EXCL: Delay over Arsenal announcements, Man Utd explore alternative GK but further Onana talks today, plus latest on Kane-Bayern, Caicedo-Chelsea, and more

Today's exclusive column, featuring Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea and more!

No need to panic over Rice and Timer announcements!

To start with, I know Arsenal fans are desperate to hear official announcements on Declan Rice, but I can’t control that. It’s not on journalists to say when clubs will announce deals, only the club can do this, but I’m not changing my position, despite rumours - I’m told it’s just a matter of announcement, Arsenal have everything ready for Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber. I already said that both deals are done, that’s it, nothing else. Only Arsenal can decide about announcements, and this is the same for any club.

I’m also aware of some other Arsenal rumours doing the rounds, with some reports that Ferran Torres could leave Barcelona, possibly on loan. I’m not currently aware of anything concrete on that. Barcelona would be open to discussing this in case of big proposals but nothing has happened as of now, it’s very quiet.
