Here is your Arsenal morning digest for Sunday, July 5.
Bukayo Saka sends message to fans
It has been quite a week for Bukayo Saka, who followed up signing a new long-term deal with the Gunners by netting his first Premier League goal.
That set Arsenal on their way towards a pivotal three points, which could be vital in the hint for European involvement, and Saka spoke about his memorable few days after the match.
“It’s been a week that I’ll remember for my whole life. It’s not just me, it’s Arsenal fans, you can see we’re building and that the manager is building. We’re just delighted with the results we’re getting and that I can tie down my future here," he told Sky Sports.
“I’m 18, it’s been a dream to play for this club. I came up from the academy this season so I have to take it game by game, take each opportunity that the boss gives me. I’m so grateful to be here, it’s my dream. Anywhere the boss puts me, I want to be.”
Arteta praises Mustafi
Shkodran Mustafi hasn't always found things easy during his time at Arsenal but he was among the players to catch the eye with his performance against Wolves.
The Gunners secured a hard-fought clean sheet against their fellow European chasers and needed to be alert throughout - and Arteta says Mustafi has shown he can be relied upon.
"Musti has been really good since I joined. He was pivotal today. Him and Dani [Ceballos] dictated the game really well for the first 45 minutes. They gave the team what they needed."
Weghorst addresses Arsenal speculation
Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst has admitted that he would be interested in moving the Premier League to join Arsenal following recent speculation.
With the futures of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette continuing to attract rumours, the Gunners have been touted with a host of names in forward roles.
Weghorst, who scored 16 goals for Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga during the recently completed campaign, has now stated that a move to North London is appealing.
“That would be a good thing, of course, that fits in the perfect picture," he responded when asked about the rumours.
