Here are your Arsenal morning headlines for Tuesday, 8 September.
Arsenal fans spot Thomas Partey transfer confirmation
Arsenal supporters believe they may have spotted confirmation that Atletico Madrid midfield enforcer Thomas Partey could soon be on his way to the Emirates Stadium.
The Express reports that an Arsenal fan has noticed that Partey ‘liked’ a tweet from a Gunners supporter asking him about the prospect of sealing a summer move to north London.
The Ghana international has been a long-term target of Arsenal’s and they remain keen on securing his signature.
A Gunners supporter posted a tweet about Partey, saying: “Going to be? He’s already a star.”
Partey reacted by ‘liking’ the tweet and immediately drawing plenty of attention, suggesting that he’s keen on a move to the Emirates Stadium.
Arteta’s goalkeeping dilemma
Since Bernd Leno suffered a serious season-ending injury back in June, Emiliano Martinez has deputised as the club’s No.1 goalkeeper.
The Argentine started the FA Cup final in Leno’s absence and retained his spot for the recent win over Liverpool in the FA Community Shield.
But with the start of the new Premier League season now just four days away, and Leno back fit, Arteta has a very difficult choice to make.
Should the Gunners boss elect to reinstall Leno as his preferred shot-stopper, Martinez - who is being heavily linked with a move to Aston Villa - could make the decision to leave the club in the search of regular playing time.
Is Bukayo Saka the Premier League’s brightest young star?
The Premier League is flooded with bright, young, exciting talent, with almost every club having a talented youngster on their books.
For Arsenal, they have one of the very best upcoming talents at their disposal in the shape of Bukayo Saka.
After bursting onto the scene last season, the winger, who can also operate at left-back if required, is considered as one of the best talents the Premier League has to offer.
