Hello, and welcome to the live Arsenal transfer blog for Friday, 1 August, 2025.

The start of a new month means that we are now into the final part of the summer transfer window. Clubs have just a month left to complete deals with the window closing on September 1 (7pm).

Arsenal have been one of the busier teams so far in the off-season. They have completed moves for Martin Zubimendi, Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera, Christian Norgaard and Kepa Arrizabalaga.

But the Gunners aren't done there. They are now on the search for a left winger with Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze emerging as a key target.

Arsenal also been linked with an interest in Real Madrid's Rodrygo throughout the summer.

There are also expected to be some outgoings before the end of the month. Fulham could offer the Gunners a big helping hand with deals for Reiss Nelson and Oleksandr Zinchenko.

Potential double deal

Arsenal could have a potential double sale on their hands with Premier League rivals Fulham reportedly showing an interest in both Reiss Nelson and Oleksandr Zinchenko this summer.

Nelson spent last season on loan with the Cottagers, but saw his campaign disrupted by injury. That has not stopped the club re-entering talks with Arsenal over a potential deal.

The Daily Mail also reports that Fulham are also showing an interest in a deal for Zinchenko, who has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates Stadium.

Eberechi Eze latest

Arsenal have until 11:59pm tonight to trigger Eberechi Eze's release clause, but have already informed Crystal Palace that they have no plans to do so, according to TalkSPORT.

It is reported that the clause consists of a £60 million fee with £8 million in add-ons.

However, Arsenal are delaying making a formal bid to Palace due to them assessing their attacking needs.
