Eyes will be trained on Arsenal this summer to see whether Mikel Arteta can bring in the right personnel to see the Gunners topple Manchester City in the Premier League.
While a number of exits are expected, the excitement surrounds who the club might bring in. Alexander Isak has been a name linked for a number of months. Reports claim Newcastle have held talks with the striker telling him he is going nowhere, though.
Meanwhile, rumour moots Arteta has met with Marcus Rashford ahead of his potential exit from Manchester United. He may leave Old Trafford if the right offer comes in having suffered poor campaigns in two of the last three seasons.
Arsenal are otherwise supposedly interested in Athletic Bilbao star Nico Williams. The attacker is thought to have a £51m release clause that the Gunners are said to be willing to meet.

Newcastle have reportedly met with star striker Alexander Isak to inform him that no summer transfer will be on the cards. It is said that despite plenty of interest from Arsenal, the player is not up for sale.
Isak is not someone they are keen to sell even without the benefit of European football next season.
It has been suggested that a price tag of over £100million was already enough to put Arsenal off making a move, though now the Swedish forward may not have the choice

Arsenal are reportedly willing to meet the £51m (€60m) release clause of Athletic Bilbao star Nico Williams as Paris Saint-Germain also consider a move.
Reports moot Arsenal would have to combat PSG fo his signature though, given the French champions have earmarked the attacker as their priority replacement for Kylian Mbappe.
PSG have an advantage over Mikel Arteta due to head coach Luis Enrique holding an existing relationship with the player. Williams earned seven caps for Spain under Enrique, including four at the 2022 World Cup.

Reports online have mooted that Marcus Rashford has met with Mikel Arteta to sound out a move to Arsenal.
Rashford only registered eight goals this season and has been left out of the England squad for Euro 2024 amid a drab campaign. It was a far cry from his 30-goal haul of the prior season.
Speculation says both Rashford and Arsenal attain initial interest in a potential move albeit there would be a long way to go to see a deal get over the line. United are the only club the 26-year-old has played for having come through the club’s academy.
