How to watch Arsenal vs Tottenham: TV channel and live stream for pre-season north London derby

Yahoo30-07-2025
Arsenal and Tottenham continue their pre-season campaigns on Thursday with the first north London Derby ever held outside the UK.
All eyes will be on Mikel Arteta's team selection as Viktor Gyokeres is set to receive his first Arsenal minutes after completing a £55million move from Sporting.
Arsenal were crying out for a consistent striker throughout last season, and the hope is that the prolific Swede will help them reach the summit of the Premier League.
In the opposite dugout, Thomas Frank is juggling a few injuries with Radu Dragusin and Dejan Kulusevski still out, while James Maddison and Dominic Solanke are considered doubts.
After recording draws with both Wycombe and Luton Town in a double-header day of friendlies last weekend, Spurs are in need of a positive result.
With just two more friendlies remaining before they face Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Super Cup, time is running out to get on song.
How to watch Arsenal vs Tottenham
TV channel: The match will not be broadcast on TV in the UK.

Top MLS Transfer Fees: Where Son Lands and Why Messi, Beckham Don't Make List

MLS Top MLS Transfer Fees: Where Son Lands and Why Messi, Beckham Don't Make List Updated Aug. 6, 2025 9:00 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link Lionel Messi, David Beckham, Zlatan Ibrahimovic. These global icons would make any shortlist of the greatest MLS signings – but don't look for them on the highest transfer fee list. That list is now topped by Son Heung-min. The South Korean superstar joined LAFC from Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday for a reported fee of $26 million, which would break the MLS record. Interestingly, the biggest international names in MLS history such as Messi and Beckham signed on free transfers – although their annual salaries were among the league's highest (Messi currently makes $20 million a season). So let's look at this in two lists: The top five highest MLS transfer fees, and the five most impactful international stars in the league's history. 1. Son Heung-min: Tottenham Hotspur to LAFC (2025) Reported fee: $26 million Son leaves the Premier League as a legend, helping Spurs win the 2024-25 Europa League to break a 17-year-old trophy drought in North London. Son had 173 goals and registered 101 assists in 454 appearances for the club in all competitions. He'll lead South Korea into the 2026 World Cup, making him a star attraction both on and off the field. ADVERTISEMENT 2. Emmanuel Latte Lath: Middlesbrough to Atlanta United (2025) Reported fee: $22 million Not the most recognizable name for the No. 2 spot on this list, but Latte Lath was a steady contributor in the second-tier English Championship (29 goals in 67 appearances) before joining Atlanta. The Ivory Coast star has 6 goals in 20 appearances for Atlanta, who aren't shy about spending big bucks on talent.

Kévin Denkey: Cercle Brugge to FC Cincinnati (2024) Reported fee: $16.2 million The striker from Togo has shined in his first season in Cincinnati, scoring 12 goals in 20 appearances. Denkey has been a key playmaker for a team that is expected to be among the top MLS Cup contenders. Of note is Denkey's teammate, Evander, who was at the center of the largest intra-league transfer fee ($13.3 million to Portland) in 2025. 4. Thiago Almada: Velez Sarfsfeld to Atlanta United (2022) Reported fee: $16 million A pair of Argentine players who had short stints in Atlanta round out the top-five on the list, even if they had slightly different post-MLS trajectories. Almada became the first and only player to win the World Cup as an MLS player. In 2024, he headed to Brazilian club Botafogo (the second-highest outbound MLS transfer at $24 million) and then his long-desired move to Europe by going to French club Lyon. Earlier this summer, he signed with Atletico Madrid. Not a bad club track. Thiago Almada, who won the World Cup with Argentina in 2022, was once an Atlanta United player.

