Crystal Palace have joined the race to sign Fulham-linked Arsenal playmaker Emile Smith Rowe and are preparing an offer , according to reports.

Smith Rowe has fallen out of favour under manager Mikel Arteta, who owes a lot to the 23-year-old.

In the Spaniard s early and very testing days as Gunners boss, the form of Smith Rowe helped keep him in a job.

He was rewarded with a new contract and the No. 10 shirt ahead of the 2021/22 campaign, snubbing interest from Premier League rivals Aston Villa.

Smith Rowe s form was excellent that season, scoring 10 goals in 33 league matches.

Real Sociedad have rejected an opening offer from Arsenal for Spain midfielder Mikel Merino, according to reports.

Merino has emerged as the Gunners top transfer target after securing Bologna defender Riccardo Calafiori for an initial £38million.

Liverpool s interest in Martin Zubimendi cast doubt over Mikel Arteta s pursuit of Merino, with Sociedad very reluctant to lose both players in the same window.

West Ham United are reportedly confident they will complete the signing of AS Roma striker Tammy Abraham before the summer transfer window closes.

Abraham, 26, moved to Roma for around £35million after a 16-year career at Chelsea that included loan spells at Swansea City, Bristol City and Aston Villa, all in the Championship.

This allowed German club RB Leipzig to swoop in and sign Geertruida for a fee of £25m in a late deadline day deal with the right-back agreeing to a five year contract at the Bundesliga club.
