Arsenal news

The initial phase of the Champions League is set for a dramatic conclusion on Wednesday. Here’s how bettors should approach the action across Europe.

Arsenal have confirmed Ethan Nwaneri's loan move to Marseille for the rest of the season. The 18-year-old has been limited to 12 appearances for the Gunners this term, leading to speculation he would move elsewhere in search of game time. Now, the Hale End graduate will link up with Roberto De Zerbi's side until the summer in the hope of finding his feet again.

Former Arsenal star Bacary Sagna has told GOAL, during an exclusive interview, that Arsenal can win both the Premier League and Champions League this season. The north London giants are hoping to make history in 2025-26, but Sagna - who also represented Manchester City in his playing days - has warned that Pep Guardiola “will not let go” in a bid to chase the Gunners down.

Arsenal have reportedly begun exploring a sensational summer swoop for Atletico Madrid forward Julian Alvarez, less than a year after breaking the bank for Viktor Gyokeres. Sporting director Andrea Berta is leveraging his deep connections at the Spanish club to gauge the possibility of bringing the Argentine World Cup winner back to the Premier League, despite the Gunners’ current record signing still finding his feet in north London.

Arsenal defender Ben White has expanded his portfolio off the pitch by becoming a key investor in a high-end luxury travel company. The 28-year-old, who is currently battling to reclaim his starting spot in Mikel Arteta’s side, has put his money into London-based executive chauffeur business OUNO.

It was not long ago that it looked like Casemiro would be leaving Manchester United in disgrace, ushered out the back door and out of European football for good, consigned to history as one of the club's worst transfer errors. Instead, he is set to leave with his head held high, showing that, contrary to Jamie Carragher's brutal assessment, the football never left him after all.

Jamie Carragher believes Arsenal are on the verge of making history and could even surpass Manchester United’s legendary 1999 treble winners. Ahead of the clash at the Emirates, the Liverpool legend claims Mikel Arteta has the tools to win a quadruple, arguing that the Gunners are in a far stronger position now than Sir Alex Ferguson’s side were at this stage of their historic campaign.

Arsenal midfielder Christian Norgaard has emerged as a surprise transfer target for Ajax, with the Dutch giants reportedly exploring a move for the Dane midway through his first season at the Emirates Stadium. The 31-year-old is featured on a shortlist of experienced midfield options being considered by Ajax director of football Marijn Beuker, who is currently on a scouting mission across Europe to secure a new defensive leader for the Amsterdam club.

Arsenal are enjoying their best season in 22 years under Mikel Arteta, having established a seven-point lead at the Premier League summit while also winning all of their seven Champions League fixtures to top the league phase table. The Gunners also have one foot in the final of the Carabao Cup, and will be expected to reach the latter stages of the FA Cup.

A retirement plan for Cristiano Ronaldo has been teased as Saudi Pro League officials reportedly line up 50 big-name players to join CR7 in the Middle East before the day comes for him to hang up his boots. More high-profile additions, such as Mohamed Salah and Bruno Fernandes, will help the division to retain interest heading towards the 2034 World Cup.
