Newcastle United boss Matthias Jaissle has been speaking to the media for the first time since his appointment. Newcastle United first made contact about the managerial role at the end of July. There were "never any doubts or question marks" around the opportunity due to the club's "special history, great fanbase and clear DNA".
Lee Trundle has tipped Brennan Johnson to thrive under David Moyes at Everton following his switch to the Merseyside club from Crystal Palace. The Wales forward has signed a four-year deal with the Toffees as part of a swap deal that saw Everton winger Dwight McNeil move to Selhurst Park. Former Wrexham, Swansea City, Bristol City and Leeds United forward Trundle believes the 25-year-old possesses the talent to win over the Everton faithful.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta (Picture: Getty) Former Arsenal goalkeeper Graham Stack can’t wrap his head around the Gunners’ decision to sign Illan Meslier from Leeds United earlier this summer. Meslier joined Arsenal on a free transfer in July after his contract at Leeds expired the previous month. The 26-year-old spent six seasons at Elland Road and made a total of 215 appearances in all competitions for the club, while helping the side win two promotions to the Premier League in 2020 and 2025. But Meslier found himself effectively frozen out by Daniel Farke last campaign, failing to make a single first-team appearance after dropping beneath Lucas Perri and Karl Darlow in the pecking order.

The Frenchman arrived at the Emirates to serve as a backup option behind David Raya and Kepa Arrizabalaga and made his debut against Girona in a pre-season friendly earlier this month. Meslier’s arrival looks set to force young keeper Tommy Setford out on loan before deadline day, an outcome which has not pleased former Arsenal shot-stopper Stack. ‘Look, he’s experienced, but it’s highly unlikely that you would use him,’ Stack told Metro via Lad Casino. ‘My question is, is there not another goalkeeper at Arsenal Football Club that’s capable of that? Illan Meslier arrived from Leeds United on a free transfer (Picture: Getty) ‘What are they doing at the club that they’re not producing any goalies? They just keep signing goalies. ‘At what point is there going to be an Arsenal goalkeeper that’s going to, not even break through, but I’m talking about being a number three.’ Stack also questioned why Meslier made the move to become a third-choice at such a young age, accusing the Frenchman of ‘throwing the towel in’. ‘I question him, I really do question the goalkeeper,’ he added. Tommy Setford (right) is set to leave on loan (Picture: Getty) ‘The reason I say that is that he’s got Premier League experience, he’s played countless games in the Premier League, he’s got bundles of experience, been at Leeds for I don’t know how many years. ‘He’s played loads of games, and maybe he doesn’t have that burning desire to go and play games and put himself under pressure. Maybe that’s what he’s after. ‘But I’m just surprised with someone of Meslier’s quality that he’s decided to almost chuck the towel in and be a number three.’ Alongside Meslier, Arsenal turned Piero Hincapie’s loan move from Bayer Leverkusen into a permanent deal, while Christos Tzolis and Bruno Guimaraes have joined from Club Brugge and Newcastle United, respectively. Bruno Guimaraes is Arsenal’s latest summer signing (Picture: PA) And while Arsenal are still eyeing up more signings at left wing and centre-back, Stack believes his former side are still heavy favourites to retain the league title this season. ‘Absolutely, Arsenal will win it,’ Stack said. ‘I think Arsenal will be buzzing after last year, and think it’s a situation now where it’s basically the monkey off their back. ‘They will be going into the season absolutely buzzing, and with the signing of Guimaraes and probably more to come between now and the start of the season, I think they will definitely strengthen. ‘The only concern would be how fatigued some of the players might be after Christmas in the crunch end of the season, when there are so many games in the league, domestic competitions and the Champions League, especially after a summer World Cup. ‘Rotating the squad is going to be key this season, so stopping players getting fatigued and looking tired just requires a big enough squad to make the changes and rotate players effectively. Just keep freshening it up. ‘I fancy Arsenal to go and win it, but I think that it will be a close-run race with Man City, I think City will be close behind them.’ For more stories like this, check our sport
CRAIG HOPE: The 38-year-old German was unveiled at St James' Park on Tuesday after replacing Eddie Howe, who stood down this month amid concerns over the campaign that awaited.
