Arsenal news

When Bukayo Saka scored his 13th goal for England against Wales in October and became the highest scoring Arsenal player to play for the Three Lions, one reporter thought it would be a good opportunity to ask Thomas Tuchel to reflect on the winger’s international career. He most likely expected the German to wax lyrical about one of the best players for club and country over the past five years.

The latest report from the Premier League's KMI panel has confirmed that matches involving both Arsenal and Chelsea were impacted by officials failing to make the correct call on the pitch. While the league continues to grapple with the consistency of its refereeing, these latest findings suggest that even the division's biggest clubs are not immune to high-profile blunders.

Viktor Gyokeres was the hero for Sweden on Thursday night as the Arsenal forward's clinical hat-trick secured a 3-1 victory over Ukraine. The result keeps Sweden's dreams of reaching the 2026 World Cup alive, setting up a winner-takes-all play-off showdown with Poland.

Gabriel Jesus has returned to Palmeiras after being granted leave by Arsenal. During the current international break, the striker took the opportunity to use the training facilities at the Academia de Futebol, the very place where he developed as a young talent before moving to Europe.

The Azzurri midfielder is one of the most talked-about players ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window, and new rumours about his future are emerging from England.

Jamie Carragher has issued a stark warning to Arsenal following their Carabao Cup final defeat, claiming the squad lacks the "special" attacking talent required for the highest level. The Liverpool icon believes that while a first Premier League title in 22 years remains likely, Mikel Arteta must act decisively in the summer transfer window.

Declan Rice is being held up as the perfect role model for England international team-mate Adam Wharton, with the Crystal Palace midfielder having one obvious area of his game to address. The 22-year-old playmaker is considered to be one of the Premier League’s hottest prospects, but he is yet to score a goal for the Eagles. Clinton Morrison has addressed that shock statistic with GOAL and explained who Wharton needs to look at for inspiration.

Arsenal are reportedly investigating a blockbuster deal for Paris Saint-Germain star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The Gunners are preparing for a major squad reshuffle this summer and view the Georgian winger as the ideal profile to elevate Mikel Arteta's attacking line.

England will head to the World Cup this summer as one of the favourites to lift the trophy after a run of strong tournament showings by a still relatively young core group of players. Football, though, moves fast, and soon there will be new stars who come along and usurp those established names. Fortunately for the Three Lions, the production line is showing few signs of slowing down.

Arsenal forward Kai Havertz has opened up on his unique passion for donkeys, describing them as "wonderful" animals while discussing his deep commitment to animal welfare. The 26-year-old, who has recently returned to the Germany national team fold, revealed that his affection for the creatures started at a very young age and remains a significant part of his life away from the pitch.
