Arsenal confident of agreeing new deal with winger

In modern football, tactics have evolved into complex systems that depend heavily on individual player traits. Whether it’s a forward’s instinct for space or a midfielder’s passing vision, managers now tailor tactics around the core attributes of their squad. As formations become more fluid, it’s the specific traits of each player — not just their position — that determine their tactical role on the pitch.

Manchester United have reportedly informed goalkeeper Andre Onana that he can leave the club in the near future.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has heaped praise on Gabriel Martinelli following the club’s 2-0 Champions League win over Athletic Bilbao on the road.
