Download MP3Welcome back to the Transfer News Podcast, I'm Archer, and we've got a cracking selection of transfer stories to dive into today. From Arsenal's striker hunt to some intriguing moves across Europe, let's get straight into it. Mikel Arteta has issued a warning to Arsenal's rivals about Viktor Gyokores, describing the striker as someone who 'can destroy you'. This seems to be Arteta ramping up the psychological pressure as Arsenal continue their pursuit of the Sporting Lisbon forward, and honestly, it's the kind of mind games we love to see from the Gunners boss. Speaking of strikers, RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko is making waves with his Bundesliga performances, showcasing exactly why he's on so many clubs' radar. His top five goals highlight reel is doing the rounds, and you can see why Premier League sides are keeping tabs on the young Slovenian. Aberdeen have agreed a deal to sign Milan striker Marko Lazetic, which represents a significant coup for the Scottish Premiership side. Getting a player from Milan's setup, even on loan, shows Aberdeen's growing ambition under their current management structure. Darwin Nunez has completed his transfer to Al-Hilal, bringing an end to his Liverpool career that promised so much but never quite delivered consistently. The Saudi Pro League continues to attract big names, and this move will certainly give Nunez a fresh start in a different footballing environment. Saturday night brought us the usual flurry of transfer headlines, with various deals and rumors circulating across the European transfer market. It's always fascinating how weekend stories tend to gather momentum heading into the new week of potential announcements. There's an interesting debate brewing about whether Viktor Gyokores or Kai Havertz should start up front at Old Trafford, highlighting the tactical discussions surrounding Arsenal's striker options. This kind of fan engagement shows just how invested supporters are in the technical aspects of team selection and formation. Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Arsenal are still actively looking at options in the transfer market, suggesting the January window could see more movement at the Emirates. With their title ambitions still very much alive, you'd expect them to strengthen where they feel gaps exist in the squad. Finally, Eddie Howe has made his feelings clear about Alexander Isak, stating he wants the striker if Isak wants Newcastle. It's refreshingly honest from the Newcastle boss, and shows the mutual respect that needs to exist for these big transfers to work out successfully.
