Express Sport keeps you up to date on the latest transfer news
Arsenal will be desperate to find the missing link of the puzzle in this summer’s transfer window as they look to finally topple Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table. The north London giants have missed out on silverware to the Citizens for the last two seasons.
Arsenal secured the signature of Italy defender Riccardo Calafiori in a £42million deal earlier this week.
But they could now be set to lose wonderkid Chido Obi Martin to Manchester United, with the 16-year-old striker reportedly accepting a proposal to move to Old Trafford.
The Red Devils were dealt a huge blow at the weekend when new defender Leny Yoro was forced off with an injury issue during his side’s pre-season friendly against Arsenal in the USA.
And United boss Erik ten Hag will be concerned by the development after bemoaning his misfortune with injury issues last term.
Chelsea have been prolific in the transfer market once again, while Liverpool are yet to get any incoming business done.
