With Arsenal closing in on signing Riccardo Calafiori, they are likely to allow Jakub Kiwior to leave the club.

The Polish defender has been highly sought-after during this transfer window, with several clubs expressing interest in him.

During negotiations to sell Calafiori to Arsenal, Bologna discussed the possibility of signing Kiwior. Additionally, Juventus and Napoli have shown interest in him in recent weeks.

A report from Football Italia indicates that more clubs are now joining the race for his signature, including Inter Milan. The Serie A champions are actively seeking new defenders, especially after losing Juan Cabal to Juventus.

Inter Milan has now turned their attention to Kiwior and will make a move to sign him if Arsenal makes him available for transfer.

Emile Smith Rowe was one of the scorers as Arsenal defeated Leyton Orient 2-0 in a behind-closed-doors friendly today.

Both Fulham and Crystal Palace have shown interest in the midfielder, especially after he lost his place in the first team at Arsenal.

Although the Gunners want him to stay, they will not stand in his way if he asks to leave, provided the offer is right.

As those two clubs try to sign him, Smith Rowe is preparing well for the new season, hopeful that he will be a starter if he remains at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta likes Smith Rowe and will give him chances to play if he stays fit. However, injuries have plagued him over the last few seasons.

Arsenal has become a good place for players to transition into management, as yet another former Gunner becomes a manager in a top European league.

The Gunners have enjoyed the talents of many great players throughout their history, particularly during Arsene Wenger’s tenure, which produced many leaders.

The Frenchman led his team to several domestic trophies, including the unbeaten 2003/2004 Premier League title.

Since Wenger’s departure in 2018, several former players who worked with him have become successful managers.

The current Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta, played under Wenger, and the latest former Gunner to follow this path is Cesc Fabregas.

Arsenal has done all they can to keep Chido Obi Martin at the club, but there is a good chance the youngster, who scored ten goals in a game, will leave.

He is due for a new deal, and Arsenal has offered him one of the best terms ever extended to a teenager.

However, he has spoken to the likes of Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Manchester City, and Manchester United, among other clubs.

He now has to decide whether to accept Arsenal’s offer or move to another top club, and he seems to be leaning towards an exit.

Obi Martin is not impressed that he did not get chances to play in the Arsenal first team despite his goal-scoring feats for the club’s youth teams.

Bologna CEO Claudio Fenucci has responded to calls for updates on the Riccardo Calafiori saga.

The defender’s complicated move to Arsenal is one of the biggest stories in Italian football right now.

Arsenal found him too good to ignore after watching the defender at Euro 2024, and they already have an agreement on personal terms with him.

They need to agree on a fee with Bologna and make payment before he can join them, but the move has stalled for now.

In the last few weeks, there has hardly been any movement, and Calafiori has been asked to return to the club for pre-season after his holiday.

Pedro Neto is one of the attackers constantly linked with a move to Arsenal, with some Gooners considering him an ideal backup to Bukayo Saka.

Neto has been in fantastic form over the last few seasons as one of the top players in the Premier League.

Injuries have robbed him of several games in England’s top flight, but whenever Neto is on the pitch, he delivers delightful performances on the right wing for Wolves.

His pace and trickery make him tough to defend against, and Arsenal appreciates how he performs.

The Gunners have kept him on their shopping list for a long time, and the attacker also wants to play for them.

Crystal Palace is set to table a bid for Emile Smith Rowe as Fulham struggles to acquire him from Arsenal.

This looks likely to be the midfielder’s final season as an Arsenal player, and the Gunners are willing to let him go for the right price.

Several clubs find Smith Rowe an exciting player to add to their squad and are pushing to secure an agreement for his signature.

However, no accepted offer for his signature has yet been made, and Arsenal is not in a hurry.

Days ago, Fulham made an offer worth around £30 million, but the Gunners turned it down.

Arsenal has been linked with a move for Adrien Rabiot after the midfielder left Juventus at the end of last month.

He had been at the Italian club since 2019, and they wanted him to stay, but he did not sign a new deal they offered him, and his contract expired.

He is now one of the biggest free agents on the market and is exploring his options.

A report on Tuttojuve claims he wants to play in the Premier League, and Arsenal is one of the clubs showing interest in the Frenchman.

The report also states that Rabiot is on Tottenham’s shopping list, and both London clubs will do their best to add him to their squad before this transfer window closes.

How can England beat Spain in the Euro 2024 final? Will it be because Bukayo Saka can do a better job of cutting in on his left foot than Lamine Yamal? Or will it be because Pete rattles the Spanish by putting a Peperami in a paella?

Today, Marcus, Luke, Jim and Pete are here to preview the biggest game of our lives. Marcus explains that - this time - he thinks Southgate might just clear the final hurdle. Listen to find out why!

Elsewhere, the Ramblers explain why this should be the end for Didier Deschamps and they ease the pressure on Gareth’s Brave Boys ahead of tonight’s Dutch semi. In the words of Pitbull: don’t stop the party.

 The supercomputer has chimed in on the Euros semi-finals and Luke and John Cross are NOT happy.

Marcus, Luke and Andy preview Spain vs France tonight and try to figure out if Les Bleus can really grind Spain down with this whole 'not scoring goals' thing. We also give some deserved attention for one of the best football narratives in recent times: 38-year-old Jesús Navas being tasked with keeping Kylian Mbappé quiet.

In more confusing events, the BBC double down on their 'Misstiano Penaldo' graphic, much to the fury of Cristiano Ronaldo's legion of fanboys, while French media spy on their own team. Come join us!
