There will be dressing-room access, a half-time player interview or a chat with a substituted player from next season.

Arsenal's surprise bid for Valencia star Christian Mosquera REJECTED - as Spanish giants reveal price the Gunners must pay for defender
Arsenal 's bid for Valencia defender Christian Mosquera has been rejected by the LaLiga side as they have set their asking price for the Spanish youngster. The Gunners have entered talks for Mosquera, 20, as they look to find suitable cover for first-choice options William Saliba and Gabriel. While Mikel Arteta 's go-to pair have become one of the Premier League 's strongest defensive partnerships in recent seasons, Arsenal appear intent on strengthening their back-line depth. Such a move by Arsenal may have been prompted by the hamstring injury Gabriel suffered in April, along with a recognition that adding another high-calibre centre-back would give them the chance to occasionally rotate Saliba. The Frenchman, 24, started 35 Premier League matches last season having played every league game in 2023-24. Arteta and sporting director Andrea Berta have identified Mosquera as a player they would like to sign this summer but have so far fallen short of Valencia's valuation of the player. The Spanish side are asking the north London side to pay his £17million (€20 million) release clause and have turned down an initial offer that fell short of that valuation according to Goal. Arsenal have been busy in their search for new recruits as they look to land a first Premier League title since 2004 off the back of three successive second-placed finishes under Arteta. With veteran midfielder Jorginho having left the club on a free transfer for Flamengo and the future of Thomas Partey uncertain, they have agreed a deal to sign Christian Norgaard from Brentford for £15million. Their biggest target this summer remains a striker - with both Benjamin Sesko and Viktor Gyokeres of interest. While Sesko is believed to be Arsenal's preferred option, sources have indicated to MailSport that RB Leipzig are driving a hard bargain over Sesko because they know how desperate the Gunners are for a striker. Meanwhile, Gyokeres is said to have believed that he reached a gentleman's agreement with Sporting last summer that would see the Portuguese league champions accept a fee around €70million (£60m), including add-ons, at the end of the 2024-25 season. However, Sporting are now appearing to hold out for a significantly increased fee - with Gyokeres having a €100million (£84million) release clause in his current contract. Despite Gyokeres' apparent agitation for a move, Sporting president Frederico Varandas accused the Swede's team of attempting to 'blackmail' Sporting, while he reportedly threatened to go on strike after vowing to 'speak at the right time '. Arsenal have also been linked with a winger to bolster their options in attack, with Eberechi Eze and Rodrygo reportedly among their preferred targets. While they were also looking at Athletic Club's Nico Williams, he has already made clear that he intends to join Barcelona should he leave Bilbao. Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga will move to Emirates Stadium this summer after his £5million release clause was triggered by the Blues' London rivals. He will act as back-up to David Raya after previous number two Neto's loan spell ended and saw him return to Bournemouth - where Kepa impressed on loan himself last season.

Darwin Nunez says yes to Liverpool exit but Reds face wait to sell unwanted star
Uruguayan forward Darwin Nunez has no future at Anfield after falling down the pecking order during Arne Slot's first season, and he wants to tie up a move to Napoli Darwin Nunez has told Napoli that he is ready to leave Liverpool this summer - but the Italian club are ready to play a waiting game in a bid to force the Reds to drop their £70million valuation. Nunez, the 26-year-old signing from Benfica, has come to the conclusion that he has no future at Anfield under boss Arne Slot after making just eight Premier League starts as the Dutchman landed the title in his first season in charge. He has given Napoli the green light to find an agreement with Liverpool - but the Italian champions believe a deal of around £50million would represent a fair price for both clubs. They are prepared to see how the summer transfer market develops, with Slot's sights on adding a new striker to his team capable of bringing more goals on a consistent basis. Newcastle 's Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike of Eintracht Frankfurt are both admired by the Liverpool boss - but both will cost big money. After already spending £185million this summer on Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong, the Merseysiders will want to generate full value for any departures. Napoli are hoping that Victor Osimhen will accept a £67m move to Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal to strengthen their war chest. That would give the Serie A club more scope to get closer to Liverpool's valuation of Nunez, who scored just seven goals all season. The Uruguayan wasn't used from the start by Slot for the final two months of the season, with the Reds requiring to make an extra payment to Benfica if he started one more league match after the 3-1 win over Southampton on March 8. Nunez cost an initial £64m when he arrived from Benfica in the summer of 2022, with add-ons - including that aforementioned clause - potentially taking the fee up to £85m. That would have made him Liverpool's most expensive player ever, but Germany international Wirtz has now taken that crown following his move from Bayer Leverkusen for an initial £100m which could rise to £116m - a British record transfer fee.
