Arsenal have not given up on the prospect of beating Liverpool to the signing of Rodrygo from Real Madrid before the summer transfer window closes.

Arsenal are close to announcing their seventh major signing of the summer transfer window ahead of their Premier League match against Leeds this weekend, with more deals to come

Eberechi Eze could make his long-awaited Arsenal debut as soon as Saturday when the Gunners host Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium

The Gunners have already hijacked Tottenham's move for Eberechi Eze and are targeting a Ligue 1 attacker next, according to a report.

Sometimes the grass is not always greener - especially when leaving Crystal Palace. Oliver Glaser has won two trophies in three months and yet the best players want to jump ship. Ebereche Eze is off to Arsenal, Marc Guehi is patiently waiting for Liverpool to come knocking and Adam Wharton is linked with Manchester United.

Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal shouldn't be sleeping on Rodrygo. Apologies to Tottenham, but a hijack turns any of that inseparable trio into clear title favourites.

Arsenal could instruct left-back Riccardo Calafiori to overlap at pace in order to allow Eze to drift infield, though the defender has frequently suffered injuries, and backup left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly is not as suited as operating on the flanks as the Italian.

BBC Sport looks at Eberechi Eze's journey from being released by Arsenal to be on the cusp of a return to the club 14 years later.
