**Another Manchester City player has agreed to join Arsenal, following Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus, after being sidelined by Guardiola due to a recent signing.** Arsenal has reportedly secured this transfer ahead of the January window, finalizing personal terms as they prepare for the second half of the 2024/2025 season.
In recent years, Arsenal has become Manchester Cityâs main competitor for the Premier League title, yet they have struggled to reclaim the trophy. They finished five points behind City two seasons ago and just two points last season, but still fell short of the title they havenât won in nearly twenty years.
Entering the 2024/2025 season, Arsenal is again in a fierce title race with City. This rivalry appears to be escalating, particularly with Cityâs star striker Erling Haaland, who has been instrumental since joining the Premier League.
Haaland’s influence on City has been remarkable, scoring 52 goals in his debut season and playing a crucial role in their treble victory. With 101 goals in 108 appearances, he averages a goal per match, positioning him as one of the league’s top strikers. If he continues this pace, he could surpass Alan Shearerâs all-time record of 260 goals, potentially doing so in fewer matches.
However, reports indicate that Haaland may leave City next summer, with a preference for a La Liga move over Paris Saint-Germain. This potential exit could shift the Premier League’s power dynamics, offering Arsenal a better chance to finally overcome Cityâs dominance in the title race, especially if they narrowly miss out again this sea.
