Chelsea's interest in Myles Lewis-Skelly has sharpened into a concrete approach, with Sky Sports News reporting a formal enquiry and Football London saying the 19-year-old has been "offered" to the club. Manchester United have also been mentioned in the New York Times' coverage of his situation. However, the Evening Standard and NYT both report that Lewis-Skelly himself is focused on staying, having previously spoken of wanting a legacy at Arsenal, with his uncertain first-team standing following Bruno Guimaraes' arrival cited as context for the speculation rather than any desire to leave.
Elsewhere in the market, Arsenal remain linked with Aston Villa's Ezri Konsa, who was left out of Villa's squad for their PSG clash, while the Evening Standard reports Arsenal have been handed a "clear run" at PSG's Bradley Barcola after Liverpool were said to be ready to abandon talks. Reiss Nelson continues to be linked with a West Ham move. The New York Times notes Arsenal's Guimaraes deal has pushed "Big Six" spending on Premier League rivals' players past £1.2bn this window.
On the pitch, Arsenal host Como at the Emirates in their final pre-season friendly, while the women's squad continue their La Manga training camp.
