Arsenal news

A nonplussed Pep Guardiola dismissed a question from a reporter that related to Mikel Arteta chasing his first Premier League title as a manager, insisting that he had not attended his pre-match press conference to offer advice to the Arsenal boss. Manchester City face Leeds on Saturday evening as they look to close the gap at the top of the table to two points, with the Gunners not in action until Sunday, when they host Chelsea.

Arsenal will face Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League last-16, while Liverpool have been paired with Galatasaray. Manchester City must overcome Real Madrid in order to keep their dreams of European glory in 2025-26 alive and Chelsea face a tough test against title holders Paris Saint-Germain. Newcastle are readying themselves for a clash with Barcelona and Tottenham will seek to put their Premier League struggles behind them when locking horns with Atletico Madrid.

Arsenal are reportedly readying a summer approach for Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, with the Gunners confident that they can win a congested transfer race for the England international. Liverpool and Manchester United have been credited with interest in the 25-year-old forward, who is said to come with a £75 million ($101m) price tag.

Arsenal couldn't really afford to lose or draw Sunday's north London derby with Tottenham. Their collapse at Wolves four days prior meant that the Premier League title race was now split evenly between themselves and Manchester City - if either side won all of their remaining fixtures, including their crunch meeting at the Etihad Stadium in April, they would be crowned champions.

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry insists Tottenham has never been a "tricky game" since they moved into their new stadium, and insists interim manager Igor Tudor faces a "massive job" to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Spurs are just four points clear of 18th-placed West Ham following a 4-1 defeat to the Gunners last time out at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Viktor Gyokeres displayed similarities to “prime Thierry Henry” in Arsenal’s derby victory over Tottenham and could be a “missing link” in the Gunners’ bid to bring a long wait for Premier League title glory to a close, claims Ray Parlour. The Swedish frontman has found form in 2026 and is hoping to be the man that returns domestic dominance to north London.

Declan Rice has revealed he received a message from Manchester United legend David Beckham after scoring two free-kicks for Arsenal in a Champions League game against Real Madrid last season. The England international twice beat Thibaut Courtois with powerful strikes from distance in what was one of the Gunners' most iconic European nights under manager Mikel Arteta.

Viktor Gyokeres appears to be finally silencing the doubters at the Emirates Stadium, but his recent scoring spree comes with a price tag for the Arsenal hierarchy. The Swedish marksman was the undisputed star of the show during Sunday's derby match, netting a clinical brace as Mikel Arteta’s side dismantled Tottenham Hotspur 4-1. While the Gunners celebrate a dominant victory over their rivals, accountants in Lisbon are also rubbing their hands in anticipation of a looming financial boost.

Jamie Carragher has compared Viktor Gyokeres to Alan Shearer in a remarkable U-turn from his previous comments about the Arsenal striker. The Sky Sports pundit had previously hit out at the Sweden international, claiming he isn't as good as some of Mikel Arteta's other options, but Gyokeres' brace in the north London derby on Sunday appears to have changed the former Liverpool defender's mind.

Matheus Cunha has highlighted Michael Carrick's role in Manchester United's win at Arsenal last month and claimed he 'will never forget' how his side brushed off conceding twice to become the first team this season to beat the Gunners at the Emirates Stadium. The Brazilian scored the decisive goal in the 3-2 win by curling into the top corner in the 87th minute.

Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres says the team feel more united following a heated meeting ahead of the north London derby win over Tottenham. The players held a discussion after throwing away a two-goal lead to draw with bottom side Wolves and responded by thrashing Spurs 4-1. The victory means Mikel Arteta's side are now five points clear at the top of the table, although second-placed Manchester City do have a game in hand.

Manchester City may be forced to make do without a key player for April's potential Premier League title decider against Arsenal. Pep Guardiola's side sit five points behind the Gunners in the table but do have a game in hand on Mikel Arteta's side. The two teams are also scheduled to meet again in the top flight at the Etihad in April in a game that could well decide which team are crowned champions.
