Arsenal fell short of securing the Premier League title at the end of last season as they finished runners-up behind Manchester City for the second year in succession.
The Gunners will now be hoping that it is third time lucky for them this term and they could use the summer transfer window to bolster their chances of lifting silverware in nine months.
Edu and Mikel Arteta have not been particularly busy in the market in recent months, however, as Riccardo Calafiori is the only new addition to the team from Bologna, alongside David Raya's loan deal from Brentford being made permanent.
The London giants are, though, now reportedly eyeing up a swoop to sign an attacker to improve the manager's options at the top end of the pitch.
Arsenal plotting move for Bundesliga star
According to Football Insider, Edu is plotting a move to sign France international winger Kingsley Coman from Bundesliga side Bayern Munich. The report claims that the North London outfit are hoping to bring in the 28-year-old whiz on a season-long loan to compete with Gabriel Martinelli for a spot on the left flank.
It states that Coman is keen to make the switch to The Emirates to play in the Premier League but would want 'assurances' over his playing time before giving the green light to a transfer.
Bayern's Kingsley Coman
Football Insider adds that the Bavarian side are prepared to sanction an exit for the former Juventus speedster this summer. However, they would want an obligation to make the deal permanent next summer and it remains to be seen whether or not Arsenal are willing to commit to that.
Why Arsenal should sign Kingsley Coman
The £280k-per-week star is an experienced player in Europe who has proven himself over the course of a number of years in the Bundesliga and in the Champions League.
He won Europe's premier competition in the 2019/20 campaign, scoring the winner against his former side Paris Saint-Germain, and has produced 16 goals and 17 assists in 60 outings during his career.
Coman, who was once hailed as "formidable" by former coach Patrick Gonfalone, has racked up 41 goals and 44 assists in 199 Bundesliga appearances for Bayern.

As you can see in the table above, he has been a solid contributor for the German giants over the last two seasons, when selected, with 23 goals and 'big chances' combined in 41 games.
These statistics suggest that the quality is there, both domestically and in the Champions League, for him to come in and provide Arteta with another excellent attacking option to ensure that he has the depth in his squad to compete on all fronts.
The French ace could come in and offer competition for Martinelli, who produced six goals and four assists in 35 Premier League matches last season, whilst also being an experienced mentor for the Brazil international to learn from over the coming months.

حسم نادي الأهلي صفقتين حتى الآن بشكل رسمي بضم الثنائي نيج جراديشار ومصطفى العش من أجل تدعيم صفوف الفريق الأول لكرة القدم في الميركاتو الشتوي الحالي.
اللاعبان متواجدان في قائمة مباراة بيراميدز والتي تقام مساء اليوم، الأحد، في تمام الساعة السابعة مساءً بتوقيت “القاهرة” في إطار مباريات الجولة العاشرة من بطولة الدوري المصري.
ولكن لا تزال هناك أنباء عن رغبة الأهلي في ضم المزيد من الصفقات حتى يعود الفريق إلى الطريق الصحيح بعد فترة من الأداء المتذبذب والنتائج السيئة.
ومن ضمن المراكز التي يرغب الأهلي في تعزيزها الجناح، لذلك هناك تقارير قوية عن اهتمام الأهلي بضم لاعب سيرفيت المنافس في الدوري السويسري، ديريك كوتيسا.

ويكشف btolat.com من خلال مصادره الخاصة وضع اللاعب مع ناديه السويسري في الوقت الحالي خاصة وأن عقده ينتهي في 30 يونيو المقبل.
وما علمناه أن اللاعب لا يمانع الرحيل عن سيرفيت في الميركاتو الشتوي الحالي لكن هناك عقبتين الأولى تتمثل في طموح النادي السويسري في الحصول على مبلغ قد يصل إلى 2 مليون يورو في آخر 6 أشهر.
والعقبة الثانية هي أن اللاعب لديه عروض من فرنسا، إسبانيا وألمانيا ولكن جميعها لا ترتقي لطموحات سيرفيت وهو ما يضع الأخير في موقف صعب لأنه لا يستطيع الاستفادة برحيل كوتيسا في الوقت الحالي والحصول على مقابل مادي.
طلبات سيرفيت تجعل اللاعب يفكر في الاستمرار حتى نهاية الموسم الحالي ثم يبدأ في البحث عن نادٍ جديد يرحل إليه بالمجان.
أما عن اهتمام الأهلي، فاللاعب لم يصل إليه أي عروض رسمية من جانب النادي حتى يتم دراستها في الوقت الحالي سواء من جانبه أو من وكيله.

