Arsenal News Show: Calafori deal TWIST! | Fulham open Smith Rowe talks! | Oshimen UPDATE

People, I'm back again. Thank you very much for tuning back in each and every time to my long-term supporters. Don't think your support goes unnoticed. I appreciate that. If you're new here, you might as well subscribe, turn on your notification bells because you're part of the DG Nation. Now, obviously, England lost yesterday, two goals to one against Spain. Commiserations to England. Congratulations to Spain. But now with both the Copa America, congratulations to Argentina and commiserations to Colombia on that front. Now with international football taking a back seat until September, the transfer rumours and things are going to heat up in the sense of, you know, going into July. This is when it will start to be kicked into motion with international duty being done. Players that are either leaving the club or joining the club, they can be wheels in motion. Now, apparently, you know, there's some news around Osserman, Fulham have opened talks with Emil Smith-Rowe. Obviously, Kyle Ofori and Mikel Moreno are probably the two players that are aggressively linked with Arsenal Football Club. And there's a couple of other bits and pieces to go through, people. So if you give me two seconds, I'll share my screen and we'll get straight on into this. Now, this was behind the paywall. Obviously, we've managed to find a way around it. Arsenal pull up move for Real Sociedad's Euro 2024 winner Mikel Moreno. Can't we get him and Zoubamendi people in that regard? As we know, in case you don't know, once again, congratulations to Spain and David Rayo. Lokonga's move to Sevilla has been completed. It's a season-long loan with an option to buy. It's been confirmed on Arsenal.com. There are some rumours that there's an option to buy and there's certain clauses that will turn that into an obligation. So we've got some money from Amari Hutchinson's move from Chelsea to Ipswich. Obviously, Mika Beres has left for £4 million, probably picked up a loan fee where Sambi Lokonga's concerned. Tavares is already training with Lazio. So we're getting some outgoings going and Enketi is still linked with Marseille. Obviously, Smith Rowe will get on to him with Fulham. Aaron Ramsdale, the latest club to be linked with him is Southampton. So yeah, we're getting players going. But yeah, going back into the Mikel Moreno stuff, like clockwork with the Euros being done, you've got him and Arsenal linked in terms of a move. Arsenal are plotting a move for Mikel Moreno who played a crucial role in Spain's triumph at Euro 2024. What a fantastic moment, not only winning it, but we all saw he scored at the same ground his dad scored and he did the same celebration. His child and the dad's grandchild got some living up to do. It's a bit like Lionel Messi's grandkids really and truly, or Messi's kids actually, because you've got Sergio Aguero, Bobby Lui, Messi and obviously R.I.P. Maradona as a grandfather of such people. Apparently, Arsenal's interest in Moreno predates the start of the tournament in Germany and his reputation has been further enhanced by his performances over the past month. He's featured in all seven of Spain's matches in Euro 2024. I mean, he's available at a quote-unquote cut price or discount because he's contracted until 2025. Allegedly, Atletico want him as well, people. And obviously, he ticks a lot of boxes. If you don't raise the ceiling, raise the floor. I know it's not an exciting signing that some fans would get behind. But for me, I think he's got the experience. He's obviously got the consistency levels and the competencies in his role. And I really want Arsenal to sign a midfielder. And you know what? Him, Declan Rice and Odegaard, we can move with that, people. As it says here, he is slightly older than our usual targets, people. But you know, you see what Jorginho and Trossart are giving to us at this moment in time. It says here he's been consistent and reliable for Sociedad over the last six seasons. He's more than 30 appearances in each of his last league campaigns, which I can't say that really and truly. Former teammate of Odegaard, he can play as a defensive midfielder and a box-to-box role. And he probably would be on the left-hand side. Declan Rice will probably move slightly to the right as much as it's quite fluid. Imagine Declan Rice, Benjamin White, Saliba, Saka and Odegaard, that seems to be the right-hand side. The left-hand side now, obviously, California, Mikel Moreno, those are two probably permanent fixtures. There's been a lot of movement at left-back and in central midfield. And maybe whoever's on the left-hand side, if it's Trossart or Martinelli, they'll get, quite frankly, get a bit more support people. Arsenal are likely to face competition for Moreno's signature. However, Spanish reports are claiming that both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are interested. It's been claimed in