EXCL: Edu's SHOCK exit and what it means for Arteta, plus could Arsenal get Gyokeres transfer boost & is Lookman one to watch?

Edu’s shock exit will have an impact on Arteta
Edu’s imminent departure from Arsenal has certainly come as a surprise.

I’m flying out to Italy on Tuesday for the Champions League game with Inter and I will be at Mikel Arteta’s press conference, which is due to take place at San Siro at around 7pm.
It will be interesting to see if Arsenal make an announcement before then. I would expect that they will, just so they have something official out there before Arteta has to sit in front of a room full of journalists, but we’ll have to wait and see.
