Good morning Arsenal fans
Gabriel Jesus’ move to Arsenal has been finally announced by the club, who made it official.
A fee of £45million was agreed between the Gunners and Premier League rivals Manchester City.
Jesus has signed a five-year deal with the North Londoners and is set to link up with former coach Mikel Arteta's squad for pre-season.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are confident of beating Arsenal to signing Lisandro Martinez after meeting with Ajax club chiefs.
United have reportedly offered a fee just shy of £40m for Martinez.
The Dutch champions’ new director of football Klaas-Jan Huntelaar travelled to London on Saturday to meet with United reps, according to the Mirror.
And after talks with Huntelaar, the Red Devils are said to be confident of beating the Gunners in the race to sign the highly-rated centre-back.
The Manchester giants are said to have made a bid worth an initial £35.3m, with a further £4.3m available in add-ons.
The total package works out at £39.6m, with Ajax reportedly valuing the Argentina international at £43m.
Martinez would rather reunite with former manager Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford than join the Gunners.
According to The Athletic, United have "edged ahead as favourites" to sign the 24-year-old for around £35m.
Finally, Arsenal have submitted a bid for Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Milinkovic-Savic has emerged as a target for Arteta, who wants a new No8 this summer.
The Serie A club are open to selling the midfielder in the summer transfer window.
Yet they want a fee of £60m and the Gunners have reportedly bid £47million

Work of Art
Juventus are hoping that Arsenal make another offer to sign Arthur Melo in the summer.
Arthur was heavily linked with a move to the Gunners throughout the January transfer window but a deal never materialised.
But the North Londoners are still said to be considering a swoop with Juve pushing for a sale.
According to Calciomercato, the Bianconeri are desperate for Arsenal to make another offer.
Juventus chiefs are eager to offload the Brazil international's £4.3million-a-year salary before the start of the season, whether that be through a loan deal or a permanent transfer.
But Arsenal have already signed a new midfielder this summer, so they could be reluctant to place a suitable offer after Fabio Vieira's arrival at the Emirates

Prem standing order
Premier League teams will get the go-ahead to open safe standing areas in their grounds from the start of the coming season, writes SunSport’s David Wooding.
Ministers are expected to announce the success of a trial at five grounds and invite all top-flight teams to introduce their respective sections.
It will mean that supporters will be able to stand to watch Prem or Championship matches for the first time in almost 30 years.
Standing has been illegal in the two top leagues since all-seater stadiums were introduced in 1994 after the Taylor report into the Hillsborough disaster.
But after a pilot scheme last season at Chelsea, Tottenham, Cardiff, Manchester City and Manchester United, all other top clubs will be give the all clear to follow suit.
A final report on the government-commissioned trial seen by The Sun on Sunday says the sections delivered a positive impact on spectator safety and improved fans’ matchday experience
