While the Euro 2024 winner's contract at Sociedad includes a £51 million release clause, which other media sources state Arsenal plan to trigger ( Fabrizio Romano ), a new report claims that they've put two squad members on the table in an attempt to sign him at a cheaper rate.

Mikel Arteta could see several Arsenal stars pick up injuries over the next few weeks if no January signings are made. Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus are currently among those ruled out because of long-term injuries with Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu,

Skelly’s knee injury is “nothing serious” and a late call will be made on his and William Saliba’s availability for Arsenal’s trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers this Saturday. Lewis-Skelly picked up the injury during Arsenal’s 2-2 draw against Aston Villa on January 17 but played the entire match.

A surprise face was spotted at Arsenal’s training ground a day before their huge North London Derby clash against Tottenham Hotspur. The Gunners are desperate to return to winning ways after losing back-to-back games against Newcastle and Manchester United in the two domestic cups.

Regardless, Zinchenko’s exit from N5 still looks to be on the cards, and this departure would benefit three specific players in Arteta’s squad. Lewis-Skelly has been Arsenal’s shining light amidst a disappointing run of form in recent weeks.

This was the full smorgasbord of the reasons why the Premier League trophy will be on Merseyside come May 24 rather than north London.

Arsenal are likely to be without William Saliba for their Premier League clash against Wolves this afternoon. Saliba has missed the last two games but Mikel Arteta had some encouraging words over the defender’s return this week.

In conclusion, this fixture is more than just a game; it’s a narrative of ambition, challenge, and strategy in the Premier League. While Wolves seek stability and a return to form, Arsenal eyes the upper echelons of the table, making this match a critical point in their season narratives.

Mikel Arteta says that Arsenal defender William Saliba is “evolving well” after sustaining a muscular injury last week but will miss his side’s Champions League game against Dinamo Zagreb on Wednesday.

The defensive absences do not stop there. Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu are both ruled out with knee injuries, leaving Arsenal thin at the back. Jakub Kiwior is expected to step into central defence in what could be a rare European start for the Polish international.

Arsenal are back in action at The Emirates on Wednesday for the North London Derby, after suffering a bitter defeat to Manchester United in the FA cup.
