus a £17m add on fee.
Lewandowski exit looms
Robert Lewandowski is set to leave Bayern this summer
But Bayern are wasting no time in finding his replacement.
The German giants have already identified a few options who can fill the Pole’s boots.
That’s the admission Bayern’s transfer chief Hasan Salihamidzic made when talking on the club’s transfer plans.
He said: “We’re working on several options in attack.”
Tottenham plan Richarlison bid
Tottenham are reportedly planning to make a transfer bid for Everton ace Richarlison next week.
Arsenal, Chelsea and a host of European clubs including PSG have been in contact with the Toffees over the striker.
But Spurs plan to win his signature by making a concrete offer for the Brazilian in the coming days, according to 90min.
However, Spurs will have to table a hefty bid as Everton reportedly want £60m for the striker.

Wilshere tips Jesus for Arsenal
Jack Wilshere has tipped Mikel Arteta’s relationship with Gabriel Jesus to swing the balance when it comes to signing the Brazilian.
The Gunners remain interested in the Man City man, but face competition from the rivals.
Although Wilshere thinks the Gunners have a good chance of securing his services.
Wilshere told talkSPORT: “I think they will be queuing up to sign him. Arsenal will have a big chance of signing him because of his relationship with Mikel Arteta.
“I can see Newcastle going for him as well but I would love to see him at Arsenal.”
‘Cheeky’ Lukaku bid
Paul Merson believes the Gunners should make a “cheeky” bid for Chelsea’s out-of-favour forward Romelu Lukaku.
“Arsenal should make a cheeky £60m bid for Romelu Lukaku this summer,” he wrote in his Daily Star column.
“Because if Chelsea are so desperate to let him go that they’re talking about loaning him to Inter Milan, surely they would take the money! Arsenal haven’t had someone who is big and strong and dynamic like that since Kevin Campbell.
“I know he hasn’t scored a lot of goals this season but Lukaku is an elite goalscorer. Arsenal play great football up to the edge of the box but then it often fizzles out.
“Arsenal have runners who could get in behind him and supply him with crosses. I would like to think Arsenal is a club Lukaku would consider. They’re talking about him going back to Inter Milan but Arsenal are as big a club as Inter. Arsenal may not be in the Champions League next season, but Inter are not winning it are they?”
Flores praised by Mexico boss
Arsenal star Marcelo Flores was praised for his talent by Mexico boss Tata Martino.
He said of Flores: “Marcelo is everything a coach expects, that the player has those desires to assert his dribbling, he does what we all expect of him, he executes the ‘one on one’, which is one of the best qualities and the penalty is anecdotal.
“It’s fine…We had Santi, Chávez and Orbelín, Santi decided to give it to him and the boy is in the dressing room crying inconsolably, and it’s sad because this career has many disappointments.
“But everything that happened is well, everything is experience and everything is knowledge; Marcelo is something different, he needs peace of mind and hopefully they can give it to him.”
No Chill
Italy star Giorgio Chiellini has spoken on grabbing Bukayo Saka’s shirt in the Euro 2020 final.
“It was in the 90th minute and I’d read the flight of the ball, thinking I could shepherd it out of play when really I could have controlled it.
“But I was convinced I could put my body between Saka and the ball and let it go out of play, but he wriggled round me.”
“When he wriggled round from behind and had that space to run into, my reaction was to grab him. And I grabbed him good!”
Tavares wanted by Marseille
Struggling Arsenal left-back Nuno Tavares is wanted in a loan transfer by French outfit Marseille, according to reports.
Tavares joined the Gunners last summer from Benfica in a £7.2million transfer
The 22-year-old was handed more game time than what he was most likely expecting last term, with starting left-back Kieran Tierney struggling with injuries.
Tavares was hit and miss for the Gunners.
At times he’d look electric going forward. But often he was defensively vulnerable.
And according to Lions de l’Atlas, Tavares could be handed the chance to improve on loan in France.
Saliba urged to join Marseille
Matteo Guendozi has pledged to “try and push” William Saliba to leave Arsenal and join Marseille permanently.
