Arsène Wenger, the Arsenal manager, is preparing to go toe-to-toe with Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal in the coming months as they prepare to scrap over the signature of a young Italian defender.
Both clubs, according to Italian newspaper Tuttomercato, claim that Arsenal, United and Napoli are all keen on Daniele Rugani, the Juventus defender, who is understood to be keen on leaving the Turin club.
The 21-year-old has struggled to get regular football at the Serie A club and is currently playing second, third or even fourth fiddle behind the experienced Giorgio Chiellini, Andrea Barzagli and Leonardo Bonucci.
Arsenal are reportedly ready to pay £13 million for the Italy under-21 international but will first have to fight off I Ciucciarelli, or the Little Donkeys if you prefer your nicknames in English.
Stop us if you think you have heard this one before, but yes Arsenal are, once agin, poised to sign Edinson Cavani, the Paris St-Germain striker, according to yet another report.
However, given the horrific events in France on Friday night, the latest reports, perhaps, have a little truth to them.
Edinson Cavnai reacts to being told he's still being linked with a move to Arsenal
The Express has reported that the Uruguay player is ready to quit Paris, with his international team-mate Álvaro González saying he would prefer not to have to return after the international break.
"This is horrible, for football and for the city," González said. "They spoke of the fact that David Luiz would not return to Paris and Edinson said he would rather not have to go either."
And finally, Arsenal will definitely make a £21m bid for Jesé Rodríguez, the Real Madrid winger, if we are to believe what we read on Fichajes, the ever-reliable source of transfer news.
The Spanish website claims that Napoli and Inter Milan have been strongly linked with the Spaniard, but the north Londoners are expected to outbid them.
Jesé, the report says, is understood to want to leave the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium where he has struggled under manager Rafael Benítez.
