Newcastle United are denying Arsenal have opened 'direct talks' and say there has still not been contact, a bid or any offers, nor will they entertain any - @Football_LDN

As @SamWallaceTel reported, Arsenal have indeed agreed to extend their deal with Emirates by two years beyond the current expiration date!
New deal is financially a significant increase on the old one but no comment on the value of that so far.
After missing out on Morgan Rogers, Arsenal are looking at alternatives - @Football_LDN
Bradley Barcola and Yan Diomande have been the marquee names discussed. But Mika Godts and Kerim Alajbegovic are two younger options also appreciated.
#CFC promised to wait for end of England's World Cup bid to make move for Rogers.
Thursday: Formal talks begin
Friday: Alonso calls Rogers, personal terms sorted
Saturday: Negotiations with #AVFC completed.
More here with @J_Tanswell & @gunnerblog#AFC

Lisandro Martinez seemed to suffer apparent thigh injury when he fouled Oyarzabal. He's missed 92 #mufc games through injury but Hull away still more than four weeks away
The Spanish players cutting up the net from the goal in which Torres scored as mementoes (as they did in 2010). State of New Jersey can add it to the FIFA bill
All the Spanish players' families and friends are now joining them on the pitch. New FIFA rule seems to be that each has to wear a white bib. Strong 'mass emergency response' vibes
Argentina one of the worst World
Cup finalists there has ever been. Like in 2010, Spain weren’t the most entertaining side but certainly the most accomplished. Managed the final impeccably. Deserving winners.
#mufc are open to both a loan and a permanent sale for Vitek. Any deal would almost certainly include a sell-on clause and a buy-back option.

From earlier…sales at #CFC are a key part of the summer window. They are on course to make over £300m, just like they did 12 months ago. Plan was always to use outgoings to help pay for new signings. #Rogers