Speaking to Telefoot, the midfielder said: “William now has Marseille in his heart, and I’m sure that he’ll come back to Marseille next season.
“So I’m going to keep pushing so that he stays with us.”
Asensio transfer race heats up
Arsenal have reportedly joined rivals Tottenham in the transfer chase for Real Madrid’s Marco Asensio.
Tottenham and AC Milan have allegedly already been offered the player.
Now Arsenal are also in the mix to sign him, according to the Daily Mirror.
This latest report claims that the Gunners have “contacted Asensio’s representatives to seek answers” about his and Real’s demands.
Dybala edges closer to Inter move
Paolo Dybala is on the verge of joining Inter Milan, according to reports.
The ex-Juventus striker has nearly agreed terms with Inter, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
And he will meet with representatives from the club imminently to discuss terms, the report adds.
Arteta’s frustration over transfers
Mikel Arteta is reportedly “frustrated by Arsenal’s transfer indecision” as he fears missing out on Gabriel Jesus.
The Gunners are insisting that all major transactions are approved by their American ownership.
And the boss believes that could cost them the chance of securing Manchester City’s Brazilian striker.
Good morning Arsenal fans
The Gunners have reportedly opened negotiations with the representative of Jarrod Bowen, according to reports.The Beautiful Game podcast claims Arsenal have made contact regarding the signing of the West Ham forward – who was in sublime form for the Hammers this season.Bowen earned himself an England call up following a brilliant campaign where he scored 18 goals and made 13 assists in all competitions.The report says that Bowen’s name is on a list of attacking targets that also includes Leeds star Raphina.Fulham are reportedly in talks to sign Arsenal keeper Bernd Leno.The Cottagers are exploring a number of options, but Leno is the preferred target, according to The Athletic.And they may be in luck as Leno wants to remain in London, the report adds.But Fulham are yet to place a bid for the keeper, it was also stated.Arsenal are reportedly interested in a £42million deal for Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.Corriere dello Sport claims the midfielder has emerged as a target for Mikel Arteta, who wants a new No8 this summer.
Asensio monitored
Arsenal are keeping a close eye on Marco Asensio’s contract situation at Real Madrid, according to reports.
The Gunners are one of several clubs who have been alerted to the midfielder – whose contract expires in 12 months.
Los Blancos have offered him a contract extension, however he has so far refused to sign a new deal.
There is a belief at the Bernabeu that he could exit for free, so would want to cash in instead.
Arsenal lose out on wonderkid
The Gunners have missed out on a top South American talent, if reports are to be believed.
Paraguayan wonderkid Julio Enciso is now flying to England to sign for a Premier League club, just months after Arsenal scouts were watching him.
However, it appears the forward is heading for Brighton in an £8million deal, say Sky Sports.
The 18-year-old scored 11 goals in 17 games for his club Libertad last season.
Bent backs Jesus for Gunners
Darren Bent has backed Gabriel Jesus to thrive at Arsenal, if he signs for the Gunners.
“I’d like to see him (Jesus) go to Arsenal. I think he’d be brilliant,” the talkSPORT host said.
“He’s not got a point to prove but I think he needs regular football and I think he’s more than good enough to score the goals to help Arsenal get back to where they’d like to get to. So I think that would be a really good addition to the squad.”
Depay for sale
Barcelona want to sell Arsenal target Memphis Depay, according to a report.
Spanish outlet Sport say that the Catalans are willing to part with the Dutchman to raise funds for other signings.
The Gunners are in desperate need of firepower, after losing Alexandre Lacazette.
And Depay could add much experience to their forward-line.
Xhaka targeted by Bundesliga giants
Bayer Leverkusen are reportedly eyeing up a move for Granit Xhaka.
The Daily Mirror claim that the Swiss midfielder has emerged as a target for the Bundesliga giants, as they prepare for a Champions League campaign next season.
And they have been buoyed in their chase by the fact the Gunners want to bring another midfielder in – ith Youri Tielemans linked to the Emirates.
Roma were also interested in Xhaka in the past – with Jose Mourinho a fan.
