🚨 Arsenal HOLD Talks With Dream Target! Alex Scott Bombshell & Guimaraes Exit Inevitable

Hi, and welcome along to AFTV Transfer Daily, the show that keeps you up to date with players that we link with a summer transfer move to Arsenal.Arsenal players back in training now, the ones that didn't go to the World Cup, and we're just over a week away from Arsenal's first pre -season friendly.That is crazy, isn't it?They play against Girona on the 1st of August.Football doesn't stop.It doesn't stop.

We've just had six weeks of the World Cup.Now we're going straight into this new season.Obviously, none of those players that were at the World Cup will probably feature in that friendly.You're not going to see players like, you know, especially the ones who progressed right down to the end, like Declan Rice and all the English guys, all the Spanish players, none of them are going to be back for at least three to four weeks.And it really is something that's really disturbing, the whole pre -season set up and No real signings coming yet.Can Arsenal get a couple of signings in to help them at the start of this season before all those pre -season games start?

Because every manager will tell you that pre -season is so important.for getting new players in place and up to speed with the team.You saw players like Victor Lloquerres last year didn't really effectively have a proper pre -season with Arsenal take a little while to get going.So getting players in early for those sort of pre -season games is very, very important.And we haven't really made any signings yet.You know, a goalkeeper who's, you know, could be third choice in Meslier, no one else really.

And then, you know, Chelsea rubbing it in yesterday, unveiling Morgan Rodgers, who is the number one target for Arsenal, who's gone to the top.Chelsea.His comments yesterday, they're the biggest club in London.Won't go unchecked by Arsenal fans the next time Chelsea play at Arsenal.But anyway, who are Arsenal going to get?Can they get this deal for Bruno Gimaraes over the line?

Speaking to Arsenal fans, almost universally, more of us are excited about this signing if we can get it done than the Morgan Rodgers one.And that's not sour grapes, because I wanted Morgan Rodgers.He's a quality player.But Bruno Gimaraes.We just look at it and say a midfield with gimmerish rice.I mean, that starts to look very tasty indeed.

But can they get this one over the line?According to reports yesterday, Arsenal have finally opened talks.That was in the Times yesterday.They say Arsenal have finally opened talks.with Newcastle over a deal.They're saying that £75 million is the sort of money that's going to get a deal like this done.

We've seen quotes from Newcastle, well not from Newcastle, but sources around Newcastle saying they want more.But £75 million seems to be around about the figure that could get a deal like this done.Ben Jacobs, the journalist, has actually reported that two bids have previously gone in.A bid for 55 million and a bid for 65 million pounds which were rejected.But could it be 70, 75, 80 million?I think a lot of Arsenal fans would like to see this deal done.

I think a lot of Newcastle fans are fingering like, come on, can we just sort this out?We don't want another Alexander Isak situation.It is starting to look like it's inevitable that he's going to leave Newcastle.Arsenal do seem to be the only team chasing him at the moment.Mind you, we fought that with Morgan Rodgers and Chelsea sneaked in.It's starting to pick up.

look inevitable that he's going to leave.But can Arsenal get this one done?Get it done quickly and get him in before pre -season, even though he, I'm not sure exactly when Brazil went out, but he might not come straight in, but at least he'd have some of the pre -season with Arsenal.Now, the dream target of Mikel Arteta, of Andrea Boerta this summer, is Julian Alvarez but we do know this is a very very difficult deal to do because he inevitably would like to go to Barcelona or maybe even Real Madrid those are his preferred destinations but he is the dream target if Arsenal can get it done caught offside um the publication they're claiming that Andrea Berta has held direct talks with Julian Alvarez that's what they're saying um big news going around today they're also claiming that representatives of Julian Alvarez have been told by Atletico that they would sanction a move to Arsenal this summer.They're saying they will not sanction a move to Barcelona or Real Madrid, but if it's Arsenal, they could sanction a move to Arsenal.Again, this is going to be one that, you know, it's going to run and run, this one, isn't it?

