Ethan Nwaneri’s future has been the subject of intense speculation (Picture: Getty) Arsenal do not want to sell Ethan Nwaneri this summer and would prefer to send one of their most promising teenage talents out on loan. The England Under-21 international’s career stagnated last season after enduring a difficult loan spell at Marseille. Sent to the Ligue 1 club in the hope of gaining regular first team experience Nwaneri began promisingly, scoring on his debut, but Roberto De Zerbi’s sudden departure spelled disaster. The 19-year-old struggled to win the faith of the current Tottenham head coach’s successor,Habib Beye, and ultimately made just nine appearances during his time in France.

Nwaneri returned to his parent club in the summer, determined to convince Mikel Arteta he was worthy of a first team place, and appeared to be making good progress in pre-season. His omission from the matchday squad last Sunday as Arsenal swept to a 3-0 Community Shield win against Manchester City suggested his future lay elsewhere. Indeed, speaking ahead of that fixture, Arteta hinted a difficult decision needed to be made, saying: ‘I want him to be at the club. But we have to think about the medium and long term,’ Arteta said. Ethan Nwaneri spent the second half of last season on loan at Marseille (Credits: REUTERS) ‘What is best for the player? Ethan needs to play football. If he stays here, we must be able to guarantee him those minutes, otherwise it won’t be beneficial for either side.’ According to the BBC, however, Arsenal are now determined to keep hold of Nwaneri, even if it means loaning him out again. Galatasaray and Borussia Dortmund have both been linked with the attacking midfielder whose path into the Arsenal first team is currently blocked by Martin Odegaard, Eberechi Eze and Mikel Merino. If Arsenal were to receive an offer significantly above their valuation then the picture could change as outlined by CEO Richard Garlick. {"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Arteta says Community Shield statement win proves Arsenal are 'ready for it'","contentUrl":"https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2026\/08\/17\/7779755569864816200\/480x270_MP4_7779755569864816200.mp4","description":"Mikel Arteta hailed Arsenal's desire \"to go straight again\" after Manchester City were overwhelmed 3-0 by the Premier League champions in the Community Shield.","duration":"T8M14S","height":270,"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/08\/17\/07\/110678029-0-image-a-8_1786947795231.jpg","uploadDate":"2026-08-17T07:22:17+0100","width":480} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page window.addEventListener('metroVideo:relatedVideosCarouselLoaded', function(data) { if (typeof(data.detail) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel.el_) === 'undefined') { return; } var player = data.detail.carousel.el_; var container = player.closest('.metro-video-player'); var placeholder = container.querySelector('.metro-video-player__up-next-placeholder'); if (placeholder) { container.removeChild(placeholder); container.classList.add('metro-video-player--related-videos-loaded'); } }); Speaking about Nwaneri’s situation, and that of his fellow Hale End Academy graduate Myles Lewis-Skelly, who has been linked with Manchester United and Chelsea, Garlick told talkSPORT: ‘Obviously there may be speculation, I’m not going to go into that from other clubs but we’re very happy with Myles and the position he’s in at the club.’ In a subsequent interview with the BBC, however, Garlick added: ‘We obviously believe in our academy and have been very successful with the players that have come through that academy, Myles
In this week's episode of Albion Unlimited from BBC Radio Sussex, Johnny Cantor was joined by Norwegian football expert Guillermo Munoz to look ahead to Brighton's trip to Tromso in the Conference League on Thursday. Cantor then asked about Tromso's continuing form despite losing one of their top goalscorers to Hull City, Jens Hjerto-Dahl.
Arsenal appear ‘way ahead’ of Manchester City, says Peter Crouch (That Peter Crouch Podcast) Peter Crouch says Arsenal look ‘way ahead’ of Manchester City and more than ‘ready’ for the season ahead on the basis of their Community Shield performance. Arsenal swept City aside in an utterly dominant display in Cardiff, with Enzo Maresca given a rude awakening in his first official match in the dugout. Riccardo Calafiori fired the Gunners in front inside 24 seconds to ensure City were up against it from minute one and Kai Havertz increased the deficit with a close-range header on the half-hour mark. The Premier League champions flew out of the blocks after the restart and within three minutes they were duly rewarded for their efforts as Martin Odegaard kept his composure to put the contest to bed. 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 proved an unforgettable day for Arsenal’s summer signing from Club Brugge, Christos Tzolis, who provided the assists for both Havertz and Odegaard on his full debut for Mikel Arteta’s side. Myles Lewis-Skelly also shone amid incessant rumours over his future, setting up Calafiori’s opener with an exquisite shimmy and through ball directly into the Italian’s path to get Arsenal up and running. The north Londoners will be looking to carry that same form into Friday night when kick off their Premier League title defence at home to Frank Lampard’s newly promoted Coventry. The Gunners cruised to the club’s 18th Community Shield triumph in Cardiff (Picture: Getty) Calafiori fired Arsenal ahead inside 24 seconds (Picture: Getty) Reflecting on Sunday’s one-sided Community Shield on That Peter Crouch Podcast, Crouch hailed Arsenal as far and away the better team at the Principality Stadium, before picking out Tzolis and Lewis-Skelly for special praise. ‘I think City will improve but Arsenal were ahead of them, way ahead of them. They look so ready,’ the ex-England, Liverpool and Tottenham striker said. ‘Tzolis on the left-hand side there, he looks like a player, Riccardo Calafiori looked good… the calibre of the goals. Arteta’s men kick off the new Premier League season against Coventry (Picture: Getty) ‘Myles Lewis-Skelly, he’s let that ball run and it’s unbelievable. It’s a beautiful pass. If that was Martin Odegaard or someone you’d expect like a Michael Olise… I thought that was a beautiful bit of play.

