Arsenal news now: Eze – Kluivert

Here is a roundup of the top Arsenal news, gossip and transfer latest from icfootballnews featuring the likes of Martin Odegaard, Eberechi Eze and Justin Kluivert that you may have missed today…

Italian Journalist Fabrizio Romano has claimed that Eberechi Eze is “very tempted” by the opportunity to play for Arsenal, as the Gunners plan to sign the gifted Crystal Palace winger this transfer window.

ARSENAL have been in the transfer headlines alot over the past few weeks – there has been alot of players linked with a move to the Emirates – and Eze is a player that the Gunners reportedly wants.

After an impressive season for Crystal Palace last year – Eze has been attracting all sorts of interest from the Premier Leagues biggest clubs and there is surely a big battle brewing over the next few weeks – but it seems that the London clubs have the edge in the chase.

Team Talk recently claimed the Gunners have now held discussions with Crystal Palace and the England international about a move, and the attacker has even told friends that he is making the move to the Emirates.

It has been previously reported that the Eagles will not accept a penny less than Eze’s release clause which is said to be £67.5million.

Now Romano has claimed that Eberechi Eze is “very tempted” by the opportunity to play for Arsenal, and the chance to play in the Champions League.

And according to reporter Iomie Stanley, he is good enough to make the move to Arsenal – he told icfootballnews: ‘I would be very surprised to still see Eze at Palace for next season.

“Michael Olise has already moved onto Bayern Munich last summer, so that will have addressed any financial concerns the club may have had and the funds raised from his sale has helped the club bring in some new faces, but Eze now has a taste for the very top of the game.

“Man United are the latest side to join the race for Eze – but Eze is a London boy and would love to make the move to the Emirates and not up North.

“I think he’s definitely good enough to play for one of the bigger clubs in the league, and i believe he could break into that starting side at the Emirates.’

ODEGAARD EXCITED WITH GYOKERES

Martin Odegaard is full of praise for for new signing Viktor Gyokeres after ARSENAL pulled off the deal to bring the in-demand Swedish star to the Premier League in a deal worth over £60 million

The Swedish striker has taken the No.14 shirt at the Emirates, once worn by legend Thierry Henry. Arsenal have signed Gyokeres in a deal worth £63.5million, an initial £54.8m up front, with a further £8.7m in additional clauses.

The 27-year-old has penned a five-year deal worth around £300,000-a-week. The 6ft 2in ace crashed in 97 goals and 102 appearances for Sporting Lisbon, including a stunning Champions League hat-trick against Manchester City last season.

And after seeing the big striker in action over the past few days, The Gunners captain said: “I think you’ve all seen what he’s done in his career so far, especially the last season at Sporting, the numbers speak for themselves.

“He’s a very complete player. He’s physical, strong, fast, good finisher and intelligent as well.

“I think he’s a very complete striker and you can also see the hunger, the energy he brings. I’m really excited to have him with the team.

“He’s only trained a few times, but you can already see the quality, the energy and the willingness.”

IcFootballnews Says…

In that ARSENAL attack, Gyokeres could score more than 50 goals again in the coming season, he really is one of the best forwards in the world and a man that many Gunners fans are excited about.

He will surely bang in 30 goals this coming season

ARSENAL TOLD SIGN KLUIVERT

The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool have been urged to sign AFC Bournemouth attacking midfielder Justin Kluivert in the summer transfer window, who was impressive in the Premier League last season.

Kluivert shined for the south coast club in the Premier League last season, producing 12 goals and six assists in 34 top-flight games for the Cherries.

Bournemouth are reported to have placed a £43M price tag on the 26-year-old star, who can also be deployed as a winger and has previously played for Ajax and Roma, and Rene Meulensteen is convinced his Dutch compatriot would ‘thrive’ at Arsenal or Liverpool.

‘I’m surprised that Justin Kluivert hasn’t had a huge transfer,’ Meulensteen told Grosvenor Casino about the Netherlands international, who is the son of Patrick Kluivert and under contract at Bournemouth until June 2028.

‘I wondered if Arne Slot would have a punt on him because he is versatile, he is quick and has developed really well.

‘He has come so far and is very effective, I could see him thriving at Arsenal or Liverpool.

‘Maybe not with Manchester United, they already have Matheus Cunha and Bruno Fernandes, but I think Kluivert has done really well.’

IcFootballnews Says…

Kluivert was decent last season, he is at a club that plays him every week and at a very good level, a move to Arsenal and Liverpool would give him more money, the chance to play a few games, but also keep the bench warm.

Arsenal and Liverpool have very good squads and adding Kluivert to the side would just be to add depth, it would not be a good move for the Dutchman to make.

And to be honest, if they wanted to sign the player, they would have done it by now
