Arsenal news

Manchester United, Manchester City and Liverpool, among others, have been told how much it will cost to lure Newcastle's star players away from St. James' Park this summer. A host of key Magpies players have been linked with departures in recent months as Premier League rivals seek to exploit their sub-par season to boost their own respective squads.

Arsenal are on the right path to unlocking Viktor Gyokeres' full potential, according to head coach Mikel Arteta. The Swede moved to the Premier League leaders in a deal worth an initial £54.8m last summer having shone for Sporting CP. Gyokeres scored 39 league goals and registered an additional seven assists as the Portuguese powerhouse pipped rivals Benfica to the title.

Bayer Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes has claimed that Arsenal are "among the top favourites" to win the Champions League after the Bundesliga side were paired with the Premier League leaders in the last-16 stage of the competition.

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has issued a prickly response to rumours linking Anthony Gordon with a big money transfer away from St. James' Park. Gordon is reportedly on Liverpool's radar as the Reds weigh up a move for the England international in a bid to rectify their left wing issues. The defending champions aren't the only side reportedly keen on the former Everton man, however.

A nonplussed Pep Guardiola dismissed a question from a reporter that related to Mikel Arteta chasing his first Premier League title as a manager, insisting that he had not attended his pre-match press conference to offer advice to the Arsenal boss. Manchester City face Leeds on Saturday evening as they look to close the gap at the top of the table to two points, with the Gunners not in action until Sunday, when they host Chelsea.

Arsenal will face Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League last-16, while Liverpool have been paired with Galatasaray. Manchester City must overcome Real Madrid in order to keep their dreams of European glory in 2025-26 alive and Chelsea face a tough test against title holders Paris Saint-Germain. Newcastle are readying themselves for a clash with Barcelona and Tottenham will seek to put their Premier League struggles behind them when locking horns with Atletico Madrid.

Arsenal are reportedly readying a summer approach for Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, with the Gunners confident that they can win a congested transfer race for the England international. Liverpool and Manchester United have been credited with interest in the 25-year-old forward, who is said to come with a £75 million ($101m) price tag.

Arsenal couldn't really afford to lose or draw Sunday's north London derby with Tottenham. Their collapse at Wolves four days prior meant that the Premier League title race was now split evenly between themselves and Manchester City - if either side won all of their remaining fixtures, including their crunch meeting at the Etihad Stadium in April, they would be crowned champions.

Arsenal legend Thierry Henry insists Tottenham has never been a "tricky game" since they moved into their new stadium, and insists interim manager Igor Tudor faces a "massive job" to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Spurs are just four points clear of 18th-placed West Ham following a 4-1 defeat to the Gunners last time out at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Viktor Gyokeres displayed similarities to “prime Thierry Henry” in Arsenal’s derby victory over Tottenham and could be a “missing link” in the Gunners’ bid to bring a long wait for Premier League title glory to a close, claims Ray Parlour. The Swedish frontman has found form in 2026 and is hoping to be the man that returns domestic dominance to north London.

Declan Rice has revealed he received a message from Manchester United legend David Beckham after scoring two free-kicks for Arsenal in a Champions League game against Real Madrid last season. The England international twice beat Thibaut Courtois with powerful strikes from distance in what was one of the Gunners' most iconic European nights under manager Mikel Arteta.

Viktor Gyokeres appears to be finally silencing the doubters at the Emirates Stadium, but his recent scoring spree comes with a price tag for the Arsenal hierarchy. The Swedish marksman was the undisputed star of the show during Sunday's derby match, netting a clinical brace as Mikel Arteta’s side dismantled Tottenham Hotspur 4-1. While the Gunners celebrate a dominant victory over their rivals, accountants in Lisbon are also rubbing their hands in anticipation of a looming financial boost.

Jamie Carragher has compared Viktor Gyokeres to Alan Shearer in a remarkable U-turn from his previous comments about the Arsenal striker. The Sky Sports pundit had previously hit out at the Sweden international, claiming he isn't as good as some of Mikel Arteta's other options, but Gyokeres' brace in the north London derby on Sunday appears to have changed the former Liverpool defender's mind.
