Manchester United's academy stars and their parents are reportedly delighted that Michael Carrick has replaced recently sacked head coach Ruben Amorim. The Portuguese hit out at the "entitlement" of some of the club's youth products, while defending his decision to keep young talent Kobbie Mainoo out of the first team. Now that Carrick is at the helm, some families have been encouraged by his "lovely and welcoming" style.

Arsenal extended their lead at the top of the Premier League last weekend by picking up a point at Nottingham Forest while their only two title rivals, Manchester City and Aston Villa, both lost. However, the dour 0-0 draw at the City Ground, which was only enlivened by a late row over a disputed penalty shout, raised some serious questions over the visitors' attacking threat, given it was their second consecutive scoreless stalemate, after being held at home by Liverpool the week before.

Ethan Nwaneri scored on his Marseille debut a day after joining from Arsenal on loan for the rest of the season. After struggling for game time under Mikel Arteta this term, the French giants snapped up the 18-year-old for the rest of the campaign. And he didn't waste time making his mark for Roberto De Zerbi's team, with the attacking midfielder scoring in a 3-1 win over Lens in Ligue 1 on Saturday.

Diego Simeone has hit back at criticism aimed at Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez. The Argentine striker moved to Atletico 18 months' ago, joining from Manchester City for £81.8m. Alvarez enjoyed an impressive debut campaign in Spain, scoring 17 times and laying on an additional four assists for Los Colchoneros. However, the 2022 World Cup winner is enduring a testing second season.

They were the beating hearts of England's two top teams for nearly a decade, but one defining moment sticks in the memory of football fans

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

Manchester United were reportedly 'stunned' to learn that a deal for Arsenal-linked Benjamin Sesko was on last summer. The Slovenian international looked set to swap RB Leipzig for the Gunners, but Mikel Arteta's men swooped for prolific Sporting CP star Viktor Gyokeres instead. That left the door open for United to sign Sesko and now the two strikers will face one another this weekend.

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.
