Ceballos set for eventual move to England?


Arsenal’s on loan midfielder Dani Ceballos has informed his agent that he would like to have his long-term future secured by January at the latest. Ceballos is currently with the Gunners on a 12 month loan deal, but could be set to return to Real Madrid at the conclusion of his temporary spell.

Ceballos has caught the eye since his arrival at the Emirates, with manager Unai Emery regularly playing the midfielder at the heart of his team. Arsenal made Ceballos one of their key acquisitions of last summer.

However, it is understood Ceballos is not keen on a long-term move to England and wants to prove himself at parent club Real Madrid.

Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane had previously indicated that Ceballos could have a future at the Bernabeu, but is not yet ready to play on a regular basis for the club.

Arsenal have no option to sign the player on a permanent deal and it is understood that Real are seeking close to 30 million euros if a deal were to be agreed to allow Ceballos to leave permanently.

Arsenal midfielder wanted by Napoli

Torreira to Napoli?


Arsenal midfielder Lucas Torreira has reportedly emerged as a target for Italian side Napoli ahead of the winter transfer window.

Torreira has struggled for regular gametime in the Premier League this term and he has managed just four starts with two of them resulting after the recent snub of Granit Xhaka.

According to Calciomercato, the Uruguay international is currently unsettled at the Capital outfit, considering he has yet to adapt to the style of living in England.

It is added that he is eager to make the return to the Serie A and Napoli could potentially compete with AC Milan for his services when the transfer window reopens.

The Gunners snubbed the chance to sell Torreira during the summer transfer window and they could follow the same trend at the turn of the year, particularly with Xhaka tipped to part ways with the club.

Xhaka has not featured for the north London giants since his altercation with the fans during a game against Crystal Palace and reports indicate that he may have already made his final appearance for the club.

United to swoop for Rice
Football Transfer Centre


Manchester United are reportedly preparing a transfer proposal for West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice as they seek to improve their options in the centre of the park.

The England international only signed a long-term deal with the Hammers last year but this has not ceased the speculation regarding his future with the east London side.

According to Goal.com, the Red Devils have identified Rice as the priority target to bolster the midfield and they are prepared to come up with an offer worth £80m to prise him away from the Hammers.

It is added that the Mancunian giants will initially make the move at the turn of the year but they are prepared to wait until next summer, should the Hammers reject a mid-season transfer.

Rice, who has come through the Hammers academy, has racked nearly 85 appearances. He has also cemented his spot as a regular for the Three Lions since March 2019.

Rice wanted by the Red Devils in January


Manchester United are reportedly planning a £70m bid for West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice when the transfer window reopens in the New Year.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer‘s side were linked with the likes of Bruno Fernandes and Sean Longstaff during the summer transfer window but they failed to pursue a single midfielder before the deadline.

According to The Mirror, the Red Devils are likely to go on a mid-season spending spree following their slow beginning to the campaign which sees them in the 12th spot.

It is added that a central midfielder remains one of their prime priorities and Rice has been earmarked as the main target ahead of the winter transfer window.

Rice was previously valued at around £50m but reports suggest that the Red Devils may need to offer at least £70m in order to tempt the Hammers into a mid-season sale.

Rice has not missed a single minute of the Hammers’ Premier League campaign this term and he has also emerged into a key performer for the England national side.

Arsenal legend singles out Chelsea midfielder for praise

Wright praises Mount’s impact at Chelsea


Arsenal legend Ian Wright has heaped praise on midfielder Mason Mount following Chelsea’s Premier League triumph over Brighton & Hove Albion.

The 20-year-old only made his breakthrough for the Blues at the beginning of the season but he has already an impact with three assists in the Premier League alone.

Against Brighton, Mount was a constant attacking threat from the number 10 role but his teammates could not make the most out of his distribution during the course of the game.

Still, the England international made the difference by winning the penalty which led to the opening goal and the Blues eventually sealed a 2-0 triumph over Graham Potter’s side.

Speaking in the Match of the Day programme, Wright praised the young attacker, who has taken his chance under Frank Lampard, he told: “He’s taken the opportunity, Frank’s shown a lot of faith in him. 

“They did create a lot of chances today, I thought they wasted a few of the chances. But Mason Mount, he’s somebody that is making a difference, especially in this area of the field.”

Chelsea‘s win over Brighton sees them on 11 points after seven league games. They are presently sitting in the sixth position but one of Arsenal or Manchester United could leapfrog them after the Monday night clash.