Senior pair could feature in one white-ball game between them this summer
Matt Roller05-Jul-2021
Ben Stokes celebrates a wicket with Jason Roy and Jos Buttler•Getty Images
Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes could play a single white-ball international between them this summer, after Eoin Morgan confirmed that their involvement in this month’s T20I series against Pakistan is in doubt.Buttler played the first T20I of England’s home summer, making 68 not out against Sri Lanka, but has missed the following five limited-overs internationals with a calf tear that has also ruled him out of this week’s ODI series against Pakistan, which starts in Cardiff on Thursday.Stokes, meanwhile, missed the whole of Sri Lanka’s tour while recovering from the finger injury he sustained in Rajasthan Royals’ opening IPL fixture, and while he has been playing county cricket over the past two weeks, England are wary of rushing him back with an eye on upcoming Test series against India and Australia, as well as the T20 World Cup.”There’s always a fine balance between looking at the here-and-now and planning towards the T20 World Cup, also bearing in mind that those two guys are all-format players so they will probably go Down Under and play in the Ashes as well,” Morgan said following Sunday’s no-result against Sri Lanka. “Trying to balance that along with trying to get the best squad out can be difficult at times, but I think at the moment we’re spoiled for choice.”Stokes has been named in Durham’s County Championship side for the first time in three years in this week’s fixture against Warwickshire at Edgbaston, and has played six times in the Vitality Blast over the past two weeks – though his comeback was accelerated by a second-team player testing positive for Covid-19, creating an availability crisis as several squad members were forced to self-isolate.But Morgan insisted the players would not be rushed back at the risk of further damage, and that the Pakistan series was not a priority in comparison to events later in the year. “The last thing we want to do is rush somebody back and jump with the level of intensity from county cricket to international when there isn’t necessarily a need,” Morgan said. “We are happy for Ben to progress as he sees fit, and obviously have one eye on the Test series as well.Related

A not-so-Super spectacle, but allure of World Cup Super League dictates ruthless England approach
“From what I’m hearing, calves can be quite temperamental – it just depends on how he [Buttler] feels. In a similar instance to Ben, the priority wouldn’t be to get him back as soon as possible if there’s a 50-50 chance. I know he progressed his running a couple of days ago and does feel good, but things can change.”The squad for the T20I series is due to be named between the second and third ODIs, and if both players miss out it will mean minimal involvement with the limited-overs sides this summer. They are both likely to return in time to play the opening rounds of the Hundred before the start of the India series, at Trent Bridge on August 4.Morgan also explained the decision not to rotate players in Sunday’s third ODI, with Tom Banton and George Garton both left to run the drinks after being pulled out of the Blast, and said that Sam Billings and Moeen Ali would have been promoted up the order to get time in the middle ahead of Pakistan’s tour, but for the rain’s intervention.”When we look at players [and] when Tom has been in the side before, we’ve earmarked a number of games throughout the series that he would play. We did that in New Zealand when he played [in late 2019] and we did it last year. It’s very rare that we will put somebody in for a one-off game.”The reason behind that is that it doesn’t hold a lot of context, unless it’s tied in with a string of games. When you identify a player or a talent to come into a squad, I believe you should always invest in that talent and think long-term so therefore identify down the line after he’s been around the side for a little period of time and becomes comfortable, to give him a number of opportunities and not just one.”For years I’ve watched guys come in and out of sides and being given one-off games, and whether it’s [through] opportunity or form, not given many after that. It’s not a way that you want to treat a good asset, or an asset for the future.”We have given guys games in this series that haven’t played in the T20 series, and that’s a conscious effort to get games under guys’ belts. With the limited opportunity, you want guys to be exposed as much as possible but that didn’t necessarily happen throughout both series. That aside, when you consider the threat that Sri Lanka are and their ability – they beat us in the World Cup and have a lot of capabilities and talent – to beat them the way that we did, that’s quite a big positive.”
The Indian captain hurt himself while fielding during England’s chase