Vinicius Junior put pen to paper on a six-year contract with Real Madrid last week (Picture: Reuters) Vinicius Junior’s team reportedly reached out to Arsenal to explain why the forward had decided to stay on at Real Madrid last week, even thanking the Gunners for the treatment they had received during their back-and-forth. Eyebrows were raised as the 26-year-old attacker emerged as a surprise target for Arsenal this summer, with talks over a contract extension previously breaking down after two separate pushes by Madrid. Mikel Arteta was believed to be ‘absolutely smitten’ with the idea of coaxing Vinicius to north London and Arsenal bosses had been prepared to make the 2024 Ballon d’Or runner-up the highest-paid player in Premier League history. But a major breakthrough in negotiations between Madrid and Vinicius a week ago convinced the Brazilian to stay put and commit his future to Los Blancos, bringing Arsenal’s pursuit to an abrupt halt. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. It was subsequently announced that Vinicius Junior had put pen to paper on a six-year contract at Madrid, tying him to the La Liga giants until June 2032. According to The Athletic, Vinicius had been ‘genuinely attracted’ by Arsenal’s proposal, a move that had been approved at all levels within the Premier League champions’ hierarchy. It’s claimed the ambitious offer was made to Vinicius’ camp after ‘months of behind-the-scenes work’ and ‘high-level’ dialogue between head coach Arteta and key decision makers at Arsenal. The Brazilian had been ‘genuinely attracted’ by Arsenal’s move (Picture: PA) Arteta was ‘absolutely smitten’ with the idea of signing Vinicius (Picture: Getty) But after twice being rejected by Vinicius, Madrid’s efforts reached a ‘turning point’ last Wednesday. Just hours later, the superstar winger had wiped his Instagram page in preparation for a new chapter at the Bernabeu and official confirmation of his renewal followed soon after. The report states that Arsenal first began to get serious about Vinicius over the winter, ‘speaking at length’ with the Brazil international and his entourage to outline the project he would be spearheading under Arteta. Continued ‘frosty’ relations between Vinicius and Madrid gave Arsenal increasing confidence that a deal had been possible – and the Gunners were optimistic of pulling off a sensational coup right up until last week. Vinicius was desperate to get his future resolved after returning from the World Cup (Picture: Getty) Vinicius’ inner circle are said to have confirmed the player’s contract agreement to Arsenal last Wednesday, with representatives expressing their gratitude for how the north London giants had handled themselves during their pursuit. The report adds that Vinicius’ camp stressed that the decision was reached due to Vinicius ‘affection’ for Madrid and the significant ‘financial effort’ that had been made to keep him in the Spanish capital. While there was understandable ‘disappointment’ at the Emirates, Arsenal bosses were also ‘accepting’ of Vinicius’ decision, aware that such a move was always going to come with the strong possibility of failure. The Athletic claim that many at Arsenal saw it as an indicator of progression that they had even been in with a shot of capturing one of the most high-profile players in the world game. Forced to consider alternatives, Arsenal have been tentatively linked with Paris Saint-Germain’s Bradley Barcola and Juventus’ Kenan Yildiz in recent days. The Gunners moved to replace Leandro Trossard with the addition of Club Brugge winger Christos Tzolis last month, before Bruno Guimaraes joined in a £75million deal from Newcastle to reinforce Arteta’s title-winning midfield. The English champions have also brought in Illan Meslier on a free transfer as cover for David Raya, while Piero Hincapie was signe

Arsenal are open to offers for Myles Lewis-Skelly (Picture: Getty) Chelsea and Manchester United have been informed of the price it would take to sign Myles Lewis-Skelly from Arsenal. The England international appeared to have resurrected his Gunners career during last season’s run-in when he was parachuted back into the side and offered the chance to shine in his preferred central midfield role. Having been forced to watch much of Arsenal’s title-winning campaign from the sidelines, a late change of heart, coupled with Martin Zubimendi’s loss of form, saw the Hale End Academy graduate back in the side for a run of crucial fixtures. A polished display in the Champions League final rounded off an impressive series of performances and it appeared he was set for a key role in Mikel Arteta’s side, especially given he signed a new long-term contract just over a year ago. