Arsenal Transfer News Round-Up: Elanga Links, Tierney’s Farewell & Forward Chase Heats Up

As the summer transfer window picks up pace, Arsenal find themselves at the heart of several major story lines—ranging from high-profile targets and emotional goodbyes to battles with European giants over key signings. Here's a complete breakdown of the latest developments involving the Gunners.

 

Arsenal Eyeing £60M Move for Elanga

Arsenal are reportedly keeping tabs on Nottingham Forest winger Anthony Elanga, with sources suggesting a potential transfer could cost the North London side around £60 million. The Swedish international, who impressed in the Premier League last season, is seen as a dynamic option for Mikel Arteta’s attacking setup. However, the steep asking price may require further negotiation

❌ Sane Off the Market as He Joins Galatasaray

 In a blow to both Arsenal and Spurs, Leroy Sané has opted for a new chapter in Turkey after departing Bayern Munich. The German winger has signed a three-year deal with Galatasaray, officially ending speculation about a Premier League return. Arsenal were previously linked, but missed out as Galatasaray swooped in quickly after his contract expired.

 

 

😢 Tierney Bids Emotional Farewell to Arsenal

After six eventful years at the Emirates, Kieran Tierney has officially returned to Celtic. In a heartfelt message on social media, the left-back thanked his teammates, coaches, and fans, saying:

    "To be part of this special club for six years has meant so much to me... I appreciated everything and never took any of it for granted. North London forever."

The Scottish international’s departure marks the end of a memorable spell in North London, which some would say failed to leave up to expectations.

😲 Sesko Saga: Leipzig Hold Firm on Price

Arsenal’s pursuit of Benjamin Šeško has hit a potential roadblock. While initial expectations suggested the striker could be available for £60 million, RB Leipzig are now demanding closer to £70 million, which matches his release clause. With Saudi clubs entering the fray, Arsenal are wary of getting pulled into a bidding war and have yet to make a formal move.

✅ Rodrygo Situation Opens Up for Arsenal

Arsenal may receive an unexpected boost in their interest in Rodrygo, with Real Madrid nearing the signing of 17-year-old Argentine sensation Franco Mastantuono. The teenager’s arrival could further limit Rodrygo’s role in Madrid, potentially opening the door for a summer switch. Though Liverpool and PSG are also monitoring the situation, Arsenal remain quietly hopeful.

Talks with AC Milan Over Defensive Duo

AC Milan have entered discussions with Arsenal about potential moves for Jakub Kiwior and Oleksandr Zinchenko. Reports from Italy suggest Zinchenko could be available for under £13 million, due to his contract winding down and relatively high wages. Milan are exploring a structured deal to make the move financially viable.

 

⚡ Nico Williams in Bayern Talks Amid Arsenal Interest

In another potential blow to Arsenal’s winger search, Bayern Munich have opened discussions with Nico Williams, the Athletic Bilbao star. Reports indicate the player is keen on a move to Germany, although Bayern are still weighing options. PSG’s Bradley Barcola remains Bayern’s top target, but his transfer could be difficult due to PSG’s unwillingness to sell.

⚽ Arsenal and United to Duel for Gyökeres

Adding more fire to the transfer window, both Arsenal and Manchester United have now reportedly met with Gyökeres’ representatives. With no official bids tabled yet, formal offers from both Premier League sides are expected within hours, according to Portuguese media. Sporting’s stance remains firm, but interest is clearly heating up.

Real Madrid Try to Hijack Arsenal’s Zubimendi Deal in a Desperate Final Push

Real Madrid are reportedly making a final push to sign Martín Zubimendi, the standout Real Sociedad midfielder who’s been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in recent weeks.

Sources in Spain suggest that Madrid see Zubimendi as a rare talent, with no comparable options currently on the market in his position. However, there’s uncertainty over whether the player even wants a move—he’s said to admire new Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso, calling him his “idol,” and is believed to favor staying in La Liga.

Late last month, rumors surfaced that Zubimendi had traveled to London for a medical, sparking talk of an imminent move to Arsenal. But shortly after, the Spanish international was seen posting vacation photos from a beach, casting doubt on those claims.

Arsenal are prepared to meet his €60 million release clause, while Real Madrid are hoping to negotiate a different deal. Reports indicate Madrid might offer Real Sociedad a few young players on loan—free of charge—in hopes of lowering the fee.

If that offer is turned down, Madrid will face a clear choice: pay the full clause or risk missing out on Zubimendi altogether.

Why Are Arsenal Becoming The Dumping Ground For Chelseal's Rejects

 

Every single transfer window, it’s the same story: Arsenal are linked with yet another Chelsea reject.

Seriously—it's becoming exhausting, even nauseating.