Spain Sociedad would want around £20 million for him. Meanwhile, Arsenal are understood to be in negotiations with Bologna over the move for Italy defender Riccardo Califori, who could cost around £45 million. As we know, he can play as a centre-half as well as a left-back. He enhanced his reputation for his exploits in Italy off the back of a great season for Bologna, in which they will be in the Champions League. Once again, Lokonga has completed a loan move to Sevilla. Apparently, it can be turned into a permanent deal for £10 million. Quite the hit. Apparently, we've got a sell-on percentage. It's understood to be 25%. If Sevilla decide against triggering the option, the expectation is that Lokonga's performances in Spain could help create a market for him next summer. Amen. Tavares, as we know, is set to be joining Lazio on loan with an obligation to make it permanent for around £7 million. He's actually already training with them people. So, hurry up with the outgoings. But that's where Moreno's concerned. As I said, Tavares is already training with Lazio. I'm surprised it's not been confirmed on Arsenal.com. Fulham have opened talks over a deal for Smith-Rowe. With a bid in mind, Smith-Rowe is keen to remain at his boyhood club, Arsenal. But should it become apparent there's no room for him in the side, a move could materialise. Again, Smith-Rowe will be allowed to leave Arsenal this summer as Fulham open talks. Apparently, they've retained an interest. And apparently, Arteta is willing to let some of the club's fringe players leave. For someone who joined us at 10 years of age and has played 115 times for the club, probably does need to leave. I hope he doesn't. I hope we don't sanction a move before a permanent body in midfield comes in, people. Apparently, Crystal Palace, as well as Fulham, are also monitoring such situation. Once again, Bologna are waiting for Arsenal to improve their offer for California, which currently stands at €45m plus €5m in bonuses. In the meantime, Bologna are attempting to get Basel to lower their 50% sell-on clause. However, Basel are not listening. I wouldn't listen. You negotiate that. If I'm Basel, turn off the phone. Obviously, that has ramifications for Arsenal. Turn off the phone. 50%. They did a madness, especially because he's only been at Bologna for a year or so. Allegedly, we offered Kyrgios on loan with an obligation to buy. Bologna weren't hearing that and they've rejected the proposal. He's been linked with Bologna, Napoli, Roma, Juventus, several Italian based clubs. Once again, they've rejected such people where including Kyrgios in the deal is concerned. California has allegedly agreed personal terms with Arsenal. Obviously, medicals and things like that. We can't progress this deal until we get it done. Allegedly, they want €50m plus add-ons while Arsenal match the asking price only through the of performance-related bonuses. Hope we get over the line in that, people. We heard it was a pivotal week for California last week. This week, he's still not an Arsenal player. Marseille are still linked with Eddie Nketiah. Ironically, former Arsenal man Aubameyang could be set for a move to the Middle East in which, obviously, they'll get a fee for that and they'll need to sign a striker. I don't know if the Marseille rumours with Eddie Nketiah are going to go away. If I'm honest with you, the chance to play first-team football for a big team like Marseille in France in the top five division and work with Dzerbi is not quite our tale, but you could do a lot worse. Allegedly, people, we're holding out for €40m. I hear it. We get robbed all the time. Tommy Setford, currently of Ajax, is close to finalising a move to Arsenal. Allegedly, we've agreed a fee of €1m, which equates to about £840,000. He now is going to finalise personal terms and undergo a medical. He was in the last year of his contract, the Dutch club have reluctantly allowed him to leave ahead of potentially leaving on a free. Obviously, he'll be the second goalie we've signed for the Youth Academy because we've signed Njordgaard third, if you include Rijkaard. There's a couple of goalkeepers linked, Dan Bentley of Wolves, they're all linked with us. We've already spoken about Tavares and Lokonga. Happy to see they've been gone early, if I'm honest with you. Ivan Toni has told his friends he wants to join Man United. I mean, you've got to keep an eye on the Toni stuff with Arsenal in mind. Atletico Madrid are in the race for Moreno, so it's not just Arsenal having a free hit. Dani Almo, one of the players of the tournament in the Euros, someone that I think would fit Arsenal like a glove. There were some rumours Manchester City activated his release clause. Romano has said that's wide of the mark, people, and they're not currently working on the deal. So hopefully we can get involved. PSG are set to reignite their interest in Osserman, people. They're willing to get a deal done, but they're unwilling