      Arsenal files: Gunners consider shock Leicester star transfer as talks set to be held with ex-Spurs boss

      by

      MARTIN ODEGAARD’S form has been a hot topic after his poor display in Arsenal’s Champions League semi-final first leg 1-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain.But given the club’s injury record and squad make-up this term, the Norwegian is very rarely rested, meaning he must play through bad patches regardless.Martin Odegaard has been come under fire after his performance against PSGCredit: GettyArsenal haven’t decided on the future of midfielder Fabio Vieira, who is on loan at PortoCredit: AlamyYet it is worth remembering that the Gunners do have a young No.10 on their books, who could have provided back-up, in Fabio Vieira – currently on loan back at boyhood club Porto.Vieira returned to the Estadio do Dragao back in August having started just three games in all competitions under Mikel Arteta last season.The £30m splashed on the-then 22-year-old in June 2022 was initially viewed as a positive step to strengthen the squad with a young talent brimming in potential.Nearly three years on and the Portuguese midfielder looks unlikely to have a future at the Emirates. So, what is the situation?Porto would love to bring Vieira back to Portugal permanently, especially after his upturn in form this term from January under new boss Martin Anselmi, scoring three goals in the league since then. But the start to the season under Vitor Bruno was hampered by injury.Vieira will be staying beyond the end of the regular season to compete in the Club World Cup – a stipulation Porto insisted on when negotiating with Arsenal last summer – but there is no option to buy.However, there are a few complications. CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSWhile Vieira has enjoyed living back in Portugal, SunSport understands he has not enjoyed a below-par season with Porto, 13 points off league leaders Sporting Lisbon and set to finish fourth, only qualifying them for the Europa Conference League.Porto are also not in a position to spend this summer, with Arsenal likely to demand close to the £30m they paid for him up front, while Vieira’s wages are also viewed as excessive, something the player is refusing to budge on since arriving in North London.Mikel Arteta slide tackles his own player in training a day before Arsenal’s biggest game of the season vs Real Madrid Arsenal would need to be convinced to let Vieira leave for significantly less than they paid, which is unlikely, and would rather not loan him out for a second successive campaign.Those negotiations would be led by club president and former Chelsea and Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas, but SunSport understands that has not yet happened.The loan fee to lure Vieira away from Arsenal was believed to be around £750k, with another £600k penalty fee if the player did not play more than half of Porto’s games this season.Porto have managed to avoid this, with Vieira featuring in 36 of their 43 games so far.Vieira then is expected to return to Arsenal for pre-season after a few weeks’ rest from the Club World Cup, but could soon be on the move again.Throughout this season, Arsenal have sent scouts to watch Vieira, but there is believed to be an acceptance that his future lies elsewhere, with several clubs in Europe interested.And needing to spend big during the upcoming window, Vieira could prove to be a useful sale in raising funds, alongside the likes of Oleksandr Zinchenko and Jakub Kiwior.Arsenal will remain patient, however. Midfielders Thomas Partey and Jorginho are out of contract this summer, while the £51m signing of Real Sociedad’s Martin Zubimendi is yet to be completed, even if it is viewed as a formality inside the club.Former Spurs and Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas is the president of PortoFOXES STAR AN OPTION?Speaking of midfielders, there have been links to Leicester City’s 20-year-old Moroccan playmaker Bilal El Khannouss following the club’s Prem relegation.A £21m signing from Genk in August, he has shone in a woeful team, having made nearly 100 senior appearances in the Belgian top flight as a teenager.Much like Vieira, there have been concerns about El Khannouss’ physicality, described as a “tiny, slight boy, very thin” at Genk, but with incredible technique and vision. One academy coach summed it up: “I used to tell people that he had eyes in his back.”He is not the player Arsenal fans will have in mind when it comes to one of their biggest transfer windows in years this summer.But could be a useful squad addition, one that could come at a bargain price with the Foxes desperate for cash now they are in the Championship.Leicester manager Rudd van Nistelrooy said earlier this season: “His potential is there to be a top player in the Champions League. He can go a long way.”But for now, he has only produced two goals and three assists in 25 starts this term.And he is behind both Odegaard and Vieira when it comes to chances created, shots and passes per 90 minutes, as well as passing accuracy, passes into the box and crosses.The one area he does impress is in duels, competing in 9.7 per 90 minutes – more than Odegaard [7.7] and Vieira [9.5] – and winning 48.8 per cent of them.TICKETS FOR PARISPSG fans are confident their team will be making it through to the Champions League final so demand for Wednesday’s semi-final against Arsenal has rocketed.Tickets in the home areas for the clash at the Parc des Princes are going for between £424 and £5100 on ticket reselling sites.Meanwhile, Arsenal have only been given 2000 tickets for the away end at £51.30 each.That is 500 below the five per cent away teams are entitled to by Uefa in European competitions and Arsenal have complained.PSG, though, were given special dispensation to reduce that to 4.1 per cent before the start of the season owing to a request from local police.At those online prices, you won’t get any Arsenal fans trying to get into the home areas.