Carlos Baleba looks set to join Man Utd (Photo: Getty) Tim Sherwood says Carlos Baleba is ‘not a game-changing signing’ and has named the England midfielder Manchester United should be targeting. It was reported on Wednesday that United were closing in on the signing of Brighton star Baleba after submitting an offer worth up to £65million. The Red Devils attempted to sign the 22-year-old last summer and had even agreed personal terms with the player, only to be priced out of a move. It appears the Seagulls have lowered their valuation somewhat after the Cameroon international’s form dipped last season, with the suggestion being that the transfer talk had become a distraction. 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. Michael Carrick’s priority this summer has been to sign three midfielders, with Baleba set to follow Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans though the door at Old Trafford. But while Sherwood rates the Brighton man, he is stunned that United are not interested in a different Premier League midfielder. Asked if he thought Baleba was a good signing for United, the Premier League-winning captain told Sky Sports News: ‘Yeah, I’m a Baleba! I think he’s very good. Tim Sherwood is ‘really surprised’ Man Utd aren’t targeting a Crystal Palace star (Photo: Getty) ‘I’m a bit surprised they haven’t done it earlier. Whether Brighton have been waiting to try and get the price up. ‘If they’re letting him go now he was obviously available at the beginning of the window, so just go and take him and bring him to Michael as quickly as possible and let him fit into the system and how he wants to play. ‘I’m really surprised they haven’t gone for Adam Wharton or any team hasn’t gone for Adam Wharton. He would have been my choice. I like players who are a little bit more cultured. Adam Wharton has won the FA Cup, Community Shield and Conference League with Palace (Photo: Getty) ‘Maybe the balance of the midfield that they already have at Manchester United, they need someone with legs in there to get around the pitch and I think Baleba fits that bill. ‘I still think he’s raw but he’s going to good coaches in Michael Carrick and Jonathan Woodgate, he’s in good hands there. It’s positive news for Man United fans, just add one to your squad because there’s more games now.’ United have been linked with Wharton in the past, who has played a key role in Crystal Palace’s success over the past two seasons, notably winning player of the match in their Conference League final victory in May. Sherwood says Baleba is ‘not the finished article’ (Photo: Getty) Shockingly omitted from England’s World Cup squad, the 22-year-old, valued at around £100m, is now said to be of interest to Manchester City as a potential replacement for Rodri. While Wharton would seem ready to jump into any team, Sherwood has warned United that Baleba, who will miss the start of the season because of an ankle injury, is ‘not the finished article’. ‘I’m not sure he’s a game-changer signing, I wouldn’t be that excited,’ the former Tottenham player and manager added. ‘I’m not falling off my chair if I’m a Man United fan about this signing. ‘He’s got a lot of developing to come, and the reason why his fee has gone down is because he was so poor last season. He’s brought the fee down. But he’s not a dud signing, that’s for sure. ‘And he’s still got development in him but he’s not finished. They’ve got a lot of young players that are not finished articles. Tielemans is and Kobbie Mainoo is still developing, so it’s another option for Carrick.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.

The Sky Blues, who will play in the top-flight for the first time in 25 years, will take on the challenge of survival alongside Ipswich Town and Hull City.

Head coach Craig Bellamy has lost another member of his Wales backroom staff after James Rowberry decided to leave to concentrate on his role as Stoke City assistant manager. Rowberry informed the Football Association of Wales (FAW) earlier this summer of his decision to end his part-time role. The 41-year-old had been combining both coaching positions since joining Stoke, where he is one of two assistants to boss Mark Robins, in January 2025.
