After a horror start to the season, the Gunners finally got their season underway with a 1-0 win against the newly promoted Norwich at the Emirates.

Norwich City have opened talks with Real Betis over a move for midfielder William Carvalho, according to a report by Sky Sports. Carvalho spent seven years at Sporting CP at the beginning of his career, making almost 200 appearances and winning two domestic trophies.

However, he later moved to Real Betis in 2018 after the World Cup in a deal worth around £15 million. He began as a regular starter but has since been in and out of the side. Carvalho made 12 La Liga starts and a further 15 appearances off the bench last season as Manuel Pellegrini’s men finished in sixth and qualified for the Europa League. According to...

Norwich City and Rangers could offer stiff competition to Bournemouth in the race to sign free-agent Gary Cahill, The Sun reports. Cahill recently confirmed his departure from Crystal Palace, and it appears that there is plenty of interest in landing his signature.

Rangers would offer Cahill a fresh challenge in a new league, but they can’t offer a big salary after failing to make the Champions League proper.
