‘Done deal’
Fabio Vieira’s loan move to Porto is finalised, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
The Italian wrote on X: “NO buy option as said yesterday, straight loan with Porto to cover Fábio’s salary.
“It was gonna happen only in case of Chico Coinceição’s exit… and goes to Juventus.”
Arteta on Villa challenge
Mikel Arteta on facing Aston Villa this evening after Unai Emery’s side did the double over the Gunners last season.
He said: “They scored and we didn’t, it’s very simple. In two games, even though we had an enormous amount of chances to do that, and that was one of the big differences, one of the details we have analysed. We have to do better tomorrow.
“They are a really good side, really well coached. They dominate every aspect of the game.
“When you give them space to run they are phenomenal and when they have to find space they are able to do that.
“Set pieces as well. That’s why they did what they did last season.”
Merino announcement today?
Arsenal fans were probably hoping to have had their deal for Mikel Merino confirmed by now.
The midfielder is set to join from Real Sociedad in a £33million switch.
But Arsenal have so far been quiet.
Any chance of a pre-match announcement from Mikel?
Gift of Gab for Mikel?
Arsenal are set to make do without Gabriel Jesus today.
Reports claim he did not travel with the squad after suffering an injury setback.
Jesus’ absence will only be confirmed once the team news drops.
But if he isn’t on the bench, will it provoke Mikel Arteta into finally landing a new striker?