Gonzalo "Pity" Martinez (2019): River Plate to Atlanta United (2019) Reported fee: $14 million Martinez was expected to be a surefire superstar after starring for Buenos Aires powerhouse Buenos Aires. He won the Copa Libertadores in 2018 and was named South America's best player that year. However, he never really caught on in Atlanta and headed to Saudi side Al-Nassr in 2020. Top Five Most Impactful MLS Signings So let's now look at the more recognizable names who starred in MLS. All of these legends were Designated Players, meaning that their salaries were outside of the league-mandated salary cap structure. The DP rule was implemented when Beckham joined in 2007 as a way for clubs to be able to compete for incoming stars. 1. Lionel Messi: Inter Miami (2023-present) Arguably the greatest player of our era, Messi arrived in Miami one year after winning the World Cup. He could have retired after lifting the trophy to Qatar but instead took one more challenge in MLS and joined the team co-owned by Beckham. His impact has been immediate (58 goals in 70 appearances) with two pieces of silverware to his name. Miami remains a heavy favorite to win the MLS Cup this season thanks to their all-everything captain. If Beckham paved the way of global icons coming to MLS, then its Messi who has improbably taken it to another level. 2. David Beckham: LA Galaxy (2007-2012) By the time Beckham announced his shocking decision to leave Real Madrid to play in the MLS, his celebrity had overshadowed his accomplishments on the pitch. But make no mistake: Beckham was more than just a global ambassador for the sport. During his time in Europe, he won the Premier League six times, most famously in 1999, when Manchester United completed the treble. That same year, he was runner-up for the Ballon d'Or. Beckham won back-to-back MLS Cup crowns (2011-2012) before finishing his club career at PSG. His contract with MLS included a clause to purchase a future franchise, which he did for $25 million. By 2020, Inter Miami was up and running and three years later Messi came on board – connecting the two icons that will likely rule the top of the list for years to come.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic: LA Galaxy (2018-19) When Ibrahimovic signed with the LA Galaxy in 2018, he took a full-page advertisement in the Los Angeles Times that said, "Dear Los Angeles, you're welcome." And his confidence, while brash, was warranted, as he had won at least one major trophy in the five top-flight European leagues he played in prior to joining MLS, including the La Liga title with Messi and Barcelona in 2009. Ibrahimovic is arguably the most unique player on this list because, despite 36 years old when he came to MLS, he continued to have a successful career in Europe after spending two seasons stateside, and his resume at the club level is excellent. If anything, it's testament to Messi's greatness that Zlatan is not considered the most talented player to ever play in MLS. You're welcome, MLS. Zlatan Ibrahimovic took the league by storm during his tenure with the Galaxy. (Photo by) 4. Thierry Henry: New York Red Bulls (2010-2014) If Beckham was the first big domino to drop in European superstars raising the profile of MLS, Henry was the second and arguably biggest in terms of stature. The French striker was part of Arsenal's Invincibles, which won the Premier League in 2004 without losing a game. He also played at Barcelona alongside Messi, winning the European treble in 2009 before arriving to New Jersey in 2010. With France, he won the World Cup (1998) and the Euros (2000) — and you have one of the most impactful MLS additions of all time. After a legendary career in Europe, France's Thierry Henry became one of the marquee players in MLS. (Photo by) 5. David Villa: NYCFC (2015-18) David Villa's crowning achievement was winning the World Cup with Spain in 2010, but he also had a decorated club career in the following years, winning two La Liga titles and a Champions League alongside Messi at Barcelona, and capping off his European career with one last La Liga title at Atletico Madrid in 2014. Villa joined NYCFC as part of a star-laden lineup in 2015 that include England great Frank Lampard and Italy legend Andrea Pirlo. David Villa had the most success of that Big 3, being named an All-Star for his four seasons at NYCFC and earning MLS MVP honors in 2016. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Juventus eye Arsenal defender in surprise summer transfer

