Big news in London as Arsenal agree personal terms with Chelsea winger Noni Madueke.

The Athletic reports that the clubs have a good relationship, having done several deals in recent years, although you’d think Chelsea may not be delighted that this has gone on without club-to-club talks.

Various reports – mainly in Italy – are linking Jadon Sancho with a move to Juventus, with the Serie A giants seemingly interested in ideal worth around £25m.

It is stressed that Juve have not found a deal with Manchester United, though they have made positive contacts with Sancho’s camp.

Defender Cristhian Mosquera has reportedly told Valencia that he has his heart set on joining Arsenal this summer, according to reports.

The La Liga outfit have previously rejected an offer for the defender and are understood to value the centre-back in the region of £25m.

Sky Sports News reported last week that the Gunners had opened talks over the 21-year-old and these talks are ongoing.

Will the player’s personal stance convince the Spanish side to settle for a lower than valued offer?

Antony, the second biggest signing in United’s history, and Tyrell Malacia are also keen to move elsewhere amid a possible exodus from Old Trafford and none of the quintet will start preseason training with United.

It is added in that Mirror story that Benjamin Sesko and, perhaps more surprisingly, Ollie Watkins have been identified as possible striking alternatives for Arsenal if they are unable to seal a deal for Viktor Gyokeres.

Chelsea have completed the signing of Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund on a seven-year deal.

The former England Under-21 winger arrives in a deal that could rise to £52m for the former Manchester City academy product.

“‘It feels great,’ Gittens said. ‘It’s a great feeling to join such a big club as Chelsea.

“I can’t wait to learn from everyone in the team and to push myself to the max here. It’s an amazing feeling.”

The Mirrorreport that Mikel Arteta wants any possible deal for Viktor Gyokeres sewn up within the next two weeks. The Sporting striker is seemingly keen on a move, but a breakthrough in negotiations is seemingly yet to be made.

Borussia Dortmund are exploring a deal for Chelsea’s Joshua Acheampong, among a number of clubs monitoring his situation.

The 19-year-old has been seen by the Stamford Bridge hierarchy as a prospect for the future, but the defender is known to want more first-team opportunities in order to progress.

There is now a belief among suitor clubs that Chelsea may be willing to do business for £35m, having previously rejected approaches – including loans.

Chelsea eventually prevailed 2-1 – and set up a last-four clash with another Brazilian side in Fluminense – after Malo Gusto forced a late own goal but the impression made by Estevao was strong.

Enzo Maresca hailed the “perfect night” after his Chelsea side reached the Club World Cup final and witnessed a sparkling display by incoming signing Estevao Willian.

A deflected late Malo Gusto cross saw the Londoners snatch a 2-1 victory in their quarter-final against Palmeiras in Philadelphia.

That came after Cole Palmer’s early opener had been cancelled out by a stunning strike from Estevao, the 18-year-old winger who is to join them after the tournament.

Maresca said: “We’re very happy. It’s a fantastic day. The semi-finals of the Club World Cup – the best clubs in the world – and we are there.

“Probably for us it has been the perfect night because we won and Estevao scored, so it was very good for all of us.”
