5 mins ago07:40Charlie GordonAnthony Gordon earmarked by ArsenalArsenal have identified Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon as a future target and they could make an approach for him next summer, according to The Daily Mail.
Gordon is expected to stay at St. James' Park beyond tonight's deadline and the Magpies are attempting to tie him down to a new contract.
But the 23-year-old has admirers in high places, with Liverpool showing interest earlier in the current window.
And now that Arsenal are also on the case, the temptation for Gordon to leave the north-east over the coming years may only increase.
9 mins ago07:36Charlie GordonJadon Sancho twistManchester United and Juventus are at a standstill in talks for Jadon Sancho, according to Fabrizio Romano, despite reports earlier this week suggesting that an agreement had been struck between the Red Devils and the Turin giants.
United's financial demands are reportedly deemed too high by Juve, whose chiefs fear that Sancho wants to join Chelsea instead.
It is believed that Juventus' move for the winger will only be revived today if United are willing to drop the price for a loan or a permanent switch.
14 mins ago07:31Charlie GordonArsenal signing Premier League captainArsenal have agreed a loan deal for Bournemouth captain Neto, according to The Athletic.
The Gunners turned their attention to the 35-year-old goalkeeper after hitting a snag in talks with Espanyol for Joan Garcia.
The La Liga side are determined to bank all of Garcia's £25million release clause, forcing Arsenal to pursue other options.
Mikel Arteta needs a new back-up to David Raya as Aaron Ramsdale closes in on a permanent move to Southampton.
And Neto risks being frozen out of the team if he stays at Bournemouth, with Kepa Arrizabalaga now on the south coast following his loan move from Chelsea.

Paris Saint-Germain are no longer in the hunt, leaving Chelsea and Al-Ahli to battle it out for the Napoli striker.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea approached Napoli with a new proposal for Osimhen last night, which centred around a loan and an obligation to buy the 25-year-old next summer.
Salary discussions are also underway, though the Blues' offer is almost certain to fall short of what their super-rich Saudi rivals have put on the table.
The situation is tense, but it is said Osimhen will only head to the Middle East if talks with Chelsea fail to bear fruit.
More updates on this one to come later today.