Virat Kohli hurt his upper quad during England’s chase•BCCI
India captain Virat Kohli says he “should be fine” for the final T20I after he “aggravated” an upper quad (thigh) muscle while fielding during England’s chase in the fourth T20I on Thursday.Kohli hurt himself during the 15th over as he sprinted in from deep midwicket and threw off-balance in an unsuccessful attempt to stop a second run. He went off the field after that and watched the rest of the game from the dugout and was even seen limping during the closing stages of the match.”I ran for a ball, I dived and I threw it, so I was probably not in the best position,” Kohli told host broadcaster Star Sports at the post-match presentation. “I just moved out to the outfield, earlier I was fielding in the inner ring. And the temperature drops pretty quickly, so your body tends to get stiff. So I just aggravated my upper quad a little bit and I didn’t want to make it into a niggle or an injury.”It’s nothing serious. I should be fine by the day after tomorrow because we have the game in the evening. So probably took a smarter decision to come off and not sprint five-six more times and probably do it more because we have an important game coming up.”In Kohli’s absence, Rohit Sharma took over the reins as the Indian bowlers closed out the game to level the series 2-2. The decider will be played on Saturday.
The Premier League is finally back, and after a long summer of international football and transfer rumours flying here, there, and everywhere, Tottenham Hotspur look ready to fight for a place in the top four.
Ange Postecoglou led his side to a respectable fifth-placed finish in his first campaign at the club, but with that experience under his belt and a plethora of new signings added to the squad, Champions League football has to be the goal.
Speaking of signings, there is certainly an argument to be made that, as things stand, the Lilywhites have had one of the best summers in the league. With Archie Gray and Yan Min-Hyeok secured for the future and Dominic Solanke signed for the here and now, there is much to be excited about in N17.
However, even though the former Bournemouth ace cost the North Londoners a whopping £65m last week, they are still making moves in the market, most notably with the capture of Burnley ace Wilson Odobert.
The young winger is an incredibly exciting addition to the team, and with the window open for another two weeks, Daniel Levy and Co could really blow the roof off by bringing in another vastly experienced attacker who'd be a dream teammate for the Frenchman.
Odobert's surprise move to Spurs
The biggest drawback of the modern football landscape is that it's increasingly rare for clubs to pull off surprising transfer deals. Still, it would be fair to say that very few people, if anyone, expected Tottenham to complete the signing of Burnley star Odobert yesterday.
Troyes' Wilson Odobert in action
Somehow, the deal had remained off everyone's radar, and yet within a few hours of the first rumours, the BBC had confirmed the Frenchman's £25m move to North London.
Now, that might seem like quite a lot of money for a 19-year-old because, well, it is, but based on his performances for the Clarets last season and the potential so many believe him to have, it may well end up looking like a bargain in the years to come.
For example, despite being so young, he scored three goals and provided three assists in 29 Premier League appearances last season, meaning that he averaged a goal involvement every 4.83 games for a relegation candidate in the toughest league in the world – talk about promising.
Moreover, according to FBref, which compares players in similar positions across Europe's top five leagues, the "extraordinary" talent, as dubbed by journalist Andrés Onrubia Ramos, sat in the top 3% of forwards for progressive carries and successful take-ons per 90.
In all, Odobert looks like a brilliant signing for Spurs, although to get even more out of him, the club could now go after a more experienced striker they've been linked with all summer.
Why Toney would be great for Odobert
Yes, the potential target in question is none other than Brentford's wantaway striker Ivan Toney, who has been touted for a move to N17 for months.
Now, some of you may be wondering why the club would want to sign another striker so soon after splashing the cash on Solanke, and frankly, that's a good question, but according to reports earlier this week, that is something they might do, even though he's valued at £60m.
Perhaps it's an admission that Richarlison isn't a clinical enough player to be the club's backup striker when they want to be seriously challenging in all competitions this year, or it may just be a thought process that you can never have too many goalscorers in a team.
Whatever the reason, signing the Bees ace would mean adding some serious quality to the squad, and given his experience in the top flight, he'd be a dream signing for Odobert.
Just imagine if the former Burnley ace was tasked with starting alongside the 28-year-old "monster", as Thomas Frank dubbed him, he would surely feel more confident that whatever chances he created would be put away.

He wouldn't be too far off the mark either, as even when you include last season, which was massively disrupted by his eight-month ban from all footballing activities, the Northampton-born star has racked up a seriously impressive haul of 47 Premier League goal involvements in 83 appearances for Brentford, equating to one every 1.76 games.
Ultimately, while it would be a surprise, adding Toney to the club's rapidly improving attack would be a seriously ambitious move, and his knowhow and experience could prove to be incredibly beneficial for Odobert's development – although they might want to hold out for a lower price for a bit longer.

O Corinthians foi eliminado na tarde deste sábado daCopa Brasil WLegends de Futebol Master. A queda na competição de veteranos foi confirmada após o time alvinegro ser derrotado por 2 a 1 para o Bahia, na Arena Barueri, pela segunda rodada da fase de grupos do torneio, do qual o Palmeiras acabou também dando adeus após este resultado.

