Chelsea in shock move for Bournemouth defender?

Chelsea preparing swoop for Atalanta midfielder?

The Gunners have had a mixed run of results over the past few weeks. They lost the Carabao Cup final to Manchester City by a 2-0 scoreline.

This was followed by a 2-1 loss to Southampton in the FA Cup quarter-final after the international break, much to the frustration of the fans.

The Gunners returned to winning ways in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Sporting CP (1-0), but they were far from convincing.

Arsenal will be in Premier League action against Bournemouth on Saturday, and ahead of the game, they have received a massive injury boost.

Eze has recovered from a calf problem that has kept him out for the last three matches, and should be in the matchday squad to face the Cherries.

While he is back in the mix, Martin Odegaard has sustained a fresh knock that will keep him out of the weekend encounter at the Emirates.
