Kai Havertz injury — Arsenal lose German for undisclosed period, seek forward in transfer market

Arsenal is back into the transfer market for forward help after versatile German striker Kai Havertz suffered a knee injury, according to David Ornstein. The injury to Havertz, 26, leaves the Gunners with just one healthy center forward — new signing Viktor Gyokeres — as Gabriel Jesus has yet to return from last season's ACL injury. Havertz did not train on Wednesday and Ornstein said there's no set duration for the player's absence. Failing to account for Havertz's midseason injury last season is seen by many as a big reason for their stumble in the Premier League title race. Havertz scored nine times with three assists in 23 appearances last season and made 30 starts in each of his the previous two Premier League seasons. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta had planned to use Havertz as a second striker but has also deployed the valuable German in the midfield and as a winger. Kai Havertz injury — Who could the Gunners sign in transfer market? The length of absence will dictate the investment required to deputize for Havertz, of course, and a lot of center forwards have already moved in the market. Could Yoane Wissa be an option? Brentford are asking $80 million for the 28-year-old scorer, and Wissa is has been sitting out from Bees camp as Newcastle have not raised their bid from $54 million. The Gunners have made moves with Chelsea in the past, and the Blues are reportedly looking to offload Nicolas Jackson and Christopher Nkunku, while Manchester United hope to sell Rasmus Hojlund. But would Arsenal be desperate enough to help their Big Six rivals out of jams? As for further long shots, Ollie Watkins is known as a long-time Arsenal fan, but would surely be looking for a more crucial role in an attack than Gyokeres' No. 2. Adding Alexander Isak would be bonkers given the outlay for Gyokeres as a clear No. 1 striker, but we suppose there's a non-zero chance the Gunners could approach Newcastle. More to come...

Deal reached, Amine Adli set to join Bournemouth for €29 million

Moroccan star's imminent departure after four seasons in the Bundesliga. Amine Adli / Bayer Leverkusen Amine Adli is on the verge of experiencing the Premier League. The Moroccan attacking midfielder is leaving Bayer Leverkusen to join AFC Bournemouth in a transfer valued between €29 and €30 million. The Moroccan international is closer than ever to starting a new chapter in his career after four successful seasons in Germany. Bayer Leverkusen and Bournemouth have reached an agreement for Amine Adli, who will undergo his medical in the coming hours. The Cherries will pay an initial fee of €21 million plus €9 million in add-ons, with some bonuses considered difficult to achieve by observers. The English club outpaced the competition to secure the services of the Moroccan international. Marseille and Sunderland had also shown interest in the Toulouse-born player, but the Cherries managed to convince him with their sporting project. Bayer Leverkusen has given the green light for Adli to complete his medical examination.

Newcastle ready to strike mega Liverpool Alexander Isak agreement

Newcastle are ready to agree to a mega sale of Alexander Isak according to one report but it all depends on one condition. Things have reached a boiling point between the two parties. Both Newcastle and Isak released statements of their own on Tuesday night in which they contradict each other. 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! Isak claims he had an agreement with Newcastle which they didn't adhere to. Newcastle claim there was no agreement of any kind in place. It's a bit of he said, she said at the moment. We probably will never find out the truth. But while Newcastle remain open to paving a way back for Isak into the first team, the Swede remains adamant he wants a change and made that clear in his statement. Ultimately, who will prevail remains to be seen. One thing is certain, even in Newcastle's statement, a departure from the club has not been ruled out. Newcastle claimed that certain 'conditions' had to be met, without alluding to what this is in order for Isak to be sold. These haven't been met so far but they could be soon. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range According to Keith Downie, a reporter for Sky Sports, speaking on the Good Morning Transfers show, Newcastle could be ready to agree a mega transfer for Isak. "I think if they were to land [Yoane] Wissa in the next few days and I'm expecting Newcastle to come in with a higher bid to Brentford. If they were to land Wissa, and Liverpool came to the table and offered a £130m or a £135m would be my reading into the situation then I think Newcastle might have a little decision to make," Downie said. So it feels like there is a deal to be had. Officially, Newcastle's asking price may be £150m but behind the scenes if Downie is to be believed they are ready to do a deal at a lower price. Let's not get it twisted. £150m is still a lot of money to pay for one player. It's a mega deal at the end of the day. It will shatter the British transfer record. But Liverpool have wanted to sign Isak for ages. He's been their man from the beginning of the summer. If they really want him, why not pay the £25m extra from your initial £110m bid in order to get the transfer over the line? Obviously, the condition is that Newcastle need to sign Wissa first. At this moment in time that hasn't happened yet. If it does, the doors will swing ajar for Liverpool to strike an agreement. The situation is still murky and it's hard to predict how this one ends. But Newcastle haven't completely ruled out the possibility of Isak leaving. On the other hand, the Swede has made it very clear he doesn't want to play for the Magpies again. At this point surely Newcastle are better off selling Isak and moving on from this situation.