Arteta frustration
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is growing frustrated by the club’s indecision in the transfer market, according to a report
The Daily Mail also claim a deal for top transfer target Gabriel Jesus is nowhere near.
The story says the Gunners are reluctant to meet his £50million transfer fee.
While talks over personal terms also haven’t been discussed.
Milinkovic-Savic a shock target
Arsenal are reportedly interested in a £42million deal for Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Corriere dello Sport claims the midfielder has emerged as a target for Mikel Arteta, who wants a new No8 this summer.
Leicester’s Youri Tielemans is thought to be the Gunners boss’ preferred option.
But it’s reckoned that Granit Xhaka is once again attracting interest from Jose Mourinho’s Roma.
And Arsenal may end up needing two new top midfielders.
Milinkovic-Savic has scored 58 goals in 294 games for Lazio, having joined from Genk in 2015.
Arsenal target Bowen
The Gunners have reportedly opened negotiations with the representative of Jarrod Bowen, according to reports.
The Beautiful Game podcast claims Arsenal have made contact regarding the signing of the West Ham forward – who was in sublime form for the Hammers this season.
Bowen earned himself an England call up following a brilliant campaign where he scored 18 goals and made 13 assists in all competitions.
The report says that Bowen’s name is on a list of attacking targets that also includes Leeds star Raphina.
Fulham in Leno talks
Fulham are reportedly in talks to sign Arsenal keeper Bernd Leno.
The Cottagers are exploring a number of options, but Leno is the preferred target, according to The Athletic.
And they may be in luck as Leno wants to remain in London, the report adds.
But Fulham are yet to place a bid for the keeper, it was also stated.
Nketiah edging closer to Arsenal deal
Eddie Nketiah is edging closer to signing a new deal with Arsenal.
That’s according to transfer specialist Charles Watts.
He said on his YouTube channel: “But even yesterday I was talking to someone at the club and…the signs are that they’re going pretty well.
“And they do think Eddie Nketiah will commit his future to the Arsenal.”
Forest ‘plot Maitland-Niles transfer’
Nottingham Forest are considering a swoop for Arsenal star Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
The Mirror states that newly-promoted Nottingham Forest are plotting a swoop.
This fresh report states that they have already contacted Arsenal with regards to a possible transfer.
Maitland-Niles only has 12 months remaining on his Gunners contract and, after being deemed surplus to requirements by Mikel Arteta, they will likely be keen to cash in rather than lose him for nothing next year.
Suspect arrested for Willian threats
Police in Brazil have arrested a man after former Arsenal and Chelsea star Willian was sent chilling death threats.
Willian received heinous messages threatening him with bullets and knives online.
This caused the Corinthians winger to get the police involved as he feared his wife and two young daughters would also be targeted, the Mirror reported.
And now the Barra Funda Strategic Special Operations division have revealed they’ve detained a 21-year-old man.
The perpetrator will be charged for the offence despite claiming he never expected the threats to be taken seriously, the report added.
Arsenal given transfer tip
Arsenal have been urged to make a swoop for Manchester United target Christopher Nkunku by Darren Bent.
Bent told talkSPORT: “And Christopher Nkunku. [He would cost] a lot. There’s talk about him going back to Paris Saint-Germain.
‘”But I’d love him. I think he fits the bill, he can play centre-forward, he can play off the left, he can play off the right.”
City want to keep Jesus
Man City want Gabriel Jesus to pen a new contract, according to reports.
According to 90min, Pep Guardiola’s side feel that they have offered Jesus a “very good deal” in a bid to entice him to stay.
Guardiola values the forward highly, having started him in both legs of City’s Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid.
Why Jesus should join Chelsea
Gabriel Jesus should move to Chelsea as he’ll be supported by rookies Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith-Rowe at Arsenal.
That’s according to Stan Collymore who also questioned whether the Gunners duo will be at the club in two year’s time.
He said to the Mirror: “At Arsenal, with the support cast they have, which is still two rookies in Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka — and we don’t know for sure that they will still be wearing Gunners shirts in two years’ time, with Saka being linked with Liverpool and City.
