Arsenal’s late-window scramble for a new talisman led them directly to the door of Inter captain Lautaro Martinez. Following the departure of Gabriel Jesus and a failed pursuit of Julian Alvarez, the Gunners turned their attention to the prolific Argentine in the final days of August.

Details have emerged of a supposed late effort by Manchester City to scupper Arsenal's hunt for Julian Alvarez ahead of deadline day

The details of a conversation between Mikel Arteta and Alvarez have emerged amid reported interest from one of Arsenal’s Premier League rivals.

Julián Álvarez, wanted by the champions of Spain and England, has faced a backlash from Atlético Madrid fans over his desire to leave. Will he get his summer move?

Alvarez has been at the centre of transfer intrigue involving Barcelona, Real Madrid, Arsenal and Atletico this summer.

Arsenal has been linked with Atletico Madrid's Julian Alvarez who is being pursued by Barcelona in the summer transfer window.

Julián Álvarez rejected an offer to join Arsenal. The Argentine striker is pressuring Atlético de Madrid to greenlight his transfer to FC Barcelona.

Julian Alvarez was whistled and insulted by Atletico Madrid fans as he made his first appearance for the club since expressing his desire to move away, amid interest from Barcelona and Arsenal.

No Julian Alvarez. No Vinicius Junior. No Morgan Rogers. Three separate pursuits of an elite attacker, three failures, and Mikel Arteta enters the new Premier League season as champion with a front line that has lost four players and gained one.
