Arsenal Transfers Latest & Odds
Ollie Watkins - 33% Chance (2/1)
Ollie Watkins is a shortest price of 2/1 with Ladbrokes but can be found at abest price of 7/1 with Betfred to join Arsenal this window.
Following their impressive 5-1 win against Manchester City, it seems they may be able to manage without a new striker.
Despite this, fans remain hopeful that the club will make a move for Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins, a self-proclaimed Gunners supporter.
However, Watkins' chances of leaving Villa Park were affected over the weekend after Jhon Duran's £64m transfer to Saudi Arabia.
Aston Villa rejected Arsenal’s £60m bid last week, with the club firmly stating that Watkins is not for sale. The Gunners made their offer just before Villa’s Champions League victory over Celtic, where Watkins scored but missed a penalty.
Unai Emery has emphasized that any potential transfer would require a massive fee, but Arsenal are expected to make another push today.
Mathys Tel - 29% Chance
He is a as short as 5/2 to join Arsenal this window but can be found at a best price of 4/1 with Paddy Power.
Mathys Tel's potential move to Arsenal is heating up as Mikel Arteta looks to to have joined Premier League company in targetting the forward.
The 19-year-old Bayern Munich striker is seeking more first-team minutes and has already rejected Tottenham and Bayern have rejected two offers from Man United.
With injuries to Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus, Arsenal could offer Tel the chance to start and compete for major trophies, including a spot in the Champions League knockout stages.
A loan deal with an option to buy could be the key to securing his signature.

Bryan Mbeumo - 17% Chance (9/2)
Bryan Mbeumo is priced at 9/2 with William Hill, but you can find odds as long as 8/1 with Bet Victor for a potential January move to Arsenal.
With 14 Premier League goals this season, Mbeumo’s clinical form makes him an appealing option for Arsenal.
Averaging a goal involvement every 1.41 games, his versatility—effective both as a winger and a striker—aligns well with Arsenal’s tactical approach.
At a rumored £50m price tag and with possible summer interest from rivals, now might be the perfect moment for Arsenal to secure Mbeumo, adding a direct goal threat to their attack.
Arteta is believed to be a long-time admirer of the French forward but there has been no formal approaches from Arsenal yet.