to actually pay his release clause, people. Man United and Chelsea have been linked. Not sure what Chelsea are doing. I think Man United have moved away. Arsenal have been linked, but it seems that they've gone quiet or there's other priorities. You lot know I'm a big fan of Atalanta midfielder Koop Miners. Apparently it's a tussle between Juventus and Liverpool for his signature, people. Allegedly they're asking for €60m in which you'd want to negotiate cheaply. I think Koop Miners would be a treat. Apologies for our football club. Check out the video I did on him. Team News in Texas said Arsenal's interest in Eze is real. With the Euros over, I expect the links to solidify. We'll have to see. We'll still be linked with Nico Williams, although it appears that Barcelona are the frontrunners for such people. We've been linked with Real Madrid goalkeeper Lou Nin. I mean, it doesn't make sense. You're not going to play ahead of Courtois. Are you going to get ahead of David Rayo? I mean, you know, if you're on the side for the club, join us. But I have to take those links with a pinch of salt. Destiny, Dewey and Sudakov, two players that have been linked with Arsenal. Apparently Spurs are in the mix. Where Dewey is concerned, he's admired by Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs, according to Romano. Bayern Munich as well as PSG are set to launch bids slash have had bids rejected. He'd be a great player. Generational talent. In relation to Xavi Simmonds, who a lot of Arsenal fans would like, obviously the Euros are done. Romano said Xavi will focus on deciding his future and next week could already be really important. Two clubs are still leading the race, Bayern and Leipzig. So it seems that he wants to go to the Bundesliga or back to the Bundesliga. These two clubs are pushing and they have the advantage that both clubs have been pushing for a long time, for months. Simmonds already decided to leave PSG on loan. Simmonds will probably leave PSG next summer in 2025 on a permanent transfer. So between PSG and Simmonds it's 99% over. Now it's time for a loan and next summer will probably be for a permanent transfer. It's a bit bewildering because, you know, as PSG are doing a rebuild, you could do a lot worse than Xavi Simmonds. So I wonder what's going on there. And he's obviously spoken about Manchester United potentially being in the race for Simmonds as well, folks. We're still linked with Guerri people, as well as Californian, as well as being fairly stocked at centre-half people. Romano has said Arsenal are one of the clubs alongside Liverpool who are interested in signing Guerri. He's got two years left on his deal. Apparently he's rejected a contract extension. Done well for Crystal Palace. One of the only players, I believe, in the England squad during the Euros that can leave with any sort of face-save. So wouldn't be against it. Can't see it because they're going to ask for something really, really important in that regard. We've gone over that already. We've gone over Xavi Simmonds already. So we see if this website could do something new for us people. Romano confirms. What is this in relation to Nico Williams? Romano has said Barca are set to open talks with Nico Williams this week. It seems that he's going to go there. His wage demands could be seen as excessive, but you know what? Them 200 grand a week wages, boy, the way you're going to play. If you keep doing what you're doing for Spain, it's the going rate. You've got to pay that. Arsenal and Chelsea have been, you know, thrown in the ring, but it seems like if anything, we have to be receptive to, for whatever reason, Barcelona pulling out of the deal. It would be interesting had he not have signed that new deal because his contract would have been running out next summer. So I think he goes to link up with Yalmala at Barcelona, but we'll have to see. Chiarantini, Arsenal apparently make a decision. We'll look to cash in on him on a permanent transfer. There's no way we're going to make our £25 million back on the 27-year-old. In relation to Tini, Osman, Smith-Rowe, Dewey, Almo, Nico Williams, Moreno, Lunin, Califori, Kivio, Lokonga, Tavares, I think I've said everything there, people. That's all there is. If there's any other news, you can rest assured that I'll get the vids and live streams and all of those things out for you. Obviously, people, turn on your notification bells because at the time of making this video, I've got a video coming out where England, my thoughts on England during the Euros are concerned. And I'm sure I've got a Jao Gomes tactical analysis video coming out, people, as well for Monday. So yeah, man, the content doesn't stop. I'm off to get this uploaded for you lot and then obviously start to edit some other pieces. So yeah, man, big up you lot for listening. Let me know your thoughts. If you haven't liked and subscribed, make sure you do, please. Most importantly, stay safe, stay blessed. Peace.
