MAIT IS BACK!
Arsenal may have taken a 180-degree turn in its resolve to sell Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
Wolves are among the clubs that closely guard the 23-year-old.
But according to The Mirror, the Gunners plan to stay with him during the 2020/21 season.
The source states: “Maitland-Niles is now only in Arsenal, will forget about any discussion about the movement and will only take care of placing a position in the Emirates.”
Work
Arsenal enthusiasts posted this symbol on social media today.
ON YOUR TUESDAYS …
Emiliano Martínez is about to sign a new contract with Arsenal, to The Telegraph.
The goalkeeper has two remaining seasons in his current contract: the club has submitted an extension.
He intervened between the sticks while Bernd Leno went out of action for injury.
FIRE ELL
Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott laughed at Arsenal after his Victory in Community Shield, calling it the McDonald’s Trophy.
Londoner and former player Fulham laughed at the Gunners’ victory in the penalty shootout over his Reds.
Elliott’s teenager, an unused submarine in the Wembley game, posted on Instagram: “Anyway, I’m worried about Brother McDonald’s trophy.”

Arsenal once controlled to qualify for the Champions League Final, when they lost to Barcelona in 2006.

WORTH IT
Arsenal has asked Newcastle to win 25 million pounds for Ainsley Maitland-Niles, after rejecting the Wolves’ brat 15 million pounds.
Spurs manager Jose Mourinho also needs the 23-year-old, who first called through England manager Gareth Southgate this week.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is remodeling his equipment and believes he can use Maitland-Niles cash to fund recruits.
But that figure could scare off the Magpies.
‘DARK HORSES’
Danny Murphy has asked Arsenal to fight for the 4 most sensitive next season, as long as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang stays and the signings are good.
Writing for the Mail, he said: “If you can upload a few more signatures, I think Arsenal can be a black horse for the four most sensitive.
“As things stand, they would cause disdain to teams, but no matter how much they do smart races, they remain vulnerable.
“Willian is a wonderful signing, with his enthusiasm and his winning mentality. Gabriel Magalhaes, Lille’s central defender, is almost over the line.
“If they get the transfer of Dani Ceballos – their most productive player at the end of last season – and point out Thomas Partey of Atletico Madrid, who would give them tenacity and physicality in midfield, I think they have a team to challenge Chelsea and Manchester United for champions.
“Again, none of this will do much unless Aubameyang puts a pen on the paper.”
GUNNER WIN IT?
This is how the start of the season is for Arsenal…
NOTHING GOOD
“Waiting, you’d say he’s a player who potentially needs to move on, but you might have a list of other central defenders you’d spend besides Holding before him.”
Out-of-favour Mesut Ozil has congratulated his team-mates after the Community Shield win.
Yet again, the German was left out of Mikel Arteta’s squad.