“If I was Jesus I would be thinking of myself in the blue shirt at Stamford Bridge.”

He said: “I belong to Arsenal, I still have two years left there. I will be there for pre-season.”
The £27million signing from Saint-Etienne in 2019 admitted in April that he doesn’t want to return to the Gunners unless he is a regular starter.
He revealed: “For six months, I saw that I was the the only one in the group not to play, it hurt.
“I’m sure I can’t just be on the bench at Arsenal and be happy. I want to play as a starter.

“Afterwards, if I come into the rotation as a substitute, it’s not like staying with the Under-23s and never being in the squad.”
Saliba played in 36 of Marseille’s 38 Ligue 1 matches last season, helping his side rocket to a second place finish.
He has loved his time in the South of France, gushing in April: “This club and the supporters are magnificent so I want to make the most of it by the end of the season, as if I’m not going to come back.
“There are two months left, I want to savour every moment, especially at home.
“After that, we’ll see. If I come back, it will be with great, great pleasure.”

Arsenal ‘contact Asensio’s agents’ to find out wage demands as they join Spurs in transfer hunt for Real Madrid ace
by Philippa Kaur 12 June 2022, 09:03
ARSENAL have reportedly joined rivals Tottenham in the transfer chase for Real Madrid’s Marco Asensio.The midfielder’s future at the Bernabeu is up in the air despite him helping them to both LaLiga and Champions League joy this season.

Asensio only has 12 months remaining on his deal.
The 26-year-old has been offered an extension by Madrid – and he has been given a deadline of June 20 to sign it.
However, the Spanish international’s demands have not been fully met and there is a belief that he will snub it.
Rather than lose him for nothing next summer, Madrid would rather cash in and sell him now.

‘make contact’ for Jarrod Bowen, Milinkovic-Savic interest
Tottenham and AC Milan have allegedly already been offered the player.
Now Arsenal are also in the mix to sign him, according to the Daily Mirror.
This latest report claims that the Gunners have “contacted Asensio’s representatives to seek answers” about his and Real’s demands.
The former Mallorca ace is looking for assurances that he will get regular starts, something he has failed to get at Madrid.

Asensio is also happy to remain at Madrid and play out the final campaign of his package before leaving for nothing.
But Madrid are looking for a resolution and are waiting for him to finish national duty with Spain before resuming talks.
This latest report also states that Manchester United have enquired about Asensio’s situation.
But they have only “informally” asked about him and are yet to follow that up. More

The Mirror claims Xhaka could be on his way to Germany this summer.
The 29-year-old is no stranger to the Bundesliga, having spent four seasons at Borussia Monchengladbach.
Since leaving them in 2016, Xhaka has made 250 appearances for the Gunners.
And with just two years left on his contract, the Switzerland international could be on his way out.

Arsenal target £17million Simeone, Gunners ‘enter Raphinha race’, Gabriel Jesus transfer price drops to £45m – updates
by Philippa Kaur 11 June 2022, 15:46
ARSENAL are reportedly interested in signing Cagliari striker Giovanni Simeone. The Gunners are also said to have entered the race to sign Raphinha from Leeds, according to reports.
They’re also keen on Ruben Neves, who is said to be happy with a move to either the Gunners or Manchester United this summer.
Barcelona are also rumoured to be interested but more recent reports suggest they have turned their attention to Bernardo Silva.
Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Arsenal have completed the signing of Sao Paulo winger Marquinhos.
Arsenal have also received a major boost in their pursuit of Gabriel Jesus this summer.
Manchester City’s initial asking price was a reported £55 million, but the Premier League winners have lowered their asking price to £45m.

Milinkovic-Savic a shock target
Arsenal are reportedly interested in a £42million deal for Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
Corriere dello Sport claims the midfielder has emerged as a target for Mikel Arteta, who wants a new No8 this summer.
Leicester’s Youri Tielemans is thought to be the Gunners boss’ preferred option.
But it’s reckoned that Granit Xhaka is once again attracting interest from Jose Mourinho’s Roma.
And Arsenal may end up needing two new top midfielders.