We’ve barely moved on from the disastrous signing of Raheem Sterling last summer with his underwhelming performances, and now we’re reportedly looking at Kepa Arrizabalaga, a goalkeeper who cost Chelsea £70 million and failed to justify even half of that price tag. And why? Because we’re bargain hunting again.

The Excuse: “We Just Need a Backup Goalkeeper”

Let’s be fair for a moment. Yes, we need a backup goalkeeper. And no, it doesn’t make sense to spend a fortune on someone who’s just going to sit behind David Raya. But surely, there are more affordable, reliable goalkeeping options out there than the man Chelsea themselves are desperate to move on from?

Does our scouting network stretch no further than across London to Stamford Bridge?

Arsenal’s Transfer Strategy Is Becoming Predictable—and Concerning

This isn’t about overreacting to one rumor. It’s about a growing pattern that fans have noticed for years.

Arsenal are increasingly behaving like a club that cleans up after Chelsea’s mistakes. From Willian to Jorginho, now potentially Kepa—the club is beginning to look more like a recycling center for Chelsea’s unwanted squad players than a top Premier League contender.

What’s more troubling is the perception that somehow these players will suddenly become world beaters the moment they walk through the doors at London Colney. It almost never works that way. If a player couldn’t make the grade at Chelsea, why would they be a solution for a side trying to win the big trophies?

Where Is the Scouting? Where Is the Ambition?

The bigger issue lies in the lack of forward-thinking strategy.

Where’s the clever recruitment? Where are the data-driven, high-upside signings we see from clubs like Brighton, Brentford, or even Aston Villa?

Why aren’t Arsenal identifying hungry, undervalued talents before they become cast-offs at rival clubs?

As a club with Arsenal’s stature, we should be setting the tone in the market—not scrambling to pick up what others have already discarded.

A Message to the Board: Stop the Pattern

Why do we keep making the same mistake over and over again?

Is the board truly so out of touch with the sentiments of the fan base that they think we’ll cheer for another ex-Chelsea squad player wearing red and white?

So here’s a sincere plea to Andreas Berta and the entire Arsenal hierarchy:

➡️ Please, steer clear of Chelsea’s unwanted players.

We wouldn’t mind a backup goalkeeper from the Championship, or even an unknown gem from Scandinavia. What we don’t need is another bloated wage, low-impact signing who couldn’t cut it elsewhere.

Arsenal Deserves Better

We deserve better.
Mikel Arteta deserves better.
And frankly—the Club
deserves better

Gabriel Magalhães Commits Future to Arsenal with New Long-Term Deal

Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhães has put pen to paper on a fresh four-year contract, extending his stay at the club until 2029.

The 27-year-old Brazilian, who initially joined the Gunners from Lille in 2020 for a reported fee of £27 million, has become a vital presence in Mikel Arteta’s backline. His previous contract was set to run until 2027, but this new deal underscores Arsenal’s commitment to securing the core of their squad for the long term.

Since arriving in North London, Gabriel has grown into one of the team’s most dependable players. With 210 appearances and 20 goals to his name, he has forged a formidable defensive partnership with William Saliba and has regularly posed a threat from set-pieces.

Speaking after signing his new contract, Gabriel shared his gratitude and ambition:

“I came here as a young player still finding my way. Nearly five years later, I’m incredibly proud of my journey. Arsenal means so much to me and my family. This club has helped me grow, and I’m excited to keep pushing forward and hopefully lift trophies. The support from the fans, the bond with my teammates, and playing at the Emirates — it’s all very special to me.”

Despite missing the final stretch of last season due to hamstring surgery, Gabriel is expected to return in time for the start of the new campaign.

With Gabriel’s future now secured, Arsenal are reportedly looking to extend the contracts of other key players. Talks are ongoing with the likes of William Saliba and Bukayo Saka, as the club continues to build a squad capable of challenging for major honours.

Meanwhile, the Gunners have confirmed that midfielder Jorginho and defender Kieran Tierney will depart at the end of the month upon the expiry of their contracts. Discussions regarding Thomas Partey’s future are also understood to be in progress.

As Arsenal prepare for another title challenge, keeping core players like Gabriel signals a clear intent to build consistency and stability at the heart of the squad.

Breaking: Roundup of Arsenal Latest Transfer News and Updates

Arsenal Set to Announce Martin Zubimendi Signing After Successful Medical

Arsenal are on the verge of officially completing the signing of Spanish midfielder Martín Zubimendi, with reports indicating that the Real Sociedad star has already undergone a successful medical in England.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano had previously given the deal his iconic "Here We Go," and it now appears that the announcement from Arsenal could come in the coming days. Zubimendi, who has been a long-term target for Mikel Arteta, is expected to add much-needed depth and control to the Gunners' midfield ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign.

The 25-year-old is currently focused on international duty as Spain prepare to face France in the UEFA Nations League semi-finals. Despite his commitments with the national team, Arsenal are expected to finalize the transfer soon.