Juventus eye Arsenal defender in surprise summer transfer originally appeared on The Sporting News Juventus have identified Arsenal defender Jakub Kiwior as a potential replacement for Lloyd Kelly if the Englishman leaves the club this summer, Sporting News understands. The Serie A giants are weighing up a move for Kiwior, who has attracted interest from several European clubs in recent months. Kelly joined Juventus from Newcastle in January on an initial loan deal with an obligation to buy for £14.7 million ($18.7m). He had joined Newcastle only the previous summer on a free transfer from Bournemouth and made just 10 appearances before making the switch to Italy. Kiwior, 25, signed for Arsenal from Spezia in January 2023 for a fee of £20 million ($25.5m). The Poland international has struggled to cement a regular starting place in Mikel Arteta's side, making just 10 Premier League starts last season. 📲 Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp Porto attempted to sign Kiwior earlier this summer but dropped their interest after Arsenal made it clear they would only consider offers in the region of £26 million ($33.2m). Despite the limited game time, Arteta is understood to be keen to keep Kiwior, who is valued for his versatility across the backline. The Arsenal boss publicly praised the defender in May following a run of games that came while Gabriel Magalhaes was sidelined with a hamstring issue. "He deserves a lot of credit because he hasn't played too much throughout many months, and suddenly he's been thrown into the most difficult context, at the highest level, playing against the best opponents," Arteta said. "I think he's been exceptional." With Gabriel yet to feature in pre-season, Kiwior is expected to start alongside William Saliba in Arsenal's Premier League opener against Manchester United on 17 August. Who else could leave Arsenal this summer? Elsewhere, midfielder Fabio Vieira is in talks with Bundesliga side Stuttgart over a permanent move. The 25-year-old is surplus to requirements at the Emirates after an underwhelming three-year spell. Signed from Porto for £30 million ($38.3m), he made 49 appearances and returned to his boyhood club on loan last season. His departure would clear further space in midfield, especially following the rise of teenager Ethan Nwaneri, who has impressed Arteta and the coaching staff. Reiss Nelson is also in talks over a potential return to Fulham. The 24-year-old winger has struggled for regular playing time at Arsenal and could leave the club permanently if a deal is agreed.

Los Angeles FC introduces South Korean superstar Son Heung-min amid excitement and ambition

'What can I say? Dream come true. LA, what a city,' said Son, who will wear No. 7 in black and gold. Advertisement Son had suitors from around the globe after he decided to leave Tottenham, and he said the decision to join LAFC initially wasn't obvious. He came around to the idea of moving to MLS after conversations with LAFC general manager John Thorrington, who sold Son on the 8-year-old club's ambition to be an international brand and the most successful club in North America. 'If I'm honest, it was not my first choice,' Son said. 'But [from the] first call when I talked to John after the season finished, he just changed my mind. He changed my heart. He changed my brain. He showed me the destination where I should be. Right now, I'm here. I'm more than happy.' Advertisement Son laughingly said he was also pitched aggressively by Hugo Lloris, his longtime teammate at Tottenham who is now LAFC's starting goalkeeper. Son is South Korea's most popular athlete, and he is widely considered to be the greatest Asian soccer player in history. He said he already feels at home in Los Angeles, which has the world's largest ethnic Korean population outside Korea and a robust base of soccer fans from all backgrounds who appreciate his accomplishments. Son's introductory news conference was attended by Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, South Korea's consul general, several additional politicians, dozens of Korean journalists and dozens of drum-beating, singing fans from the LAFC supporters' group famous for its relentless, raucous noise during matches. Son already got a taste of LAFC fans' passion Tuesday when he attended the club's Leagues Cup victory over Tigres. 'On behalf of millions of Angelenos and soccer fans around the world — Sonny, welcome to Los Angeles,' Bass said. 'This is a moment that will be remembered in the city for generations to come.' Son joins a lengthy list of soccer stars from European leagues who moved to Hollywood for a second act in their careers. Gareth Bale, Giorgio Chiellini and Olivier Giroud have all suited up for LAFC, while the crosstown rival LA Galaxy have welcomed even more European superstars, including David Beckham, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robbie Keane and Marco Reus. Son did not appear to be in decline during the past season as Tottenham's captain, and he said he is in good game shape after participating in Spurs' summer tour of Asia. He did not set a date for his LAFC debut, but it could be this month. Advertisement 'I just felt like I need a new chapter, I need a new challenge, and I choose LAFC,' Son said. 'I think we can say I'm old, but I still have a good physicality, good legs, and still have a good quality. I'm here to perform, but also I want to give some advice to the young players for improvement. That's why we are here.'
