Declan Rice’s sensational performance at the Emirates has put Arsenal in the driving seat and brought a wave of optimism to north London. With a 3-0 advantage over Real Madrid, Mikel Arteta’s side can almost see the Champions League semi-finals – though inside the dressing room, they know nothing is settled yet.

COMAN SET FOR GUNNERS MOVE?

Arsenal have reportedly renewed their interest in Bayern Munich winger Kingsley Coman ahead of what promises to be a pivotal summer at the Emirates. The French international has struggled for consistent minutes this season, and with Bayern now open to a sale, the Gunners are said to be exploring a deal.

Coman, 28, has started only 11 Bundesliga matches during the current campaign, scoring four goals in 23 appearances overall. Injuries and competition for places have limited his involvement in Thomas Tuchel’s side, and with changes expected at Bayern this summer, his eight-year stint in Munich may be drawing to a close. According to Sky Germany, Bayern have informed Coman’s representatives that they are willing to sanction a transfer, with Arsenal already making initial contact to assess the feasibility of a move.

SAKA SET FOR TOP-EARNING DEAL

Arsenal are set to hand Bukayo Saka the biggest contract in the club’s history—brilliant news for fans who will be delighted to see their homegrown hero commit his future to the red and white.

Saka’s recent return from injury was met with a deafening reception at the Emirates, and his influence has been immediately felt in both games he’s featured in since.

UNITED CHASE RAMSDALE

Manchester United are reportedly monitoring Aaron Ramsdale’s situation closely as they weigh up a move for the goalkeeper ahead of a potential summer overhaul. Ramsdale, who joined Southampton from Arsenal last year, is widely expected to leave the club following their relegation from the Premier League.

The 26-year-old has endured a difficult campaign with the Saints, starting in 24 top-flight matches in a season that has seen Southampton ship a concerning 77 goals. Despite the defensive struggles of his current side, Ramsdale remains a highly regarded option for clubs seeking a new No. 1, and his prior top-flight experience continues to attract interest from several Premier League teams.

SAKA SHINES ON DREAM ARSENAL RETURN

The cheers for Bukayo Saka just kept getting louder. First, his name was read among the substitutes; then he started warming up; then he entered the fray with 24 minutes left; and finally, he marked his return with a goal just seven minutes later.

More than three months since his last Arsenal appearance, Saka’s comeback could hardly have gone any better. His hamstring injury and subsequent surgery had been carefully managed, but no one could have scripted such a perfect return. Arsenal were already in control against Fulham, but his goal sealed the result in a dominant display following the international break. Rodrigo Muniz’s injury-time strike gave the visitors a late consolation, but Arsenal’s 2-1 win was never in doubt.

ARSENAL EYE €80M STRIKER DUBBED ‘NEW THIERRY HENRY’

Arsenal could finally solve their centre-forward issues this summer, with a potential move for a striker drawing comparisons to club legend Thierry Henry. The Gunners’ need for a prolific goalscorer has been evident all season, and with a new sporting director now in place, change may be on the horizon.

Andrea Berta was announced as Arsenal’s sporting director on Sunday, taking charge of squad planning and recruitment. His first major challenge will be signing a top-class striker, with the likes of Alexander Isak and Victor Gyokeres linked to the club. However, a younger name is emerging as a serious option, with reports suggesting Hugo Ekitike could be on Arsenal’s radar. The Eintracht Frankfurt forward is reportedly 99 per cent certain to leave this summer, and his style of play has drawn comparisons to Henry, Arsenal’s greatest-ever Premier League player.

TUCHEL WARNS PREMIER LEAGUE BOSSES

Thomas Tuchel has made it clear to Premier League managers that he will not hold back their star players from England duty, insisting that national team priorities must be respected. The Three Lions face Latvia at Wembley on Monday night, just three days after Tuchel’s first match in charge against Albania, and while some rotation is expected, the German coach is determined to use every international break to prepare for next summer’s World Cup.

With only six international windows remaining before the tournament, Tuchel is unwilling to compromise, even with clubs entering the decisive stage of their domestic seasons. He acknowledged the club vs country debate, which had largely settled under Gareth Southgate but resurfaced under Lee Carsley’s brief tenure, yet he remains firm in his approach. “I know that this window, this camp, is where the clubs play a very crucial time of the season,” Tuchel said. “They play for championships, they play for quarter-finals in the Champions League. We are very well aware of it, but we have also our own goals, we have our own targets. The players are keen to play and it has to be like this.”

RICE HAILS ARSENAL’S NEXT GENERATION

Declan Rice believes Arsenal are “blessed” to have Myles Lewis-Skelly, Ethan Nwaneri, and Max Dowman in their ranks, hailing the trio as future stars. The England international has also revealed that he is mentoring the young talents as they navigate their early careers.

Lewis-Skelly and Nwaneri, both 18, have already made their mark this season, with Lewis-Skelly even scoring on his England U18 debut last week. Dowman, just 15, is regarded as one of the most exciting prospects in the country and has been training with Arsenal’s senior squad regularly, including joining their mid-season camp in Dubai. With all three players emerging from Arsenal’s famed Hale End academy, Rice believes the club has a bright future ahead.

ARSENAL EYE ATTACKING REINFORCEMENTS

Victory over Chelsea last weekend highlighted Arsenal’s defensive resilience, but it also reinforced the need to strengthen their attack. The Gunners struggled to create chances in their 1-0 win, relying on Mikel Merino’s header from a corner to secure all three points.

Arsenal have played 29 Premier League games this season, and in 14 of them, they have scored one goal or fewer. Injuries have certainly played a part, and last year proved that Mikel Arteta’s side can be ruthless in front of goal. In 2024, Arsenal scored 114 goals across all competitions—their best scoring record in more than 60 years. However, this season has exposed the lack of depth in attack, and reinforcements are needed to maintain their competitiveness at the highest level.

ARTETA’S FUTURE AT ARSENAL IN QUESTION, SAYS PETIT

Arsenal legend Emmanuel Petit has praised Mikel Arteta’s impact at the club but believes the Spaniard is now facing one of the toughest moments of his tenure. Despite transforming the Gunners into a title-contending force, the pressure of falling just short could be taking its toll.

Arteta arrived in December 2019 to take on his first managerial role, succeeding Unai Emery and bringing fresh energy to a club in transition. Over the past five years, he has reshaped Arsenal’s identity, re-establishing them as a serious Premier League contender and securing their return to the Champions League. His tenure has also delivered an FA Cup and two Community Shields, offering silverware in a period of steady progress.
