All happening at Arsenal FC

Arsenal's January transfer window heats up as the club eyes Bayern Munich's young forward, Mathys Tel, amid recent offensive struggles. The 19-year-old Frenchman seeks more playing time, making Arsenal a potential destination. However, negotiations could be complex, with Bayern open to a permanent transfer for the right offer.

In addition to Tel, Arsenal's pursuit of Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins faces a roadblock. Villa manager Unai Emery is determined to retain the 29-year-old forward, despite Arsenal's £60 million bid. With Villa's firm stance and the transfer window closing soon, Arsenal may need to explore alternative targets.

Meanwhile, Arsenal's recent 2-1 victory over Girona in the Champions League highlighted both emerging talent and challenges. Seventeen-year-old Ethan Nwaneri's outstanding performance secured the win, while goalkeeper concerns loom with David Raya's injury. As Arsenal prepares to host Manchester City, the potential absence of key players adds to their challenges in maintaining a competitive edge.
