'I thought that you were going to say mum!' - Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta dodges three-letter word question on Eberechi

Tottenham are sounding out attacking alternatives to Eberechi Eze after rivals Arsenal dramatically swooped to beat Thomas Frank’s side to his signature.

Arsenal confirmed a transfer worth £60m and £7.5m in add-ons – pretty much exactly Eze’s release clause - and the boyhood Gunners fan was unveiled at the Emirates before the Premier League match against Leeds. It leaves Spurs in a late scramble for a new attacker as the deadline looms, with Man City’s Savinho topping their list. However, The Independent understands both clubs are still very far apart when it comes to agreeing a price for the Brazilian.

Alexander Isak’s explosive statement this week accused Newcastle of “broken promises” and “lost trust”, with Liverpool still strongly linked with a move for the Swedish striker. The Reds’ offer of £110m fell short of Newcastle’s valuation and Eddie Howe described Isak’s statement as a “sad moment”, but the Magpies boss insists he won’t be left striker-short by the end of the window.

Wolves hoping to complete double deal

Wolves are expected to close out a deal for Girona’s Ladislav Krejci soon, with that one worth around €30m.

While a verbal agreement is in place for that deal, the club have also submitted a bid of around €20m for Getafe striker Christantus Uche, with “talks ongoing with player’s camp” according to Fabrizio Romano.

Could that latter move open the door for Jorgen Strand Larsen to leave this summer?