With the Premier League’s first registration window closing on June 10, Arsenal may look to complete the paperwork swiftly. However, since the club is not participating in this year’s FIFA Club World Cup, they have a bit of flexibility and could afford to delay official registration until June 16 if necessary.

The addition of Zubimendi marks a strategic move for Arsenal as they aim to strengthen their squad depth and maintain competitiveness across all domestic and European competitions.

 

Arsenal Monitor PSG Star Bradley Barcola Amid Intense Transfer Interest

Arsenal are reportedly keeping a close eye on Paris Saint-Germain winger Bradley Barcola as Mikel Arteta considers attacking reinforcements for the upcoming 2025/26 Premier League season. The 21-year-old French talent is the latest high-profile name to be linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium during the summer transfer window.

According to a report from CaughtOffside, the Gunners have extensively scouted Barcola in recent months. The rising PSG star has also attracted serious interest from fellow Premier League clubs, with both Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur believed to be tracking his progress closely.

 

 

Barcola, known for his explosive pace, dribbling skills, and versatility across the front line, has emerged as one of the most exciting young prospects in European football. However, any deal for the forward won’t come cheap. Sources close to PSG suggest that the Ligue 1 champions value Barcola between €100 million and €120 million (£84.2 million to £101.1 million), reflecting both his current impact and future potential within their long-term project.

While Arsenal remain focused on bolstering their forward options this summer, Barcola’s hefty price tag could present a significant obstacle—especially with other priority targets also under consideration.

 

Arsenal's £59M Bid for Viktor Gyökeres Rejected by Sporting CP

Arsenal’s pursuit of Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres has hit a stumbling block after the Portuguese champions reportedly rejected a £59 million offer for the Swedish international.

According to Portuguese outlet Correio da Manhã, Sporting are holding firm on their valuation, demanding at least £67 million to part ways with their star forward. The 26-year-old has been in sensational form in Liga Portugal, drawing attention from several top European clubs, with Arsenal leading the race for his signature.

 Gyökeres has emerged as one of Arsenal's primary transfer targets this summer, alongside RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško, as Mikel Arteta looks to strengthen his attacking options ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League season.

With negotiations ongoing, the Gunners may need to return with an improved offer to secure the prolific striker, who has become a key piece in Sporting’s recent domestic success.

 

Arsenal Stepping up Pursuit for RB Leipzig Striker Benjamin Šeško

Arsenal are reportedly stepping up their pursuit of RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Šeško, with sporting director Andrea Berta believed to have held behind-the-scenes talks with Leipzig executives to explore a potential summer transfer.

The 21-year-old Slovenian striker, who has a £69 million release clause, has been on Mikel Arteta’s radar for several transfer windows. With RB Leipzig failing to secure a spot in next season’s UEFA Champions League, the Bundesliga side may be open to selling one of their most valuable assets.

Šeško's combination of pace, physical presence, and clinical finishing makes him a highly attractive option as Arsenal look to strengthen their attack ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League campaign.

 

 

Rodrygo Dismisses Exit Rumors Amid Arsenal Transfer Interest

Earlier in the summer, speculation surrounding the future of Brazilian winger Rodrygo ignited widespread interest across Europe, with several Premier League clubs—including Arsenal—reportedly monitoring the situation. The 23-year-old Real Madrid star was believed to be open to a potential move away from the Santiago Bernabéu in search of a more prominent role.

However, fresh updates from Spain suggest that Rodrygo has now committed his future to Real Madrid. Despite the growing interest from top English clubs, the talented winger has reportedly informed Los Blancos of his intention to stay and fight for his place in the team.

Rodrygo’s decision is expected to influence the transfer strategies of clubs like Arsenal, who may now shift their attention to alternative attacking targets in the summer window as they look to reinforce their squad ahead of the 2025/26 Premier League season.

 

 

Arsenal Consider Joao Pedro as Backup Striker Option in Summer Transfer Plans

As Arsenal continue their aggressive push to strengthen their attacking line this summer, Brighton forward João Pedro has emerged as a potential alternative if the club fails to land its top striker targets.

The Gunners remain focused on securing a marquee signing up front, with Sporting CP's Viktor Gyökeres and RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Šeško identified as Mikel Arteta’s primary targets. However, if either deal proves too difficult or costly to finalize, Pedro is reportedly being considered as a strong backup option.

The 22-year-old Brazilian has impressed in the Premier League with his versatility and technical ability. Capable of playing as a central striker or in a supporting role behind the front line, Pedro fits well into Arteta’s flexible attacking system.

With Arsenal looking to add both depth and creativity to their frontline for the 2025/26 season, João Pedro’s name remains firmly on the radar should plans for a blockbuster striker signing fall through.
