Arsenal have made the shock decision to dismiss their head of sports medicine, Dr Zafar Iqbal, just days after losing the Champions League final. The highly respected practitioner was removed from his post with immediate effect following a gruelling season that culminated in a historic Premier League title.

Thomas Tuchel has officially confirmed that Declan Rice will serve as England's vice-captain for the upcoming World Cup. The Arsenal midfielder has arrived at the Three Lions' training base in Florida to begin preparations for the tournament in North America.

France have received a double boost ahead of their final World Cup warm-up fixture against Northern Ireland, with William Saliba's fitness clear and Ousmane Dembele set for a return. Manager Didier Deschamps has moved to calm fears over his star defender while confirming a tactical shift for his attacking line.

Arsenal have reportedly added Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White to their summer transfer shortlist as Mikel Arteta searches for elite attacking reinforcements. The Gunners boss is determined to build on his side's recent Premier League title success and sees the 26-year-old as a high-quality alternative to primary target Morgan Rogers.
