Enzo Maresca makes injury excuse after Sunderland win

Arsenal summer signing Piero Hincapie could make his debut during the Champions League curtain-raiser against Athletic Bilbao on the road tomorrow.

Arsenal have accepted a bid from Crystal Palace for 25-year-old winger Reiss Nelson, believed to be around andamp;pound;15 million. Nelson spent last season on loan at Fulham, and the Cottagers had hoped to bring the player back to West London but were unable to match the Gunners’ valuation.

Manchester United have no plans of parting ways with midfielder Kobbie Mainoo in any deal during the January transfer window, according to Football Insider.
