We will have the latest on all of this and much more including updates on Antoine Semenyo, Victor Osimhen, and Thomas Partey. Don’t go anywhere.

Benjamin Sesko update
An update has emerged on the future of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko.

Arsenal have an interest in signing the striker this summer, and Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has reported that the Gunners are now in negotations over a deal to bring the player to the Emirates Stadium.

It has been claimed that Arsenal have held talks with Leipzig over the last 48 hours over a deal to sign Sesko.

Viktor Gyokeres stance
Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres has explained why he would not want to join a club in a Nordic country this summer amid continued speculation of a potential transfer to Arsenal.

The Gunners have been heavily linked with making a move for Gyokeres this summer as they aim to bring in a new centre forward.

Mikel Arteta and Co. did not sign a new striker last season, but it’s understood that Arsenal want to bring a centre forward to North London ahead of the 2025/26 campaign. football.london understands that Arsenal are admirers of Gyokeres, whilst also holding an interest in RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko.

Victor Boniface future
Victor Boniface reportedly could leave Bayer Leverkusen this summer transfer window after previously being linked with Arsenal and Chelsea.

Boniface, 24, was set to join Al-Nassr in January in a deal said to be worth between £51-£59million. However, the Saudi Pro League club instead signed Jhon Duran from Aston Villa for £65million on their transfer deadline day.

As such, Boniface stayed at Leverkusen last winter despite reputedly agreeing to a £13million contract, which would have worked out at weekly wages of circa £240,000. However, after returning from a hamstring injury around the same time, the striker scored just twice in the second half of the season.

Ayden Heaven verdict
Arsenal’s summer transfer window will be busy as many supporters will demand signings after yet another runners-up finish in the Premier League.

However, while outside additions to the squad are always exciting for supporters Mikel Arteta has some very talented youngsters at his disposal – but has also seen some young players leave the club.

The Gunners have brought through some quality players – Bukayo Saka and Myles Lewis-Skelly have both become instrumental – while Ethan Nwaneri and Max Dowman are very bright prospects.

But one player who decided to move on was Ayden Heaven. The centre-back moved to the north west in January and speaking to Manchester United’s official website, the 18-year-old explained his choice

Gabriel drops injury update
Gabriel Magalhaes insists he is “doing very well” as the Arsenal defender continues his recovery from a hamstring injury that kept him out for the last two months of the season.

The 27-year-old was forced to undergo surgery in early April after picking up a hamstring injury in the 2-1 win over Fulham.

Now, with the 2024/25 season behind him, Gabriel is focusing on his recovery and rehabilitation programme, with the aim to be ready for the start of next season

Benjamin Sesko twist
Benjamin Sesko has withdrawn from Slovenia’s upcoming match against Luxembourg due to injury, amidst intensifying interest from Arsenal. The 22-year-old has been a standout performer for RB Leipzig since joining the German outfit in 2023.

Despite Leipzig’s challenging season, which saw them miss out on European competition, Sesko managed to net 21 goals and provide six assists across all competitions. Prior to his Bundesliga stint, he led Red Bull Salzburg to three consecutive Austrian championships.

Arsenal want to strengthen their frontline this summer and Sesko is among the players they are tracking, football.london understands. The Gunners also appreciate Viktor Gyokeres, however, and meetings have been held internally about the pair ahead of a crucial 2025/26 season for Mikel Arteta’s side

Nico Williams update
Athletic Bilbao president Jon Uriarte has stated that he intends to keep talented winger Nico Williams at the club next season, damaging prospects of a transfer to Arsenal or anywhere else.

Williams, 22, looked a real danger to defenders at last summer’s European Championships. He scored twice and assisted once on the way to Spain lifting the trophy by beating England in the final.

It quickly prompted a transfer saga, one that Arsenal were at the heart of alongside Barcelona, though the winger stayed put with no one meeting his release clause believed to be worth €55 million (£47m).