Alvarez as well, you know, he's probably on holiday somewhere right now.He hasn't spoken yet about his future.If a deal for this gets done, it's going to be very expensive.I saw yesterday $170 million being quoted for Julian Alvarez.Well, I'm not being funny here.He's not worth that.

He's a very, very good player.The prices are getting crazy right now.$170 million.Certainly, with the amounts of money that we've seen certain players going for this summer already, he's definitely going to be around about $170 million.million pound marks, but it's going to be crazy whichever way it goes.But let's see.

Let's see if Arsenal are serious about trying to get Julian Alvarez.Now, this one was interesting yesterday.A bit of a bombshell for Bournemouth.Alex Scott, the midfielder, he had a fantastic season last year.Always been a top prospect since they brought him in from Bristol City.Breakout season last year.

Now, Bournemouth don't want to sell him.Arsenal have been interested in him this summer, Chelsea, a whole host of clubs, Man City.But Sammy Mottbill saying yesterday that Alex Scott has rejected a new contract at Bournemouth.Now it's a problem for Bournemouth because his current contract only runs until 2028.If they don't sign a new deal with him, that means after this season only one year left and the valuation starts to drop.Bournemouth, as I said, are refusing to sell, even though he hasn't signed this new contract.

They're still saying not for sale, not for sale, not for sale.But I think that's kind of indicating that he is seeing his future somewhere else and not Bournemouth.And this one could run and run till the end of the transfer window.Chelsea apparently had a bid of £64 million rejected by Bournemouth over the last few days.There's a lot of reports saying that it could take around £80 million to get him.I'd love to hear from you guys.

Alex Scott played well against Arsenal when they played and they beat us at the Emirates.He was instrumental in that.He is a very, very good player.Tottenham fan, by the way.Be interested if Arsenal signed him as a Tottenham fan.But yeah, let me know in the comments, would you take Alex Scott at Arsenal?

But big bombshell there, he's refused to sign a new deal with Bournemouth.Could he be on the move this summer?Could he?be heading to Arsenal?Mikel Arteta, a big admirer of him.Now, we already know that Chelsea, they've done us over in getting Morgan Rodgers.

Could they be about to do it with another player?This time, John Stones, heavily linked with a move to Arsenal.We've known about the problems we've got with William Saliba.And, you know, we're looking at him and thinking, yeah, he could offer great cover.He currently does have no club.Jon Stones' contract at Manchester City has ended.

They didn't renew it.He's a free agent right now, can sign for whoever he wants.According to reports, he is keen on a move to London.But where in London?Because as well as Arsenal, Chelsea have also got him on their shortlist.They are interested in signing him as well.

We know they had a lot of problems at the back last year.Um, so where will he end up?Will he come to Arsenal?Will Arsenal make a move for him as cover?You know, um, very good.We talk about him as cover.

He's a top player.But he's 32 now.We know about his injury problems.But he could offer a good cover for William Saliba.Or could he end up going to Chelsea?Um, and Chelsea do us over again.

Um, gonna have to wait and see how this one turns out.But John Stone's being linked with both Arsenal and Chelsea today.And finally, Rhys Nelson, the forgotten man at Arsenal.Real forgotten man at Arsenal.Spent last season out on loan at Brentford.Now, Sammy Mockbill of the BBC claiming today that reports that Benfica, over there in Portugal, very interested in signing Rhys Nelson.

Of course, Benfica's new manager is now Marco Silva, who had Rhys Nelson when he was at Fulham.And Rhys Nelson was over there on loan, should I say.Could Arsenal sell him to Benfica?Will it be another loan?I mean, he's valued at around about 8 to 10 million pounds.Only 26, Rhys Nelson.

Just hasn't happened for him.He's a talented, talented boy, but it just hasn't happened for him.at Arsenal.His contract's running down, he's only got a year left on his deal at Arsenal.Could he be heading to Benfica this summer?One to watch.

Valencia, another club that are very interested in signing Reece Nelson, so one to watch.So those are the rumours today.Don't forget you won't miss a thing here on AFTV.Any breaking news, we will bring it for you here on AFTV.Thanks for watching, subscribe to the channel and I'll see you tomorrow.
