Arsenal have been linked with a striker ever since the January transfer window when their long pursuit of Dusan Vlahovic ended in the striker moving from Fiorentina to Juventus.But with the Gunners’ interest supposedly now lying in David, the 22-year-old striker is purportedly keen on a departure from Joselyn Gourvennec’s side.According to Sky Sports, David wants to depart the club he joined in the summer of 2019 from Belgian side Gent.

Mikel Arteta granted Wilshere permission to join sessions.There were even reports that Wilshere could be offered a short-term deal with his old side, but they were wide of the mark, and the midfielder had to make the move to Denmark to seize a rare opportunity.Wilshere will be hoping that this isn't a sign of things to come though, as the Englishman hasn't exactly had the luckiest ride in his career, after being tipped as the next big thing at Arsenal.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has played down the fact that his side have two games in hand on Manchester United in the race for a top-four finish after moving to within one point of them in the Premier League table.

Fortunately, Gabriel and Dixon’s blushes were spared as Nicolas Pepe's second half strike and a last minute own goal by Wolves' goalkeeper Jose Sa gave the north Londoners a vital 2-1 victory.But the match, and quite possible their top four hopes, were almost sidelined, after the former Arsenal defender compared White and Gabriel to Arsenal Invincibles Martin Keown, Tony Adams, and Steve Bould.

But during the clip, only a handful of players trudge over to celebrate with the Gunners former talisman.At the time, Graeme Souness claimed that the reluctant celebrations were the sign of a fractured dressing room as a result of Sanchez's contract dispute.“I’ve only ever seen that if a team’s 5-1 up with five minutes to go, you would get that," Souness said at the time."Not when you’ve just gone 2-1 up and you’ve been under the cosh.
