BREAKING NEWS: Arsenal has turned down a substantial £50 million bid for an underperforming player. Meanwhile, Arteta has successfully persuaded a £95 million striker to leave discussions with Barcelona, Chelsea, and Man City to sign with Arsenal.

Arsenal have recently rejected a new €27 million bid from Marseille for their striker Eddie Nketiah, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

The Gunners have already sold Emile Smith Rowe to London rivals Fulham, and Nketiah could be the next player to leave the club. Despite agreeing on personal terms with Marseille, Arsenal are not willing to let him go easily.

Marseille’s second bid of €27 million was promptly turned down by Arsenal. Manager Mikel Arteta holds Nketiah in high regard, and the club’s management is expected to demand at least €35 million to consider selling him.

Marseille, known as Les Phoceens, are likely to return with an improved offer to meet Arsenal’s valuation. The Ligue 1 club has a history of signing prominent Premier League players, particularly since Roberto De Zerbi became their manager.

De Zerbi, who previously managed Brighton & Hove Albion, is familiar with Nketiah and had attempted to sign him for Brighton.

As the summer transfer window progresses, Arsenal have been advised to make another signing before the deadline.

Former defender William Gallas has suggested that Arsenal should target Manchester City striker Julian Alvarez. Gallas believes that Alvarez, a world champion, would elevate the team to the next level.

Arsenal have been linked with a move for the Argentine forward this summer. The club has strengthened their defense by signing Italian defender Riccardo Calafiori from Bologna and are now looking to enhance their attacking options for the new season.

Gallas, in a statement via Genting Casino, asserted that Alvarez would be an excellent addition to Arsenal. Alvarez has an impressive track record, having won the World Cup, Copa America, two Premier League titles, and the Champions League.

Securing Alvarez, who has had limited playing time at Manchester City, would be a significant boost for Arsenal as they aim to compete at the highest level.
