Arsenal news

Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes admits that Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has been his “toughest opponent” down the years, with the pair establishing a bitter rivalry. While they have clashed on a regular basis in Premier League action, there is plenty of respect between the duo. They are poised to lock horns again in the 2026 Carabao Cup final.

Manchester City will be without key January signing Marc Guehi for their Carabao Cup final showdown against Arsenal at Wembley on Sunday. Despite other winter arrivals being eligible, the England international has been sidelined by a new rule. Pep Guardiola has been left exasperated after the former Crystal Palace defender was officially ruled out.

Former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder Jorginho has publicly lambasted pop sensation Chappell Roan following an allegedly aggressive encounter at a hotel in Sao Paulo. The Italy international claimed that a member of the singer's security team targeted his 11-year-old stepdaughter, leaving the young fan in tears after a simple breakfast interaction.

Bukayo Saka has lifted the lid on life inside Arsenal's dressing room as the Gunners continue to chase a historic quadruple, and the message from the club's starboy sounds remarkably similar to the message Erling Haaland gave Mikel Arteta last season. The England international insists his side are "staying humble", as they prepare to face Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday.

The Arsenal defender talks about life in England.

Pep Guardiola has officially confirmed his starting goalkeeper for Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Arsenal at Wembley. While Gianluigi Donnarumma has been the preferred choice in the Premier League, a surprise name will take the gloves for the season's first piece of silverware.

A few years ago, FC Bayern Munich were on the verge of signing a current top Premier League goalkeeper.

"It sharpens your mind, and there are clear similarities to football," said Erling Haaland when he announced his investment in the Total Chess World Championship this week. "You have to think quickly, trust your instincts, and think several moves ahead. Strategy and planning are everything." The Manchester City striker’s strategy cannot be faulted except at one stadium in particular: Wembley.

Arsenal will look to end their six-year trophy drought on Sunday when they take on rivals Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley. Going back even further, the Gunners haven't won silverware in front of live fans since their 2017 FA Cup triumph, a time when Arsene Wenger was still manager and Mikel Arteta had just completed his first season as Pep Guardiola's assistant.

Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya has revealed that he could have joined Bayern Munich instead of the Gunners, before developing into a likely Premier League title winner in north London. The Spain international has become one of the best stoppers in Europe under Mikel Arteta's tutelage but it nearly didn't come to pass at all, given the interest from the Bundesliga giants.

The Gunners have been sweating over the fitness of Martin Odegaard and Jurrien Timber ahead of the Carabao Cup final. Odegaard hasn't featured since the draw with Brentford last month, while Timber was forced off during the 2-0 victory against Everton last Saturday. Their absence is felt, but Mikel Arteta remains hopeful.

Jamie Carragher claims we are in a "strange new world" where neutrals favour Man City over Arsenal for the Premier League title, as well as this weekend’s Carabao Cup final. He argues that Mikel Arteta’s pragmatic "win-at-all-costs" style, plus a polarising fanbase, has flipped the "anyone but City" sentiment into a resounding "anyone but Arsenal."
