Arsenal are looking to consolidate top spot when they take on Chelsea on Sunday amid suggestions they missed out on signing Miguel Almiron.
The Gunners are sitting pretty in the Premier League, owing largely to their recruitment which saw them add the likes of Gabriel Jesus. First-team stars Martin Odegaard and Aaron Ramsdale were signed less than 18 months ago, but Almiron's agent claimed a loan offer was tabled by the north Londoners.
Newcastle's winger has been one of their standout performers after previously enduring a mixed time in the north east. Arsenal have also been handed a boost by a former youngster, who has hinted that he'd be open to a move back to the Emirates.