      Martin Odegaard should be STRIPPED of the Arsenal captaincy following PSG horror show, says former MOTD pundit

      by

      MARTIN ODEGAARD should be stripped of the Arsenal captaincy, according to ex-Match of the Day pundit Mark Lawrenson.The former Liverpool defender did not hold back after Odegaard’s underwhelming display in Arsenal’s Champions League semi-final first leg defeat to Paris Saint-Germain.Odegaard completed just 20 passes against PSGCredit: RexMikel Arteta’s side were beaten 1-0 at the Emirates after Ousmane Dembele struck early to give the French giants a crucial away win.Odegaard struggled to influence the game, completing just 20 passes out of 27 attempts – his lowest total in any match this season.Lawrenson reckons the pressure of being captain is affecting the Norwegian’s performances. He told Paddy Power: “The captain’s armband should be taken away from Odegaard, so he can get back to focusing on his performances.READ MORE ARSENAL NEWS”We all know that he’s a good player, but he’s just had a six out of 10 season.”Odegaard, 25, has worn the armband since 2022 after signing permanently for the club in 2021 and has been a integral part of Arteta’s leadership group.But Lawrenson believes there is a better candidate in the ranks. He added: “If you gave Declan Rice the armband instead, you imagine that it wouldn’t affect his performances, especially considering he was captain at West Ham.Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK”I’d give it to Rice so Odegaard can focus on improving his performances.”Odegaard has registered just one assist in his last eight matches and was largely anonymous against PSG, as Arsenal failed to find a breakthrough.

      Nottingham Forest 0 Brentford 2: Nuno’s Champions League hopes take huge hit as they crumble at home to Bees

      by

      MAYDAY MAYDAY is the internationally recognised distress signal for someone in trouble.And boy are Nottingham Forest in trouble after goals from Kevin Schade and Yoane Wissa dealt their Champions League hopes a savage blow.Nottingham Forest have been handed a huge blow to their Champions League qualification hopesCredit: RexBrentford beat Forest 2-0 at the City GroundCredit: GettyIt was on May day, 32 years ago to the day since Brian Clough bid a tearful farewell to management, that Forest were relegated after losing 2-0 to Sheffield United.And this was to be a painful anniversary at the same City Ground as Forest fans watched their side implode in front of their eyes.Nuno Espirito’s team has been built on a rock-solid defence all season.But the usually reliable Murillo and Nikola Milenkovic were culpable as two long balls out of defence caught them napping as the Bees cashed in.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLThe second goal which put them to the sword was a real comedy of errors – although no-one in Forest colours was laughing.Mark Flekken launched the ball forward, Murillo allowed it to sail over his head and fatally let the ball bounce over Milenkovic.And Wissa – the man Nuno tried and failed to buy in January – nipped in to clip the ball beyond Matz Sels to complete Forest’s miserable week.Their fans had flocked to the City Ground hoping to see their side climb to third in the table.Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSKevin Schade capitalised on a defensive disaster-class to open the scoringCredit: GettyInstead they remain sixth after four defeats in their last five games and look to be running out of steam in the final run-in.Forest would have still been hurting from their FA Cup semi-final defeat by Manchester City at Wembley.Nottingham Forest star Harry Toffolo reveals ‘I might go throw up’ after downing six pickle juices during Tottenham clashBut there was no time to feel sorry for themselves against an in-form Brentford who were clearly in no mood to show them any sympathy.Thomas Frank’s Bees were buzzing after recent draws with Chelsea and Arsenal and an impressive 4-2 win over Brighton.And they flew at Forest from the start as they attempted to put together a four-match unbeaten run for the first time this season.It was high-octane stuff as this pair went at it hammer and tongs.Murillo had to hook a Schade header for a corner inside two minutes.And from the resulting flag-kick Murillo and Nikola Milenkovic teamed up to clear Christian Norgaard’s header off the line as Forest wobbled.Morgan Gibbs-White responded with a shot which was headed to safety by Nathan Collins on the six yard line.There were plenty of tasty tackles flying around and there was a hat-trick of early bookings for Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White and Elliot Anderson, along with Brentford’s Keane Lewis-Potter.Lewis-Potter was lucky to remain on the pitch when he cynically took out Ola Aina with a bodycheck, shortly after being booked.Yoane Wissa doubled the Bees’ lead with a delightful chipCredit: GettyThomas Frank wisely withdrew his combative left-back at half-time and replaced him with Rico Henry as flying-machines Ola Aina and Anthony Elanga were tag-teaming him.But Brentford were bossing proceedings and it took a fine reflex save from Matz Sels to keep out a point-blank header from Sepp Van de Berg.However the Belgian goalie was helpless to prevent the Bees taking a deserved lead one minute before the half-time break.It was a goal which left Forest’s usually reliable defenders’ faces as red as their shirts.Nathan Collins launched a long ball out from the back which completely caught out Murillo and Milenkovic who watched it sail over their heads.Schade cleverly bent his run to stay onside and capitalised on an untimely slip by Ola Aina to poke the ball beyond Matz Sels for his ninth Premier League goal of the season.It was by no means against the run of play.And things worsened for Nuno Espirito Santo when Callum-Hudson Odoi limped off with a thigh strain and had to be replaced by Nicolas Dominguez at the break.Forest tried to force their way back into the game and Anthony Elanga cut inside Michael Kayode and drilled in a low shot from 22 yards.But Flekken got down sharply to palm the ball away one-handed at full-stretch.Read More on The SunThat was as good as it got for Nuno’s team who conceded a second to Wissa which was a carbon copy of Brentford’s first goal.Forest are stumbling and appear to have dipped way too early with the finishing line in sight.Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have now lost four of their last five games in all competitionsCredit: PACallum Hudson-Odoi picked up an injuryCredit: PA More
