Arsenal got the new season underway on Saturday as they beat Liverpool in the Community Shield.
Away from the pitch, the Gunners continue to make their preparations for the new campaign, with defender Gabriel Magalhaes close to joining the club.
Yet there is plenty more business to do if Mikel Arteta's side plan to close the gap on the top four this season.
With that in mind, here are the latest Arsenal transfer rumours from across the morning.
Aubameyang deal 'close'
Mikel Arteta has insisted an agreement over a new deal for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is close.
"No. I keep saying the same thing," Arteta said when asked for an update after the Community Shield.
"I try to do my job which is convince him he is in the right place, that he has the right environment here to produce like he has done today and like he did three weeks ago [in the FA Cup].
"I'm very positive he is going to sign. But there are a lot of things involved in a contract deal and we are trying to solve them."
Atletico keen on Lacazette
Atletico Madrid remain keen on signing Arsenal forward Alexandre Lacazette.
According to Marca, Diego Simeone's men are pushing ahead of their plan to land the French forward and they are willing to sweeten the deal.
The report claims Atleti are willing to swap to players to land Lacazette, which will give the Gunners hope.
Arsenal are attempting to sign Atletico midfielder Thomas Partey this summer, and if the Spanish club really are that keen on Lacazette, there may be room for manoeuvre.
Nunez linked
The Gunners have been linked with a move for Athletic Club defender Unai Núñez.
According to AS, Arsenal are among a number of clubs including Wolves, AC Milan and Monaco who have cast their eye on the centre-back.
And it has now been revealed that the 23-year-old has a release clause of €30m.
That could make him a steal for Arsenal, but it's unclear whether it's an either-or situation amid the expected arrivial of Gabriel Magalhaes.
