Here are the latest Arsenal transfer rumours for Thursday, August 4.
Youri Tielemans potential blow
Leicester City's latest James Maddison move could spell positive news for both Arsenal and Spurs as the pair remain hopeful in the transfer races for two of the Foxes stars whose futures will depend on other outgoings.
According to Toon reporter for Sky Sports Keith Downie: "Second Newcastle offer for James Maddison rejected by Leicester. Newcastle deciding whether to continue their pursuit of Maddison or move on to other targets. They don’t want to overpay for players due to FFP regulations."

Most significantly though, Arsenal will be given the most encouragement out of the London trio due to the fact that Maddison staying put would mean that a Youri Tielemans move wouldn't be such a significant blow to the East Midlands side.
With only one year to go on his deal, cashing in on the Belgian may not seem like such a bad idea from Rodgers' perspective, as long as the former Norwich man was to stay put and a suitable replacement will be found for the deeper midfield position.
Hector Bellerin move close
Hector Bellerin's move to Real Betis is reportedly 'on track' with his contract set to be terminated at Arsenal to agree terms to re-join the La Liga club.
Spanish news outlet ABC de Sevilla had recently reported that Bellerin’s representatives are in talks with Arsenal to terminate his contract, while he will give up the wages Arsenal has to pay him. The report goes on to say that Betis will need to sell players first if they want to sign him.
Pablo Mari exit
According to Italian transfer guru Gianluca Di Marzio, Arsenal defender Pablo Mari is set to sign for Serie A side Monza in the coming days.
Mari enjoyed a successful loan stint with Udinese last term.
