Here is your Arsenal transfer roundup on Saturday, July 8.
Kylian Mbappe 'secret agreement'
Ligue 1 champions PSG believe that forward Kylian Mbappe has a "secret agreement" with Real Madrid over a potential transfer in the coming year. That's according to Sky Sports, which reports that the Frenchman could make the switch to Los Blancos in 2024 on a free deal.
Mbappe has been given an ultimatum by PSG to sign a new contract or leave this summer though, having rejected the chance to trigger a one-year contract extension on his deal, leaving just 12-months remaining. Arsenal have also been linked with a potential switch for the World Cup winner, with other claims that his preference is the Gunners.
