Raheem Sterling is all set to leave Chelsea this summer and make a fresh start abroad with a Champions League club after a failed loan spell at Arsenal in the 2024-25 campaign.

He returned to Stamford Bridge at the end of his loan spell, but was not picked in the Blues' Club World Cup squad.
Chelsea have enquired about the availability of Xavi Simons, who is open to the possibility of a move to Stamford Bridge.

Mikel Arteta explained why he keeps raiding Stamford Bridge for new signings after Arsenal completed Noni Madueke and Kepa Arrizabalaga's transfer from Chelsea this summer.

The Gunners faced criticism from fans following the confirmation of Madueke's arrival.
Chelsea are ready to bide their time in their pursuit of Alejandro Garnacho despite strong interest from Napoli.

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has admitted to growing frustration in the transfer market after the Magpies missed out on multiple key targets to Premier League rivals, including Bryan Mbeumo, Liam Delap, Joao Pedro and Hugo Ekitike.

Noni Madueke has revealed he wants to "win it all" and help Arsenal "take that next step" to silverware.

The transfer was finalised on Friday, sending a clear message about the Gunners' ambitions for the upcoming season.
