Arteta Gives Update On Smith Rowe’s Arsenal future Amid Links With Fulham

Mikel Arteta has hinted that an Emile Smith Rowe departure is imminent amid reports linking him to Fulham.

It was reported earlier today that Fulham are close to reaching an agreement for Smith Rowe for a fee around £30million.
Personal terms are yet to be agreed, with the player also needing to complete a medical.

The 23-year-old didn’t feature in Arsenal’s pre-season with Bournemouth in Los Angeles despite every outfield player having been substituted in the match.
On Smith Rowe’s future, Arteta said: “Yeah things are happening in the background at the moment. We decided the best thing to do was to keep him away from the game today.”

Smith Rowe emerged as among the most highly touted academy prospects in recent Arsenal history, earning the coveted No.10 shirt at just 21 years of age.
However, a groin injury in 2022 saw the attacking midfielder miss extended time and make just four Premier League starts for the Gunners the past three seasons.

He had previously turned down moves to Chelsea and Saudi Arabia due to personal terms.

Despite speculation about an early exit, Galatasaray’s technical director, Okan Buruk, confirmed that while his loan deal included a January transfer clause, Osimhen chose to stay, prioritizing his commitment to the club.

Portugal and Al Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo has declared himself the most complete footballer ever, citing his record-breaking achievements and versatility on the pitch.

 

Speaking in an interview with Spanish show El Chiringuito, the 39-year-old emphasized his scoring prowess across all aspects of the game.

 

“Who’s the best goal scorer in history? It’s about numbers. I rank among the top 10 left-footed scorers despite not being left-footed. I excel with my head, right foot, free kicks, and penalties. I do everything well in football,” he boasted.

 

Acknowledging personal preferences for legends like Messi, Pelé, and Maradona, Ronaldo insisted that his all-around ability sets him apart.

 

“I haven’t seen anyone better than me,” he stated.

 

Despite his age, Ronaldo remains highly competitive and has no plans to retire, saying his drive to improve keeps him going.

 

“Someone else in my position would have quit 10 years ago. I’m different,” he added.
