Rice and Caicedo double deal
Arsenal could make a double swoop in the midfield department this summer for both Declan Rice and Moises Caicedo, amid links for the pair. The Telegraph reports that talks are still ongoing between the Gunners and West Ham for the former, with two bids rejected so far.
As for the latter, there had been claims that the north London outfit dropped their interest in the Brighton star, as the two deals would cost too much combined. However, with the possibility of an exit for Thomas Partey, the search for a new deeper midfielder has opened up the possibility of a move for Caicedo once again, though Arsenal will have to battle rivals Chelsea for his signature.
Timber deal hint
Arsenal star Jakub Kiwior has hinted at a deal for Ajax star Jurrien Timber this summer in an interview with Polish outlet Meczyki. When asked about a potential signing of the Dutch defender, the January signing replied: "I'm glad. Let the best players play at Arsenal. Let's win trophies together."
