Plenty of Arsenal news doing the rounds today (29th July) so I've done a quick thread to keep you guys up to date just in case you missed any Arsenal news today.

If you're an Arsenal fan, please give this a read as it'll inform you on all the latest Arsenal news.
. @David_Ornstein: “Mikel Arteta has made this very clear, I think Arsenal are a very attractive proposition whether they’re in Europe or not & they certainly have a vision to get back there & that’s what lots of players will buy in to.”
Philippe Coutinho to Arsenal is close. ( @AlexisBernard10)
Arsenal are best placed to sign Coutinho. Kia Joorabchian, who has great relationship with Raul Sanllehí, has been negotiating with the London club. ( @mundodeportivo)
Arsenal could firm up interest in Porto's Danilo Pereira if Atletico Madrid refuse to soften their stance over Thomas Partey this summer. ( @charles_watts)
Arsenal are aware that Thomas Partey has a €50 million (£44m/$54m) release clause in his current contract with Atletico, but a combination of the coronavirus pandemic and failure to qualify for the Champions League means that money is exceptionally tight. ( @charles_watts)
Simeone is desperate to keep hold of Partey and wants him to sign a new contract.

But Atletico are also struggling financially due to the ongoing pandemic and @oal has been told that they are not currently in a position to push ahead with the contract extension at this time
Joelson Fernandes can become a free agent when he turns 18 if he decides not to renew his contract with Sporting Lisbon which seems very likely at the moment. Arsenal could submit a €15m offer for him. ( @tvi24pt)
Arsenal, Manchester United, Napoli and Paris Saint Germain have all made contact with Lille to sign Gabriel Maghaeles because the centre half could be available for a bargain price. ( @MirrorFootball)
Aston Villa won't sell Jack Grealish for less than £80m. Arsenal are one of the clubs who registered an interest in signing him. The interest was not followed up. ( @SkyKaveh)
Skysports journalist @SkyKaveh on Jack Grealish: “What we found this afternoon is that Arsenal are one of the clubs who registered an interest in signing him. That’s what we’re being told. Arsenal asked about him, asked about how much potentially a deal would cost.”
Brazil legend Rivaldo “It is difficult to see Coutinho in Barca again. The best option for him is to return to England, because it’s a league suitable for his style. He can play for Arsenal, Leicester or Tottenham and prove that he is a world class player”
Alphonso Davies on his 5 best fullbacks in the world: "Hakimi is one of them. I really like how Benji [Pavard] plays, scoring goals & getting assists, so those two. Trent Alexander-Arnold definitely and I really like Saka from Arsenal. He's a really good player" ( @90min_Football)
Pep Guardiola on Mikel Arteta: "Maybe I learned more from him than he did from me. It was a joy to be with him, I learned a lot. And all the nice things that are going to happen to him, we will be happy"
Mikel Arteta is looking to make additions to his coaching set-up before the new season. ( @beINSPORTS)
Arteta's fines system, an idea used at City, has added some fun to the process of instilling discipline. When flight issues delayed Joe Willock's return from a quick trip to Paris, Arteta insisted he take his teammates out for dinner and foot the bill. ( @MailSport)
Some of Arteta's players have welcomed his approach when it comes to Guendouzi having grown frustrated with the antics the midfielder was able to get away with under Unai Emery. ( @MailSport)
His players have been just as impressed with Arteta as the non-playing staff, his knowledge and enthusiasm for the game and especially his attention to detail, described as 'second to none.'

One of his players considers him [Arteta], simply, a genius. ( @MailSport)
Arteta is big on video analysis too. On journeys to and from matches, he is quick to fire up his laptop to review match footage or plan for ones to come and known to have players sit alongside him at the front while they go through games and the players' involvement together.
FA Cup winners will NOT climb famous Wembley steps to receive the trophy due to Covid-19 concerns with either Chelsea or Arsenal set to be presented the cup on the pitch. ( @MailSport)
