Last week, links to Bruno Guimaraes came back in full swing, with claims that behind-the-scenes talks had taken place to gauge the possibility of a deal being struck for him to join Arsenal.
On Sunday, Chronicle Live's Lee Ryder spoke of what would be needed to get this deal done. He admits, "Newcastle have made it clear they only want to sell on their terms." And those terms are steep. Talks suggest it would take £80 million or more to convince the Magpies to sell.
Meanwhile, Fabrice Hawkins the French Journalist claims Lille have now made their own terms clear regarding a potential sale of Arsenal target Ayyoub Bouaddi. He says:
"Lille would prefer a sale with a one-year loan included, with club president Olivier Letang demanding between €80m-€100m."
Elsewhere, Ben White could be allowed to leave this summer. Club insider The Hand Of Arsenal says inquiries have come in over his availability, though none have yet progressed beyond that stage as he continues working his way back to full fitness.
Should an offer that excites White, however, come through, the club will let him go. Whether that opens the door for a Tino Livramento swoop, we will have to wait and see.
Interestingly, alongside that White update, Hand of Arsenal also flagged that William Saliba, not 100 per cent, is being closely monitored.
When asked wether the club feel he needs specialised treatment or even surgery for his back issue (!) he said "Arsenal have also made checks on numerous centre-backs, including Maxence Lacroix, Ezri Konsa and others."
If this comes about then there's something serious with Saliba.
