Arsenal news and transfers – Guimaraes offer and Conor Gallagher latest

With the summer transfer now open for nearly a week, Arsenal’s transfer business is expected to gather pace over the coming weeks.

The Gunners have plenty of work to do before kicking off the new season against Wolves. A new midfielder and striker have been prioritised but no move has yet happened.




Bruno Guimaraes and Martin Zubimendi have been presented as possible reinforcements in the middle of the park, though both do contain hefty release clauses in their release clauses.


In attack, Mikel Arteta is said to want a new centre-forward to improve his team’s chances of winning the Premier League. However, every other club seems to be in the market for a new No.9 meaning the club are acting cautious on any deals.

Elsewhere, the north Londoners continue to be linked with several other players including highly-rated French star Desire Doue. Manchester United have also been credited with an interest, with Erik ten Hag’s side also strongly linked with striker Joshua Zirkzee who is said to be on Arsenal’s radar.

So, with that being said, stay with us at football.london as we bring you all the latest Arsenal news and transfer gossip live.



That’s all for today

We have reached the end of today’s Arsenal live blog.

Check back in from 6am tomorrow morning for the latest news and views on the Gunners.

Biereth plan

Sturm Graz director Andreas Schicker has confirmed he’s in talks with Arsenal over a permanent deal for Mika Biereth.

Biereth spent the second half of last season on loan at the Austrian club as they won the league title, scoring five times in 15 appearances.

Making clear Sturm Graz want the 21-year-old back on a permanent basis, Schicker told Kronen Zeitung: “I’m in talks with Arsenal. I’ve spoken to Mika, he’s always felt comfortable with us.”

Hvaertz helps Germany to victory

Kai Havertz and Germany all-but confirmed their spot in the Euro 2024 knockout stages earlier today with a 2-0 win over Hungary.

Goals from Jamal Musiala and Ilkay Gundogan mean the hosts have won two from two games. Havertz was not on the scoresheet today but did well once again.

Isak contract offer

Newcastle are closing in on securing the future of Alexander Isak with a new contract.

According to HITC, the Magpies are making progress on talks over a new deal for the striker following months of speculation linking him with a move elsewhere.

Isak was linked with a move to Arsenal earlier in the summer but the Gunners seem to be plotting a move elsewhere.

Kiwior exit

Italian outlet Calciomercato are reporting that Milan have made contact with the agen of Arsenal’s Jakub Kiwior over a possible summer transfer.

The defender is currently on international duty with Poland for Euro 2024, but ended the season as first choice under Mikel Arteta, meaning Arsenal could resist any potential sale in the summer.

Bruno Guimaraes back on radar

Bruno Guimaraes’ name is once again being linked with Arsenal.

Football Transfers claim that a player plus cash deal could potentially pursuade Newcastle to sell their start man this summer. He is said to have a £100 million release clause in his contract.

Names potentially included in a swap mentioned are Oleksandr Zinchenko, Emile Smith Rowe, Albert Sami Lokonga, Eddie Nketiah and Thomas Partey.

Player-plus-cash offer

Now, according to reports, Arsenal are planning to offer a ‘player-plus-cash’ offer for Bruno Guimarses.

Football Transfers claim that the Gunners are plotting a move for Guimaraes but do not intend to trigger his release clause. The report adds that Newcastle ‘might be open to such an arrangement given their necessity to balance the books and not get stung by Premier League Profit and Sustainability rules.’

Conor Gallagher interest

Now then, is this a move we could see?

According to AS, Arsenal have placed Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher on their radar this summer. The Blues star is expected to leave the club due to their FFP concerns as he would count as pure profit.

Man United, Tottenham and Aston Villa have also been credited with interest.
