News about Arsenal and moves : The Youri Tielemans problem, talks about Cody Gakpo, and a deal for Bernd Leno:
On and off the field, the Gunners’ preseason training has been getting better and better this summer. Oleksandr Zinchenko, Marquinhos, Matt Turner, Fabio Vieira, and Gabriel Jesus are the five new players that Mikel Arteta has brought to the Emirates Stadium.
Even though the team from north London is already one of the most expensive in the Premier League, Edu, who is in charge of player transfers, hasn’t slowed down. Arsenal is still rumoured to be interested in players like Lucas Paqueta, Cody Gakpo, and Arthur Melo.
Nuno Tavares is getting close to leaving London Colney, but problems have come up and talks are said to have stopped. There have also been new reports about Bukayo Saka’s contract situation at the club. His contract is set to end in 2024.
Arsenal only has two friendlies left before the start of the new Premier League season. They will play Brentford and Sevilla in the final of the Emirates Cup. So relax and let football.london tell you what’s going on at the Emirates Stadium.
The end of Tavares’ loan
Italian journalist Michele says that Nuno Tavares’ loan move to Atalanta is off because the Serie A team turned down Arsenal’s request for it to be a straight loan.
Leno deal agreed
Bernd Leno’s move to Fulham is moving forward because Arsenal and Fulham have agreed “in principle” to a deal.

verdict on Gabriel Jesus
Mikael Silvestre, a former player for Arsenal, has talked about Gabriel Jesus’ move for £45 million to the Emirates Stadium this summer.
When speaking for 888sport, Mikael Silvestre said: “Jesus is not a full-time forward, which is good for Arsenal.
“Jesus will be the number nine, even though many teams don’t play with a “proper old-fashioned” number nine anymore. That’s not a problem because he’s so mobile, and against Chelsea we saw that he likes to go out to the right. As he did at City, he can play wide on the left or right, which is good for Mikel because it gives him options.
