Morning, Gooners
Arsenal are tipped to rival Manchester United for Rasmus Hojlund while Bayern Munich’s interest in Declan Rice is intensifying.
It’s claimed the Gunners have contacted Atalanta over £43million-rated Denmark hitman Hojlund.
But both Arsenal and United face increasingly stiff competition for Rice.
Liverpool are being talked up as a potential destination for the West Ham skipper.
And perhaps more worryingly, it’s suggested the England midfielder would be happy to consider working under Thomas Tuchel at Bayern.
Aston Villa might fight Newcastle for Gunners’ left-back Kieran Tierney.
And despite the Gunners wanting both Rice and Moise Caicedo, Arsenal have been rated favourites to land PSV midfielder Xavi Simons, 20.
It’s thought anchorman Granit Xhaka is edging closer to joining Bayer Leverkusen.
Finally, Arsenal trio Matt Turner, Auston Trusty and Folarin Balogun have been named in the USA squad.
