Good morning Gunners fans
Arsenal could be set to move for Brazilian midfielder Danilo as soon as the January transfer window, according to a new report.
The Gunners have been credited with an interest in the young Palmeiras star, Fichajes say.
And with competition for the 21-year-old is so fierce, it could force Mikel Arteta’s side to move fast.
Arsenal‘s hopes of signing Nicolo Zaniolo have been dealt a blow, according to reports.
His agent Claudio Vigorelli told Football Italia that his club Roma are currently working on extending his contract that expires in 2024.
He said: “There are no clouds on the horizon, we have an excellent rapport with Roma and Tiago Pinto and we’ve agreed that we’ll discuss a contract extension in the future when the club think it’s best.
“Now, the most important thing is to focus on work and performance on the pitch.
“The club know that we are ready to sit down and negotiate. I repeat that the rapport with Pinto is excellent and Zaniolo is happy in Rome and with fans.”
Tony Cascarino says if he was Arsenal, then ‘I would consider’ signing Liverpool transfer target Cody Gakpo during the January transfer window.
He told talkSPORT: “I could see a lot of players working out,” said Cascarino on Arsenal possibly signing Gakpo. “They are are a really good side now.
“What he (Arteta) has done is nothing short of a miracle – yes, I would consider, it’s because you don’t have this opportunity very often. You are five points clear.”
Yaya Toure has backed Arsenal to ‘carry on’ going in their battle with Manchester City for the Premier League title, despite Gabriel Jesus’ injury.
He told SKy Sports: “Arsenal have a great chance.
“I think Arsenal is going to carry on. Even maybe Jesus’ injury, at the moment.
“But let’s see different things as well. Arsenal was on top before the World Cup. I think maybe they could still carry on, even though Manchester City are really strong.”
Arsenal are not favourites to sign Atletico Madrid and Portugal forward Joao Felix, Daily Express journalist Ryan Taylor has told GIVEMESPORT.
The 23-year-old is being linked with a move to the Emirates, with one report saying that the Gunners are leading the race for his signature, but Taylor thinks Atletico’s asking price will be a problem.
According to MARCA, Arsenal and Mikel Arteta are currently at the front of the queue for Felix.
Premier League rivals Manchester United and Chelsea have also been mentioned, but the outlet claims that it is the north London club who are the frontrunners to sign the former Benfica man.