Milinkovic-Savic has scored 58 goals in 294 games for Lazio, having joined from Genk in 2015.
Arsenal target Bowen
The Gunners have reportedly opened negotiations with the representative of Jarrod Bowen, according to reports.
The Beautiful Game podcast claims Arsenal have made contact regarding the signing of the West Ham forward – who was in sublime form for the Hammers this season.
Bowen earned himself an England call up following a brilliant campaign where he scored 18 goals and made 13 assists in all competitions.
The report says that Bowen’s name is on a list of attacking targets that also includes Leeds star Raphina.
Fulham in Leno talks
Fulham are reportedly in talks to sign Arsenal keeper Bernd Leno.
The Cottagers are exploring a number of options, but Leno is the preferred target, according to The Athletic.
And they may be in luck as Leno wants to remain in London, the report adds.
But Fulham are yet to place a bid for the keeper, it was also stated.
Nketiah edging closer to Arsenal deal
Eddie Nketiah is edging closer to signing a new deal with Arsenal.
That’s according to transfer specialist Charles Watts.
He said on his YouTube channel: “But even yesterday I was talking to someone at the club and…the signs are that they’re going pretty well.
“And they do think Eddie Nketiah will commit his future to the Arsenal.”
Forest ‘plot Maitland-Niles transfer’
Nottingham Forest are considering a swoop for Arsenal star Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
The Mirror states that newly-promoted Nottingham Forest are plotting a swoop.
This fresh report states that they have already contacted Arsenal with regards to a possible transfer.
Maitland-Niles only has 12 months remaining on his Gunners contract and, after being deemed surplus to requirements by Mikel Arteta, they will likely be keen to cash in rather than lose him for nothing next year.
Suspect arrested for Willian threats
Police in Brazil have arrested a man after former Arsenal and Chelsea star Willian was sent chilling death threats.
Willian received heinous messages threatening him with bullets and knives online.
This caused the Corinthians winger to get the police involved as he feared his wife and two young daughters would also be targeted, the Mirror reported.
And now the Barra Funda Strategic Special Operations division have revealed they’ve detained a 21-year-old man.
The perpetrator will be charged for the offence despite claiming he never expected the threats to be taken seriously, the report added.
Arsenal given transfer tip
Arsenal have been urged to make a swoop for Manchester United target Christopher Nkunku by Darren Bent.
Bent told talkSPORT: “And Christopher Nkunku. [He would cost] a lot. There’s talk about him going back to Paris Saint-Germain.
‘”But I’d love him. I think he fits the bill, he can play centre-forward, he can play off the left, he can play off the right.”
City want to keep Jesus
Man City want Gabriel Jesus to pen a new contract, according to reports.
According to 90min, Pep Guardiola’s side feel that they have offered Jesus a “very good deal” in a bid to entice him to stay.
Guardiola values the forward highly, having started him in both legs of City’s Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid.
Why Jesus should join Chelsea
Gabriel Jesus should move to Chelsea as he’ll be supported by rookies Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith-Rowe at Arsenal.
That’s according to Stan Collymore who also questioned whether the Gunners duo will be at the club in two year’s time.
He said to the Mirror: “At Arsenal, with the support cast they have, which is still two rookies in Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka — and we don’t know for sure that they will still be wearing Gunners shirts in two years’ time, with Saka being linked with Liverpool and City.
“If I was Jesus I would be thinking of myself in the blue shirt at Stamford Bridge.”
Jesus tipped for Chelsea transfer
Gabriel Jesus could fill the void at Chelsea left by Romelu Lukaku who is tipped to leave the Blues this summer.
That’s the opinion of Stan Collymore who reckons Jesus can provide the goals Lukaku failed to at Stamford Bridge.
Collymore told The Mirror: “But if he goes to Chelsea he could be the player Romelu Lukaku was promised to be but wasn’t.
“At Chelsea, they create loads of chances, they will stick the ball in the box and Jesus can be the fox in the box I’ve so often said they need.
“If Jesus just concentrated on doing some really good work in the box, he could be that man.”