No confronto com os corintianos, o Bahia saiu na frente com um gol de Marcelo Ramos no primeiro tempo e depois desperdiçou outras oportunidades de ampliar o placar nesta metade inicial do duelo.
Na etapa final, o Timão contou com a entrada de Elivelton em campo e conseguiu aumentar o seu volume ofensivo. E acabou chegando ao empate ao contar com um gol contra de Valdomiro.
Como um empate eliminaria os dois times da competição, as duas equipes foram para o tudo ou nada nos últimos 15 minutos e o Bahia garantiu a sua vitória por meio de um gol de pênalti, cometido por Anderson Polga em Zé Carlos. Robert partiu para fazer a cobrança e acertou o canto do goleiro Gléguer, que caiu para o outro lado.
O resultado eliminou o Corinthians e por tabela o Palmeiras, que avançaria às quartas de final como líder do Grupo E em caso de empate entre Timão e Bahia. Horas mais cedo, o Verdão empatou por 1 a 1 com o Vitória, que acabou se classificando para a próxima fase do torneio, como líder do Grupo F, no qual anteriormente já havia conquistado um triunfo sobre o arquirrival Bahia.
O Tricolor de Aço, por sua vez, se classificou como líder do Grupo E ao derrotar o Corinthians, que teve como um dos seus ex-jogadores de destaque em campo Edílson Capetinha, atacante que defendeu o clube entre 1997 e 2000.
Com os resultados do dia, ficou definido que o Bahia terá pela frente nas quartas de final o vencedor do Grupo G, que conta com Grêmio e Goiás na briga por uma vaga. Já o Vitória vai encarar o líder da Chave H, posto que será disputado entre Internacional e Coritiba.
As quartas de final da Copa Brasil WLegends de Futebol Master contam com dois duelos já definidos: Botafogo x Vasco e Cruzeiro x Santos.

Every year, the best player in the land is crowned by the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA). That accolade is one of a number of awards handed out at the annual ceremony, with others including Young Player of the Year, Fans' Player of the Year and its women's equivalents. There is also a Team of the Year for each league.
Typically held before the end of the current season, this year's awards ceremony is breaking tradition by taking place in mid-August after the start of the following campaign – presumably to avoid clashing with players' well-earned summer breaks.
The PFA recently announced the nominees for this year's two main awards: the Players' Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year. Unsurprisingly, champions Manchester City dominate the nominees, with three players up for the main award.

