Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has managed to convince Viktor Gyokeres to move to the Emirates Stadium despite interest from Manchester United.

Arsenal are hiring former Manchester United defender Gabriel Heinze to Mikel Arteta’s coaching staff following the departure of Carlos Cuesta to Parma, it has emerged. Cuesta joined Arteta in north London after the Spaniard took the job in late 2020 and remained a part of his team up until the end of the 2024–25 season.

Arsenal are set to cancel the contract of a Mikel Arteta favourite. The Japan international is tied down until 2026 with the option of an extension, but the two parties have now agreed to end their relationship,
