Arsenal Nketiah Decision, Alvarez Pursuit, Merino Blow

 

Recent Arsenal football transfer news, including the most recent information on all prospective new signings and sales at the Emirates Stadium, such as Mikel Merino, Eddie Nketiah, and Julian Alvarez.

Marseille prioritizes Nketiah.

 
According to L'Equipe, Marseille continues to prioritize Eddie Nketiah this summer.

According to reports from Saturday, Marseille may abandon their pursuit of Nketiah, as Arsenal has rejected numerous proposals for the striker.

However, L'Equipe reports that the transfer is still underway, as Arsenal needs funds from a sale, and Nketiah is not a part of Mikel Arteta's plans.

In fact, Arteta is seeking to transfer Nketiah to secure the funds necessary to acquire Joao Pedro from Brighton, who are seeking €45 million for the Brazilian.

Regardless of the outcome, Nketiah continues to be Marseille's foremost objective this summer.

Arsenal is currently monitoring Alvarez.

 
According to a report from The Mirror, Arsenal is keeping an eye on the circumstances surrounding Manchester City striker Julian Alvarez.

The Premier League champions have informed the Gunners that a proposal of approximately €93 million (£80m) will be required to secure the World Cup winner.

Erling Haaland is believed to be in a superior position in the hierarchical order, so Alvarez is dissatisfied at the Etihad due to a lack of game time.

In the past few days, Atletico Madrid has been reported to be in advanced negotiations with him, and his agent has also traveled to Paris to negotiate with PSG.

Arsenal, however, is monitoring the situation.

Forest in audacious According to a report from Brazil, Nottingham Forest is undertaking an audacious endeavor to lure Arsenal's sporting director, Edu, away from the club.

Universo Online asserts Evangelos Marinakis, the proprietor of Forest, aspires to transform the Brazilian into a "sort of CEO who specializes in international football across all of his endeavors," as the Sun describes.

Marinakis, who also owns Olympiacos and Rio Ave, "dreams" of having Edu as his "right-hand man."

Edu has been a critical component of Arsenal's recent success alongside Mikel Arteta. It would be an enormous shock if he were to depart for the City Ground.

Edu has been instrumental in Arsenal's resurgence under Mikel Arteta.

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are respectfully declined by Merino.

 
Mikel Merino is on the brink of signing with Arsenal, according to CaughtOffside. The Real Sociedad and Spain midfielder agents have already contacted Barcelona and Atletico Madrid to notify the Spanish giants of the player's decision.

It is reiterated that the Gunners are anticipating the signing of the Euro 2024 hero shortly.

Arsenal is in a prime position to secure Rabiot.

 
Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Arsenal is currently signing Adrien Rabiot, a free agent following his departure from Juventus in the summer.

His mother, Veronique Rabiot, who serves as his agent, stated, "In reality, I am in discussions with specific clubs; however, certain media outlets have connected me with other teams with whom I am not in communication."

"Consequently, I assume that others are speaking on my behalf." However, Adrien's sole intermediary with the clubs has been me since the inception of his career. If a club is interested, they must communicate directly with me.

The most recent transfer of Nico Williams

Sport reports that PSG thinks Nico Williams is committed to remaining at Athletic Club this summer. The winger's posture is said to have "convinced" the French team.

Arsenal and Chelsea were also interested in the Spain Euro 2024 champion, who appeared closest to joining Barcelona.

Nevertheless, he is destined to remain in Bilbao for another year.
