On July 25th, according to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, Fulham are close to agreeing a deal with Arsenal for midfielder Emile Smith Rowe, with a fee of £35 million said to be agreed. The player is also keen on the move.
Arsenal played a friendly match against Bournemouth in the US today, eventually winning 6-5 on penalties. After the game, Arteta spoke to the media.
Regarding the transfer rumors surrounding Calafiori, he said: “There’s nothing new, when I know the real situation I’ll tell you, you know I don’t like talking about external players.”
In this match, Arsenal rotated several players in the second half, but Smith Rowe was left out, which led to speculation that a move to Fulham is imminent. Arteta responded: “There are some things happening behind the scenes, so we thought it was best not to use him.”
