That's 3 days old. Newer tweet on previous page. Payment terms agreed with Basel and paperwork being processed between Arsenal & Bologna. Deal should be signed & sealed this week.

🚨 @charles_watts: “In an ideal world, Mikel Arteta would keep Emile Smith Rowe. This time last year, he made it clear that he would not be sold & I think his stance would be the same this time around if it was just down to a footballing decision.”

Marseille in talks with Arsenal over Eddie Nketiah, who they are looking to take on loan. Key aspect of negotiations will be whether it includes buy option or obligation.

However the Ligue 1 side are expecting late interest from rivals for Nketiah, long linked to London clubs.

🚨 Arsenal have sent their proposal to Mikel Merino & are now preparing an offer to Real Sociedad for the player. Although Merino is ‘getting closer & closer’ to Arsenal, the agreement between the two clubs is still missing. [@mundodeportivo] #afc pic.twitter.com/cIWPoZKuX8

For Sociedad, he is L8. I think he could possibly be an Arteta 6 but I'm not 100% sure. Worst case he is a 30m euro squaddie that can allow Rice to get some occasional rest or slide down to 6.

Is there a chance Tomi, Blanco, or Timber could slide into the 6?

could they, possible
will they, doubt it

if we add Merino, I am hoping that he & MO will entice Zubimendi to give up on his Real/Barca dream since neither of those seem realistic and Sociedad appears to be blowing up the roster. If we snagged Merino & Zubimendi we would have an incredibly talented & deep MF.....

6 - Zubi, Rice, Jorge
8 - Rice, Merino, Jorge
10 - MO, 2 of ESR, Vieira, Nwaneri

🚨 All agreements now in place for Riccardo Calafiori to join Arsenal from Bologna. 22yo defender still needs to do medical + sign but deal essentially done. If everything goes to plan, aim is for Italy int’l to link up with #AFC on USA tour @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/imqFkwcOXC

And supposedly a Saudi team is making a push for Jesus. Part of me wants to see him stay. Part of me would welcome a strong offer. If Jesus & Eddie go we absolutely HAVE to bring in a #9.

For a big fat transfer fee I would love to see it.

Arsenal move for Fabian Ruiz.

I like both Fabian & Merino but don't really see either as a 6. Could we look to sign both and switch to a double pivot? Rice, Jorge, Fabian & Merino would be a really strong double pivot rotation. Then you would have MO, Vieira & Nwaneri at 10.

FWIW.....

🔴⚪️ Arsenal have still not presented any official bid for Mikel Merino as their focus was on sealing Calafiori deal.

Formal contacts for new midfielder will start in the next days with Merino in the list, approaches took place on player side.

Man, I still wish Arsenal could find a way to pull the kid to London. Maybe some time down the line

🚨🇳🇱 RB Leipzig remain clear favorites to sign Xavi Simons, as revealed.

There’s still some work to do in order to seal the agreement but club CEO Mintzlaff is on it.

Im curious how well he would hold up in the EPL. Does really well in less physical leagues but he got shutdown in the Euros. In general he looks really good but not 100% sure where he would fit for us.

We'll see. He's 5'10", not particularly small. He talked in the past about putting in more work with weights in the gym as that just wasn't a thing growing up at Barcelona. I'm sure he'll keep physically maturing in Germany having realized gym work's importance.

It's certainly still a question. But he's just so explosive and appears to be a hard worker.

Anyhow…
