Here is your Arsenal morning digest on Thursday, March 10.
Sanches targeted by Juventus
According to Fichajes, via The Hard Tackle, Juventus are looking to sign Renato Sanches in the summer transfer window, as they look to add a new midfielder to shore up their options in the middle of the park.
Arsenal and Liverpool are also in the race to sign the 24-year-old Portugal international, with Lille ready to sanction a sale for the right price.
Lacazette labels Partey a 'killer'
Alexandre Lacazette shared an image of his slightly cut foot on Instagram, joking that Thomas Partey is a 'killer' for leaving a late challenge on him in training.
Team spirit is at an all-time high at the Emirates, proven by a run of form that has seen the Gunners win eight of their last ten Premier League games.
They're evidently working hard on the training pitch - perhaps a little too hard in fact, as Lacazette shared on Wednesday.
The Frenchman shared an image of his slightly grazed foot and lower leg on his Instagram story, along with the caption: "PLAYER OF THE MONTH. KILLER OF THE DAY @THOMASPARTEY5."

Legends agree on 'perfect' Lacazette replacement
Arsenal legend Perry Groves has encouraged his former side to sign Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the summer.
“I don’t think they are going to re-sign Alexandre Lacazette. I am a big fan of Lacazette, the quality he brings players in around him with the physicality,” he told the Daily Star, as cited by football365.
“Obviously his goalscoring output has dropped substantially over the last 18 months but the money and the wages he is on, I don’t think they will renew for that sort of money.
“I would bring in someone like [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin. I think he would fit in perfectly, his attitude is good, taught by Carlo Ancelotti and off the ball he can close down and press.”
Groves isn't the only former Arsenal star who's an admirer of the Everton striker, however, as Paul Merson also thinks that Calvert-Lewin is the ideal forward replacement.
