There are alot of clubs very interested in a possible deal for Martinelli so the news that he has agreed a new deal is massive – it means that serious money will need to be paid for him to leave

We are sure that he is one of the players that will develop into a world class star – so this is a great bit of business from that Arsenal board.

Arteta does not want to lose some of his best talents and Martinelli is certainly a member of the squad that is a star he wants.

There were some big clubs interested – but now Martinelli can look forward to his future at the Emirates and a nice big wage to go along with it

Caicedo message sent –

Arsenal have been told that the possible signing of Brighton star Moises Caicedo would be really good for the club.

The January transfer window has been open for a while now and Arsenal have started doing their transfer business – with defender Jakub Kiwior and attacker Leandro Trossard joining the club.

However – that has not stopped the speculation and the rumours that Arsenal are very much interested in a deal for the impressive Caicedo – and have even reportedly made their moves to get a deal done.

According to The Times – the Gunners have made an offer of £50 million for the powerful midfielder – but have now been told that they must pay closer to £100 million if they wish to sign the Brighton star.

Now – amid all the speculation – Former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell has opened up and claimed that the Brighton powerhouse would be a very good signing for the Gunners.

He told the Transfer Show: “I feel signing Moises Caicedo would be really good for Arsenal . He’s a young player who is very talented and knows the Premier League.

“I feel it’s one of the last spots in this Arsenal squad that fans and people are worried about if Thomas Partey got injured so they’re trying to address that situation.

“It’s going to be a tough run-in with Manchester City for the title but if they get the correct pieces in, they’ll give themselves a good chance.

“It was a clever initial bid but it’s difficult for Brighton to sell now.”

Caicedo is a player that is ready to make that next step in his career – play for one of the big clubs – but the money that is being talked about is crazy.

Arsenal should not pay so much for a man that still has alot to prove in the game and honestly if they do – it could be a massive mistake.

Not because Caicedo is a bad player – but because he is simply not worth £100 million, and Brighton should not be demanding such a fee.

Rice claim made – 

Arsenal are still understood to be the frontrunners for West Ham star Declan Rice after he reportedly told them he would make a move to the Emirates at the end of the season.

Arsenal hope this season’s Premier League title charge can provide a huge boost to their summer plans with Partey enjoying a superb campaign in the heart of midfield.

He has looked every inch the player that was so brilliant in La Liga with Atletico Madrid – with his power in that Arsenal side a big reason why the Gunners are so good this season.

While Arsenal are said to be favorites to sign West Ham star Rice as a possible cover for Thomas Partey – and According to El Nacional, the England international has told the North Londoners he will join them at the end of the season.

Chelsea and possibly Manchester United as well as Manchester City could also be interested in the £80million-ratd star. However amid the speculation – legend Ray Parlour is not convinced that the Gunners need him:

‘Yeah absolutely he’s [Rice] a top player but [Thomas] Partey has been brilliant in the midfield I mean, look, if you get Declan Rice does he play in front of Partey at the moment?’ Parlour told Net Bet Sports Betting.

‘You know it’s a situation where it’s a big decision the manager has to make, but you need big players in your team throughout the season.

‘If you’re going for the Champions League and you playing in the league, FA Cup, there are so many games, so you need to rotate your squad at times, but Partey has been very important for Arsenal .

‘Over the years, he has been injured on occasions and he’s missed quite big chunks of the season.

‘Look as I said before we need a midfielder and if Declan Rice wants to stay in London look I’m sure Chelsea will be straight in as well.

‘There have been rumours that he was always gonna go to Chelsea, I’m sure every single team in the Premier League and around the world will be looking at Declan Rice, and say “well we wouldn’t mind having him”.

‘But I hope he stays in the Premier League.’
