Crystal Palace talisman Eberechi Eze is heading to Arsenal in a blockbuster £67.5 million deal, and manager Oliver Glasner has made no attempt to hide his fury at how the saga has unfolded, leaving them with little time to find a replacement.

Viktor Gyokeres has been defended by Arsenal legend Emmanuel Petit after he was left "alone" by his team-mates following his disappointing Gunners debut.

His performance was a far cry from the explosive displays that saw him secure a £64 million ($86m) transfer from Sporting Lisbon, with many Gunners fans left questioning whether he could live up to his hefty price tag.

Eberechi Eze is reportedly unlikely to make his Arsenal debut against Leeds United but could complete his move from Crystal Palace this weekend.

Arsenal have confirmed 23-year-old goalkeeper Karl Hein has joined Werder Bremen on a season-long loan for the 2025-26 campaign. The Estonia international, who spent last season as Real Valladolid’s first-choice stopper in La Liga, will now head to Germany as he looks to compete for minutes behind new No.1 Mio Backhaus at the Weserstadion.
