Arsenal want to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves in January but the Midlands club have no interest in selling their talisman mid-season, according to reports.

LONDON (AP) — Arsenal kicked off 2025 with a 3-1 win over Brentford to move back into second place in the Premier League on Wednesday. Mikel Arteta’s team shook off a slow start at Gtech Community Stadium to leapfrog Nottingham Forest and pull within six points of league leader Liverpool, which has a game in hand.

Former Arsenal star Ashley Cole has hit out at the club over his treatment before joining Premier League rivals Chelsea in 2006. Cole infamously swapped the Emirates Stadium for Stamford Bridge following a high-profile dispute with the club's ownership over contract talks.