Only one can come away with the trophy, which was won by Erling Haaland last term. But that leaves plenty empty-handed, and some of English football's greats have never managed to be voted as the best player among their peers.
Here, we've taken a look at 11 players who perhaps deserved to win the award at some point in their careers, focusing on their best spells in the Premier League where they may have been overlooked.
Every winner of the PFA Player of the Year award since 2000
Some of the Premier League’s greats have won the coveted award over the years – here’s every winner since the millennium following Phil Foden’s win.
ByLuke Randall Aug 20, 2024 11 Nemanja Vidic Manchester United
A stalwart of the Manchester United teams that – until last season – recorded the joint-longest run of consecutive Premier League titles, Nemanja Vidic is certainly worthy of a place in the annals of English football.
He struck up a fine partnership with Rio Ferdinand in the Red Devils backline in one of their most dominant eras, though he was somewhat upstaged by the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, who both took the PFA award at the height of Vidic's successes.
The Serbian was at least named the Premier League's Player of the Season in 2009 and 2011, though it seems his fellow players didn't see him in quite the same light.
10 Robert Pires Arsenal
One of Arsene Wenger's most defining signings at Arsenal, Robert Pires was an integral part of their dominance in the early 2000s, which garnered two league titles and three FA Cups.
The 2001/02 season was perhaps the Frenchman's finest campaign, as despite being struck by injury, which saw him miss the subsequent World Cup, Pires was a vital part of the Gunners' double-winning side, with the team bowing down to him as he held the Premier League title aloft at Highbury.
However, it was Ruud van Nistelrooy who won the players' accolade that season following a dazzling first campaign at Manchester United. Perhaps with a full season under his belt, Pires could have given the Dutch striker a run for his money.
9 Peter Schmeichel Manchester United
Goalkeepers often end up underappreciated, so it is no surprise that Pat Jennings and Peter Shilton are the only 'keepers to receive the PFA Player of the Year award – the last of those coming in 1978.
However, it is difficult to envisage Manchester United's near-monopoly on the Premier League without Peter Schmeichel's performances. Unfortunately for the Dane, he was often behind Eric Cantona or Ryan Giggs in terms of being the best United player, never mind in all of English football.
There are only a few goalies who could come close to emulating Schmeichel's stature – Petr Cech may even feel hard done by that he was never recognised in this way – and it does feel unjust that Schmeichel was often overlooked when it came to individual gongs.
8 Andy Cole Newcastle United & Manchester United
Andy Cole was a goal machine, and his record of 34 goals in a Premier League season (albeit in a 42-game campaign) was only recently overtaken by Erling Haaland.
Despite this, Cole's superb haul in 1993/94 for Newcastle United was overshadowed by Eric Cantona following his switch to Old Trafford. Cole surely would have been a shoo-in any other year, or indeed if he had been part of a title-winning side at St James' Park.
Unfortunately, the Magpies were 15 points off the pace and Cole never reached those heights again, as even during his stint as the star striker at Old Trafford, he was never quite seen as the top dog.
PFA Awards 2024: The favourites to win Young Player of the Year award
FFC takes a look at the six players in the running to win the PFA Young Player of the Year award for the 2023/24 season.
ByLuke Randall Aug 19, 2024 7 Michael Owen Liverpool
There was certainly a time when Michael Owen was one of the hottest properties on the planet – he did win the 2001 Ballon d'Or, after all.
Only three times did the PFA Players' Player of the Year award not go to a league winner during his seven full seasons at Liverpool, after which injuries had taken away his pace and elite goalscoring touch.
That's not to say he never deserved such recognition at Liverpool, and he was named as the Premier League's best player as an 18-year-old in 1997/98 – the same year he took home the Young Player award.
6 Sadio Mane Liverpool
Former Liverpool forward Sadio Mane
There's no doubting Sadio Mane's quality as a Premier League great, and his time at Liverpool brought about a ton of goals, with the trophies to match.
Scoring 120 goals for the Reds alone (he also grabbed 25 in 75 appearances for Southampton), Mane's finest hours at Anfield came as part of an infamous attacking trio alongside Roberto Firmino and two-time PFA Players' Player of the Year Mohamed Salah.
Salah's achievements perhaps prevented Mane from standing out on his own, though he did rank above the Egyptian in the final rankings of the 2022 Ballon d'Or.
5 David Silva Manchester City
David Silva lit up the Premier League for a decade during a trophy-laden spell at Manchester City. While he was never among the top scorers, he was often creator-in-chief at the Etihad Stadium, notching 93 assists across ten seasons.
He was the lead assist-maker in 2011/12 when City were crowned champions for the first time, while he would add three more titles before returning to Spain in 2020.
Perhaps another victim of being surrounded by too much greatness for his talent to get the recognition it deserved, there can be few players more defining than Silva when it came to installing City's place among England's elite sides.
4 Yaya Toure Manchester City
Yaya Toure joined Manchester City in the same summer as Silva, and while his stay wasn't as long (in fact, it fizzled out following Pep Guardiola's arrival), there was a period when the Ivorian was completely unplayable.
2013/14 saw City tussle with Liverpool for the Premier League title, and with 20 goals from midfield, there were few better players in the division than Toure. His sheer power and clinical finishing were on show all season, and while the campaign ended with team silverware, he was not handed the individual awards he surely deserved.
Luis Suarez was the recipient of the main prizes as he grabbed a then-record 31 goals for runners-up Liverpool, but overlooking Toure was surely a mistake.
3 Sergio Aguero Manchester City
Given Manchester City's dominance in the 2010s, it is perhaps a surprise that Sergio Aguero was never a Players' Player award-winner.
As we have seen with plenty of the players on this list, timing can be a huge downfall when it comes to individual award aspirations, and unfortunately for the Argentinian, his sole Golden Boot campaign came in 2014/15, when Eden Hazard and co. hauled Chelsea to the Premier League title.
Aguero hit 20-plus for five successive league seasons, but arguably didn't ever do quite enough to be considered the best in the land. However, for a player of his quality, it's a shame things never went his way as far as the PFA award is concerned.
2 Harry Kane Tottenham Hotspur
We had to double-check this one ourselves, but no – Harry Kane, Tottenham Hotspur's record goalscorer, England captain and (some would say) media darling, was never voted as the best player by his peers.
Kane grabbed three Golden Boots during his time at Spurs – albeit the first during Leicester's title-winning season – but always had someone in his way, whether it was N'Golo Kante in 2016/17 or Kevin De Bruyne in 2020/21.
It seems unusual that someone can have such an effect on their club without gaining the main players' award – you could easily argue Kane was just as influential as double POTY winner Gareth Bale at Spurs, if not more, especially considering their brief flirtations with the title.
Every Premier League Golden Boot winner
Some of the Premier League’s greatest goalscorers have won the Golden Boot – here’s every player to earn the coveted prize.