Arteta’s managerial ability worries
Mikel Arteta may be unable to extract the best out of Jesus if he moves to Arsenal.
That’s the view of Stan Collymore who told The Mirror: “But let’s say Arsenal get him, my general worry and concern about Arsenal, as ever, is could we trust Mikel Arteta to get the best out of Jesus?
“Could he be the manager who makes him fulfill his potential, if Pep Guardiola couldn’t? I don’t think so.”
Chelsea interest in Gabriel Jesus
Arsenal may have to fend off interest from Chelsea to sign Gabriel Jesus from Man City.
That’s the view of Stan Collymore who reckons the Blues could enter the race for the Brazilian.
Collymore told the Mirror: “I don’t think anyone can say Jesus has filled the boots of Sergio Aguero but his goals-to-games ratio has been very good and, when he has been asked to step up, he has done.
“There are rumours of Chelsea sniffing around as well and I don’t think Arsenal will be the only club in the race for him this summer.”
Trossard tipped for Brighton exit
Leandro Trossard has been tipped to leave Brighton for a bigger club this summer by Paul Merson.
Merson said to Sportskeeda: “With the talent Trossard’s got, it wouldn’t surprise me if he played a role for the national team at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, so teams interested in him should probably look to snap him up this summer before his value soares.
“There are a couple of other players I could have picked from Brighton because they are a really good football-playing side, but I just like the way Trossard plays and have always felt that he’s a bit underrated.
“No disrespect to Brighton, but he can go higher and easily turn out for one of the top teams in the Premier League.”
Arteta’s anger with board
Mikel Arteta is reportedly becoming frustrated by Arsenal’s dithering in the transfer market.
The Gunners are yet to land anybody from their extensive list of transfer targets that includes Man City striker Gabriel Jesus.
And this has incensed Arteta who isn’t happy that all deals have to be stamped by club owners Josh or Stan Kroenke, according to the Daily Mail.
Arteta fears this lengthy process could impede Arsenal’s hopes of signing Jesus and other targets, the report adds.
Arsenal chase Sergej Milinkovic-Savic
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is the latest midfielder reportedly on Arsenal’s wishlist.
The Gunners are considering tabling a £42million to sign the Serbian international, according to Corriere dello Sport.
And the North Londoners are willing to increase the offer to entice Lazio into selling him, the report adds.
Good morning Arsenal fans
Cagliari striker Giovanni Simeone is a summer target for the Gunners, according to Tutto Mercato Web.It’s claimed Arsenal and Juventus could battle it out for Simeone’s signature after he scored 17 league goals while on loan at Hellas Verona last season.Verona are expected to trigger their option to buy the 26-year-old, before selling him on for around £17m.Elsewhere, England boss Gareth Southgate has claimed Bukayo Saka would make the perfect son-in-law.The Three Lions manager has heaped praise on the Gunners starlet, saying: “He’s a fabulous kid.”If your daughter brings Bukayo home, you’d be more than happy!”And finally Arsenal are the latest club to be considering a bid for Leeds United ace Raphinha, according to The Telegraph.The Brazilian is widely expected to depart Elland Road this summer.Barcelona had been considered favourites to land the forward, but their financial constraints may make it difficult to finalise a deal – and now the Gunners are hoping to take advantage.The Londoners will make an attractive offer for Raphinha, supplemented by the sale of record signing Nicolas Pepe.
Southgate: Saka the perfect son-in-law
Gareth Southgate reckons Bukayo Saka would make the perfect son-in-law, writes CHARLIE WYETT.
Arsenal star Saka, 20, was subjected to vile abuse after missing from the penalty spot in the Euro 2020 final against Italy.
But he is a popular character within the England squad.
And Southgate was full of praise for the Gunners talent, saying: “He’s a fabulous kid.
“If your daughter brings Bukayo home, you’d be more than happy!
“His family have been brilliant with him. Here, he felt the love of the players and staff immediately after the Euros.
“That will have helped, in the immediate aftermath for him. He’s a fantastic talent.”
Elba eyeing two signings
Idris Elba wants Arsenal to sign a new striker and midfielder this summer.
