ARSENAL target James Maddison has had a £40million price tag slapped on him by current club Leicester – but the Gunners will face stiff competition for his signature through Newcastle.

Meanwhile, David Moyes has admitted that there is a 'good' chance his influential skipper Declan Rice will leave West Ham this summer in a huge boost to Arsenal.

And the Gunners received more good news as Ilkay Gundogan's agent revealed that the FA Cup final hero putting pen to paper on a new Manchester City contract is false.

    Arsenal plan Rice offer after final

    Rumours are circulating that Arsenal will make a formal offer for West Ham star Declan Rice after the Europa Conference League final.

    It is claimed that The Gunners have already agreed personal terms with the player and the fee with West Ham is the only hurdle to overcome.

    Arsenal starlet returning after loan spell

    Marcelo Flores will be heading back to The Emirates after a very disappointing loan spell in Spain.

    Reports from France are suggesting that PSG are keen on signing Gabriel Magalhaes.

    The centre-back has impressed in Arsenal's successful season but it is thought the player wants to stay at The Emirates.

    Ex-England star urges Rice to resist Arsenal

    David James has told West Ham star Declan Rice that her should turn down the advances of Arsenal this summer.

    The former West Ham goalkeeper has said that he hopes his old side can win the Europa Conference League final and talk the midfielder into staying.

    James said "You look at Mark Noble and everything he achieved at West Ham, there would have been plenty of teams who wanted him at his peak, but he stayed there to the end and secured legendary status. Declan Rice has the rare chance to do that, same as Harry Kane at Tottenham."

    Arsenal plan swoop for relegated star

    Mikel Arteta is keen on bringing James Maddison to The Emirates this summer.

    The England international only has one-year left on his Foxes contract and with the side relegated from the Premier League this season, is very unlikely to feature for them next season.

    It is thought that Leicester want in the region of £40m for the midfielder, a figure that should work well with the budget at the club's disposal.

    Keown unfazed by Tottenham appointment

    Ex-Arsenal defender, Martin Keown, has said that he is not worried about the appointment of Ange Postecoglou at their North London rivals.

    He said that when Antonio Conte joined them, he was concerned that the serial-winner may bring silverware to Spurs.

    The appointment of the ex-Celtic manager has not struck the same fear into Keown however.

    Gunners linked with Hazard rebirth

    Arsenal have once again been linked with a move for Real Madrid’s Eden Hazard.

    With the midfielder seemingly set to leave the Bernabau this summer, The Gunners have been talked about as a potential destination.

    Having played for Chelsea for so long, it is difficult seeing the player willing to go to one of their rivals but the same would have been said about Mauricio Pochettino not so long ago.

    Whether Arteta feels the 32-year-old can add the required quality to the squad remains to be seen.

    Caicedo poses questions on Gunners' position

    Arsenal have been long-term admirers of Moises Caicedo, having lodged a bid for him earlier in the season.

    While Brighton turned down the offer, despite the player having already seemingly said his goodbyes on social media, his season took an unexpected turn.

    Due to the needs of The Seagulls, Caicedo had to slot in as right back for a large part of the season, starring in the emphatic win at The Emirates.

    This poses the question as to where Mikel Arteta sees him fitting in at the club should they sign him.
