Arsenal news: Mikel Arteta's problem with Eberechi Eze as talks halted
Arsenal head into their midweek Champions League clash against Bayern Munich having arrested their slide down the Premier League table. Mikel Arteta's side claimed a hard-fought victory at Nottingham Forest to remain just three points off league leaders Manchester City, and now have the opportunity to make it three wins from three in European competition, but it has hardly been plain sailing.
TL;DR
- Eberechi Eze was substituted at halftime during Arsenal's match against Nottingham Forest.
- Alan Pardew suggested Eze may not fit Arteta's system as a No. 10 or left winger and might be better as a substitute.
- Pardew believes Eze's tendency to play centrally can make Arsenal's attack too narrow.
- Arsenal and Manchester United have reportedly cooled their interest in Sporting CP player Maxi Araujo.
- Rumors of a £55 million offer for Araujo are considered inaccurate, and he signed a contract extension until 2030.
