How to watch the Premier League match between Arsenal and Sunderland, as well as kick-off time and team news

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has sent a glowing farewell message to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain after the 32-year-old trained with the club ahead of his move to Celtic. The former England international is set to seal his switch to Celtic Park as he prepares to undergo a medical and has been wished well by the Gunners manager.

Mikel Arteta has apologised to Liam Rosenior after the Chelsea boss complained that Arsenal's coaches were entering his side's half during their pre-match warm-ups. The two sides faced each other in the second leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final at the Emirates and the Blues boss was left fuming with the Gunners' behaviour.

Arsenal launched a daring last-minute bid to sign Leon Goretzka on transfer deadline day as Mikel Arteta desperately sought a replacement for the injured Mikel Merino. Despite advanced talks and a late approach from the Gunners, the 30-year-old midfielder has opted to remain at Bayern Munich until the end of the season. Goretzka is now expected to headline a major summer transfer battle.

Liam Rosenior has accused Arsenal of lacking respect after his X-rated outburst ahead of Chelsea's EFL Cup semi-final defeat to the Gunners. The new Blues boss was filmed screaming expletives at the Gunners' players as they encroached into the Blues' half during their respective warm-ups.

Eden Hazard has tipped former Chelsea team-mate Cesc Fabregas to one day become manager at Stamford Bridge, and one of the best managers "in history" as he continues his journey in the dugout. The Spanish World Cup winner is currently in charge at Serie A club Como.

Arsenal have been handed a major boost ahead of the 2026 Carabao Cup final, with the EFL delivering its verdict on Manchester City’s claims to seeing rules tweaked for January signing Marc Guehi. The Blues are being prevented from selecting the England international defender in domestic cup competition, and that will remain the case for a showpiece event at Wembley Stadium.

Arsenal loanee Ethan Nwaneri, who will be seeing out the 2025-26 campaign on loan at Marseille, has been called out by a rival manager in France after narrowly avoiding a red card. The England U21 international is still adjusting to life with Ligue 1 heavyweights, and was fortunate to escape an early ban after crunching into a tackle during domestic cup action.

Arsenal’s pursuit of silverware has come at a significant cost, with Mikel Arteta’s side facing a brutal fixture pile-up this February. Following their successful progression to the Carabao Cup final, a rescheduled trip to Wolves has been shoehorned into an already congested calendar. The Gunners now face a daunting journey to Molineux just days before a pivotal north London derby.

Newcastle United CEO David Hopkinson has admitted he has 'no idea' whether or not Arsenal were presented with the chance to sign Sandro Tonali by the midfielder's agent. Reports emerged on deadline day that Tonali was being monitored by the Gunners, with his representatives supposedly indicating to the Premier League leaders that a move could be negotiated.
