Arsenal receive double ‘transfer boost’ in race to land lethal striker and classy midfielder

Arsenal are finally back in action this evening when they face Crystal Palace following a long break from Premier League action.

A postponement and the international break meant the Gunners were sidelined for well over two weeks, but this evening, they can finally resume their top four bid.

Mikel Arteta’s men have temporarily dropped to fifth on goal difference, but they have this evening’s game to play, as well as a game in hand.

As Arsenal prepare for the Palace clash, we have taken a look at all the latest transfer rumours.

Neves boost

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Wolves star Ruben Neves in recent weeks, with Mikel Arteta reportedly keen on a move.

And according to The Athletic, Wolves are now prepared to accept a suitable bid for the Portuguese star.

The Gunners could get their chance if they can meet Wolves’ valuation of Neves this summer.

Nunez race narrows

Arsenal continue to be linked with a move for Benfica striker Darwin Nunez.

And according to Inter Live, Inter Milan have now dropped out of the race despite previously expressing an interest.

A number of clubs remain interested, according to reports, but it’s one less for Arsenal to worry about if they do decide to pursue a deal.

Youngster to stay put

Arsenal youngster Khayon Edwards looks like he might stay put despite reported interest from elsewhere.

The youngster has been linked with Chelsea recently, but it seems he could now stay where he is to pen a long-term deal with the Gunners.

Football.london report that Arsenal have held positive talks with Edwards’ representatives ahead of striking a deal, which would be the youngster’s first professional contract.
