🚨 TRANSFER UPDATE: Arsenal have been told it could take a whopping £100 million ($132m) to sign England star Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa this summer.

Mikel Arteta reportedly sees the 23-year-old as a key addition to strengthen his squad, but with Rogers under contract until 2031, Villa are under no pressure to sell.

Will Arsenal break the bank for Morgan Rogers?

According to reports, Arsenal have made an initial £55 million bid for Bruno Guimarães, but Newcastle United have rejected the offer and are unwilling to let one of their key players leave easily.

The report claims that the newly crowned Premier League champions see the Brazilian midfielder as a priority signing after his impressive performances at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and they are already preparing an improved offer.

A move for Guimarães would make sense for Arsenal as they continue to strengthen their midfield under manager Mikel Arteta. The 28-year-old has been one of Newcastle's standout performers since joining from Olympique Lyonnais and remains a fan favourite at St James' Park.

However, at this stage, the story remains speculation and transfer reporting, with no official confirmation from either club regarding a second bid or an agreement with the player.

If Arsenal return with a significantly higher offer, this could become one of the biggest Premier League transfer sagas of the summer.

Arsenal hold talks with Bruno Guimaraes over shock transfer as Newcastle brace for formal offer. Arsenal have reportedly initiated surprise exploratory talks with the camp of Newcastle United star Bruno Guimaraes as they plot a blockbuster summer midfield reinforcement. Mikel Arteta’s recruitment team is actively gauging the market for the 28-year-old Brazil international, forcing Newcastle to brace for a formal offer.

Former Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey is set to become a free agent this summer after Villarreal decided against extending his contract. The Liga club have opted not to trigger the 12-month extension clause in his deal. The Ghana international, currently facing trial in the UK over serious allegations, will now be forced to search for a new team ahead of next season.

Arsenal’s interest in Manu Koné is starting to look increasingly serious. Multiple reports in England, Italy, and France now claim the club has already agreed personal terms with the midfielder’s representatives while preparing talks with AS Roma over a transfer fee. The 25-year-old French international has reportedly become one of Mikel Arteta’s priority midfield targets this summer, especially because Roma are under financial pressure and may need a major sale before the end of June to satisfy UEFA financial regulations.

The hype around Ayyoub Bouaddi is growing fast after Morocco’s impressive 1-1 draw with Brazil at the 2026 World Cup, and reports now suggest Arsenal have intensified their pursuit of the teenager.

The transfer speculation around Bradley Barcola is growing quickly ahead of the summer window. Multiple reports in France and England claim the Paris Saint-Germain winger is considering a move after becoming frustrated with his role in some of the club’s biggest matches last season.
