Arsenal remain keen on signing Real Madrid forward Rodrygo and are confident they can offer him a sporting project that will convince him to leave the Spanish giants. T he 24-year-old’s future has been a matter of intense speculation since the end of last season when he fell out of favour with Real’s now former manager Carlo Ancelotti.

The most significant development on the transfers front was the arrival of Martin Zubimendi in London. The 26-year-old Spain international flew in to meet with Arsenal officials and complete the formalities of his €65million move from Real Sociedad.