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. The recent signing of Bruno Guimaraes has, however, added an extra layer of competition for places in Arsenal’s engine room and the arrival of the Brazil international has coincided with fresh speculation about Lewis-Skelly’s future. Reports claim the versatile midfielder, who can also play at left-back, has been offered to Chelsea while United were also sounded out earlier this summer. According to The Guardian, Arsenal would demand a modest fee in the region of £45million which would comfortably be in budget for their Premier League rivals. Myles Lewis-Skelly could be on the move this summer (Picture: Getty) United are keen to sign a left-sided defender given the doubts surrounding the durability of Luke Shaw. Newcastle United’s Lewis Hall is a top target but the Magpies are holding out for a huge price which could prompt Michael Carrick to look elsewhere. RB Leipzig’s 28-year-old left-back David Raum is on the club’s radar, while Racing Santander defender Jorge Salinas has been scouted but he looks set to join Atletico Madrid instead. With Arsenal still requiring a left-sided forward, club legend Lee Dixon envisages a scenario whereby a swap deal involving Marcus Rashford could suit all parties. Myles Lewis-Skelly has been offered to Chelsea (Picture: Getty) ‘Would I swap them? You know what, I probably would,’ the ex-Arsenal and England full-back told BestBettingSites.. ‘That’s nothing against Myles Lewis-Skelly; it’s about giving him the freedom to go and expand his game elsewhere. ‘With Marcus Rashford, he’s a player who needs an arm around his shoulder, and Arteta would be great for him. ‘Give him that love, give him the freedom to play on that left side, and yeah, I’d like to see him in an Arsenal shirt.’ Comment now Comments Add Metro as a Preferred Source on Google Add as preferred source
Newcastle have so far rebuffed Manchester United (Picture: Getty) Newcastle United defender Lewis Hall still wants to force through a move to Manchester United despite being told he will not be sold this summer. Michael Carrick has expressed interest in bringing the left-back to Old Trafford to provide cover and competition for Luke Shaw. Shaw enjoyed one of his best seasons last term, featuring in all 38 of the club’s Premier League games, but United are wary about his workload given Champions League football is on the horizon. Manchester United made an approach to Newcastle for Hall, who has developed into one of the best left-backs in the Premier League over the past two seasons. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. Shaw’s form at St James’ Park since his £35m move from Chelsea earned him an England call-up last year, although he was left out of Thomas Tuchel’s squad for the recent World Cup. Newcastle have already lost manager Eddie Howe, midfielder pair Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali, and winger Anthony Gordon this summer. Unwilling to sell any more integral members of their first-team squad, Newcastle informed Manchester United that Hall was not for sale. Newcastle and England defender Lewis Hall (Picture: Getty) But The Sun say Hall remains keen to force through a move away from Newcastle and has made it clear he wants to join the Red Devils. Hall felt Howe cost him a place in England’s World Cup squad but still wants to leave despite the change in the dugout, with Matthias Jaissle taking over at St James’ Park. Newcastle are in a strong negotiating position given Hall is still contracted to the club until 2029 but are aware several players are concerned about the direction of the club. Manchester United boss Michael Carrick (Picture: Getty) The Magpies finished just 12th in the Premier League last season after previously qualifying for the Champions League and have seen several key players depart. Jermaine Jenas, the former Newcastle midfielder, has told Hall that joining Manchester United would be a ‘great move’. ‘I think it’s a great move for him, I really do,’ Jenas, who spent three years at Newcastle, told 10bet. ‘He’s had a fantastic couple of years at Newcastle. I think he was obviously a huge Newcastle United fan after going there from Chelsea and so on, but he’s one of those players that people looked at and said he should probably be at the World Cup. ‘Like I said, he’s had a good, solid year; his development year-in, year-out seems to be getting better and better. ‘For a club like Manchester United to come in for him is a huge step in the right direction—not only for United, because he’s just consistent week-in, week-out, but it’s also a big loss for Newcastle, I’m not going to lie. ‘For him and his personal career, it’s a great move.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.