Boss Mikel Arteta is expected to dip into the transfer window ahead of a return to European football next season.
And when asked who Elba would sign, he told Sky Sports: “I’m not the guy to answer that if I’m really honest.
“But I would say that if I could pick where I wanted to strengthen I would put some legs up front for sure.
“And I would certainly bolster in the midfield for some creative play.”
Idris Elba: “I am Arteta in”
Actor Idris Elba reckons Arsenal will be successful under Mikel Arteta.
The Gunners blew fourth-place in the table to rivals Tottenham after losing two out of their final three games of the season.
But Elba is confident the club are on the right track under the Spaniard.
He told Sky Sports: “Listen I am Arteta in. I trust the process. All processes have kinks, they’re going to have things that fall over.
“But in this case I think our team is getting stronger. It is a young team and the thing about youth is you pick them up, they get back up and they learn from it.
“There’s nothing worse than a team that doesn’t learn from its mistakes and I’m hoping next season they come back with a lot of confidence.”
Arsenal biggest ever transfers
Gabriel Jesus continues to be linked with a switch to Arsenal, and reports suggest any move would be around the £45million mark.
That would make the Brazilian striker Arsenal’s joint-fifth most expensive signing of all time, tying the sum paid for Thomas Partey.
But it’s still almost £30m less than the whopping £72m shelled out on flop winger Nicolas Pepe, who could leave the club in a cut-price deal this summer.
Morata Prem move off the cards
Juventus striker Alvaro Morata will NOT be moving to the Premier League this summer, according to reports.
The 29-year-old former Chelsea frontman has been linked with both Arsenal and Newcastle in recent weeks.
But, according to GOAL, a Prem switch is not an option.
Morata will either head back to parent club Atletico Madrid next season, or continue at Juventus.
The Spaniard has spent the last two seasons on loan at Juve.
Yet another loan switch has been mooted, with Juve reluctant to pay the £30million Atletico want to sell Morata permanently.
Gunners in for Leandro Trossard
Reports in Belgium claim Arsenal are keen on signing Brighton star Leandro Trossard.
The 24-year-old scored eight Premier League goals for the Seagulls last season.
And according to Voetbal, his form has attracted the attention of the Gunners.
Trossard, capped 17 times by Belgium, has spent the last three years on the South Coast after signing from Genk in 2019.

Bent names three dream signings
Former Aston Villa striker Darren Bent wants the Gunners to make three statement signings this summer.
He said on talkSPORT: “I’m led to believe it’s quite close [a move for] Gabriel Jesus. I’d like to see him go to Arsenal. I think he would be brilliant.”
Bent then added: “I’d love to see Yves Bissouma from Brighton. I think he’s top-drawer.”
“I love Thomas Partey but again he’s had his injuries and consistency has been a problem. But he’s durable Yves Bissouma so I think I would like to see him through the door.
“And Christian Nkunku from RB Leipzig.”
Arsenal eyeing Giovanni Simeone
The Gunners are keen to add a striker to their ranks this summer, and have been heavily linked with Manchester City star Gabriel Jesus.
But the Brazilian forward isn’t the only name on Mikel Arteta’s shortlist.
Cagliari striker Giovanni Simeone is also a target, according to Tutto Mercato Web.
It’s claimed the Gunners and Juventus could battle it out for Simeone’s signature, after he scored 17 league goals while on loan at Hellas Verona.
Verona have an option to buy the 26-year-old, which they are expected to trigger, before immediately selling him for a hefty profit.
Reports claim the Argentinian forward would cost around £17million.

Lopes key in Laca switch
Alexandre Lacazette has revealed Lyon star Anthony Lopes has been begging him non-stop to re-join the club for the last SIX MONTHS.
Frenchman Lacazette has officially signed for Lyon on a free transfer after leaving Arsenal.
And nobody will be more delighted than goalkeeper Lopes.
Lacazette said at his unveiling: “There have been a lot of changes since I left.
“The club is progressing well. Antho (Lopes), he has been writing to me every week for six months to find out if I have made my decision.”
