Arsenal ‘prepare meeting’ with dream Saliba partner as academy star nears exit

Arsenal, and the rest of the Premier League, have entered the new cycle for Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR). The June 30 deadline on Sunday was the last chance for clubs to account transactions into the 2023/24 period and attempt to boost the numbers.

A failure to meet the threshold could land teams with sporting sanctions including points deductions. Arsenal are expected to be fine despite not being involved in any deals at all so far.




Moving forward, there is still plenty to be done though. Sales are likely to come in the next months but there are also incoming to sort as well. A new striker and central midfielder are top of the bill while attention on defenders remains.

Here, football.london takes a look at the latest transfer news and reports from around the club…

Guehi considered

Arsenal ae said to be considering a move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi if they are unsuccessful with an attempted hijack of Juventus’ attempts to bring in Bologna’s Riccardo Calafiori. Juve have been the frontrunners for Calafiori all summer, especially since manager Thiago Motta’s switch from Bologna to Turin this summer, but they have failed to get anything across the line.

Juve have struggled with finances for a while now and it is making things tough regarding a deal for Calafiori. Arsenal are just one of the teams said to be snapping around for the versatile defender, who can play centre-back and left-back. According to Fabrizio Romano, there will be meetings scheduled to learn just what the position is in the Calafiori camp.
