Barca turned down Espi

Carrusel claims that Carlos Espi was offered to Barcelona, but the club decided against signing him, with Espi moving to Real Madrid instead.

Arsenal have confirmed the signing of Vincent Joseph.

A statement reads: “We're delighted to confirm the signing of talented young England U-16s striker Vincent Joseph.

“The forward joins us as part of our first year scholarship intake for the 2026/27 season.

“After getting off to a brilliant start at under-18s level for Liverpool last season, Vincent is keen for more opportunities to develop his game.

“Our new striker will be hoping to help us chase trophies at Academy level this season, and his outstanding goalscoring record could prove important in such a push.”

Arsenal target £17m youngster

Arsenal are monitoring 17-year-old Austrian Luca Weinhandl.

As per CaughtOffside, the midfielder could be available from Sturm Graz for around £17 million.

However, the report states Arsenal will face competition from Brighton and Aston Villa.

'Chelsea should sign Alex Scott'

Former Blues midfielder Emmanuel Petit has revealed his pick to replace Enzo Fernandez.

Speaking to BOYLE Sports, who offer the latest , Petit said:"I really like Alex Scott as a player. He has got so much quality and personality and character. I see him as a leader in how he plays. He has vision, technical skill and energy.

“He is quite powerful. He has everything. It doesn’t surprise me that top clubs in the Premier League are trying to get him.

"Can Chelsea do a deal to sign him in the winter transfer market to replace Enzo Fernandez? That will depend on Bournemouth’s situation but I’m pretty sure if they can find a way to do a deal in January, they will do that, definitely, because Chelsea are missing midfield players."
