Arsenal are interested in signing the Lyon attacker Rayan Cherki at the end of the season, and they will face competition from Manchester City.
The 21-year-old has been linked with the move away from the outfit at the end of the season, and a move to Arsenal could be interesting for him. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies.
The player has been linked with Manchester United in recent weeks. The French attacker is on the radar of Liverpool as well.
Arsenal could use more creativity and goals in the midfield as well, and the 21-year-old could be a long-term investment for them. He could be available for a fee of around £20 million in the summer.
Cherki has established himself as one of the best young players in French football, and he has the technical attributes to do well in England as well. Legendary France manager Guy Roux has described him as a player who “never makes mistakes”.
Man City keen on Rayan Cherki
As per Fichajes, Manchester City are keen on securing his signature as well, and it will be interesting to see if they can get the deal done.
The player has 12 goals and 18 assists to his name in all competitions this season, and he has impressed in the Europa League as well. He could establish himself as a player for Arsenal or Manchester City if he joins either of them.
Manchester City will be without Kevin De Bruyne next season, and the Belgian is leaving the club in the summer. They need to replace him adequately, and the French midfielder could be the ideal replacement.
The player will look to test himself at a higher level, and moving to the Premier League could be ideal for him at this stage of his career. Regular football in England could help him develop further and fulfil his world-class potential.

Qarabag vs Chelsea: Champions League preview, team news, kick-off time
Chelsea return to Champions League action when they face Qarabag on Wednesday night in Azerbaijan. Enzo Maresca's side make the trip to Baku for matchday four in the Champions League, with Chelsea looking to claim a third consecutive victory in the competition. After opening matchday defeat to Bayern Munich, Chelsea have bounced back with wins over Benfica and Ajax to put them in a healthy position heading into Wednesday's clash against Qarabag. Qarabag have also started positively in the Champions League this term. They won their opening two games against Benfica and Copenhagen, before narrowly losing 3-1 to Athletic Bilbao last time out. Chelsea and Qarabag have met previously in the Champions League during the 2017/18 season, which saw the Blues win both home and away group fixtures by an aggregate score of 10-0. Maresca's side will be keen to make it three consecutive wins over Qarabag, which will see Joao Pedro return from suspension after his red card vs Benfica. Following Chelsea's 1-0 win over Spurs in the Premier League, Maresca is likely to ring the changes once again, offering opportunities to the likes of Filip Jorgensen, Jorrel Hato and Tyrique George to likely start. Enzo Fernandez is relishing a return to European action. When previewing Wednesday's clash to Chelsea's in-house media team, he said: "We're ready. We love playing in the Champions League. Last year, we fought hard to get there, and now we have that opportunity, so every match is very important for us." Levi Colwill, Benoit Badiashile, Dario Essugo and Cole Palmer remain sidelined. Liam Delap could feature after serving his one-match league suspension against Spurs on Saturday. Here are all of the details ahead of the Champions League clash between Qarabag and Chelsea.

Chargers-Jets Linked In Unexpected Last-Minute Trade Deadline Buzz
The New York Jets are expected to be active at the trade deadline this season. They've already moved cornerback Michael Carter II, but they could have two or three more trades come together before Tuesday's trade deadline. The Jets have plenty of trade candidates like Breece Hall, Quincy Williams, and Allen Lazard. But there's also one potential trade candidate on their roster that nobody seems to be talking about. Thomas Martinez of Los Angeles Chargers OnSi recently suggested the Jets could trade backup offensive tackle Max Mitchell to the Los Angeles Chargers after Joe Alt's crushing ankle injury. Backup Jets OT Max Mitchell could be a trade candidate for the Chargers "Disaster struck in the second quarter as former Chargers defensive lineman Sebastian Joseph-Day took and outside rush lane on right tackle Trey Pipkins. Unfortunately, Titans edge rusher Jihad Ward also took a wide outside rush working against left tackle Joe Alt," Martinez wrote. "Both Titans defenders met at the top of the arc as Justin Herbert stepped up in the pocket. Joseph-Day violently crashed into Alt's legs as he was engaged with Ward. Joe Alt was carted off the field with a reaggravation of his injured ankle. "No, not Breece Hall. The Chargers need offensive line help. Chargers assistant general manager Chad Alexander was the Jets director of player personnel for five seasons before joining the Chargers. He was on the staff when the Jets drafted offensive tackle Max Mitchell in the fourth round of 2022. The Jets have a pair of young talented tackles ahead of Mitchell on the depth chart." Mitchell isn't a star, but he could plug a hole and fill a role for the Chargers. They desperately need to find an offensive tackle to replace Alt for the time being and Mitchell would be one of the easiest players to trade for in the league. It would likely cost the Chargers a late round pick swap, if that, to land the offensive lineman. Mitchell could be used as a depth piece for the Chargers when Alt returns, but he would be a crucial piece for the time being. It's an idea that hasn't been mentioned much, but it could certainly work if the Chargers are desperate enough.
Packers linked to trade for former All-Pro to replace Kenny Clark
The Packers could look to upgrade the defense ahead of the NFL trade deadline at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, especially after Panthers running back Rico Dowdle paved the way to Carolina upsetting Green Bay Sunday afternoon at Lambeau Field. Dowdle’s 130 yards and two touchdowns was the catalyst to an upset win over the Packers, but also served to further expose one of Green Bay’s most glaring weaknesses along the front seven. Could Packers trade for Calais Campbell? If general manager Brian Gutekunst is working the phones in hopes of replacing the run-stuffing interior lineman the Packers traded away in Kenny Clark as part of the Micah Parsons blockbuster this past summer, Calais Campbell could be an ideal fit. Ahead of Tuesday’s deadline, Pro Football Focus lists the Packers as one of Campbell’s best fits and possible trade destinations. "Even at 39, Campbell has still been an above-average player for the Cardinals this season," Bradley Locker writes for PFF. "He’s on track for a 15th straight year with a 71.0-plus overall PFF grade, and has been a well-rounded addition for Arizona’s new-look defense. Campbell has generated 11 pressures while also producing a 70.0 PFF run-defense grade. "The Cardinals’ promising start has taken a wayward turn for the worst, one that doesn’t seem especially salvageable. With Campbell at his age and on a one-year deal, shipping him away — particularly to pave the way for playing time for younger players — could be logical. Kansas City’s 28.8 run-defense grade by interior defenders is the lowest in the NFL, and a reunion in Jacksonville isn’t out of the question." So far this season, Campbell — who boasts 113.5 sacks through 18 seasons — has three sacks and 5.5 tackles for loss. He is still playing at a high level despite his advanced age and the trajectory of the Cardinals’ 2025 campaign. Arizona’s season has quickly fallen off a cliff, but Campbell could have the chance to chase a Super Bowl ring if the Packers pull off a trade. He would immediately become a key piece along defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley’s front seven.
Washington Commanders Quarterback Jayden Daniels Suffers a Devastating Injury
Washington Commanders Head Coach Dan Quinn stood at the podium Monday afternoon, ready to take accountability. He didn’t dance around it, didn’t make excuses, didn’t try to spin it. He owned it completely. “I get that. I’ve been thinking about it nonstop, too, and, man, I missed it,” Quinn said. “That is 100 percent on me.” What Quinn “missed” was pulling Jayden Daniels from Sunday night’s blowout loss to Seattle before his franchise quarterback’s left elbow bent in ways elbows aren’t supposed to bend. With the Commanders trailing 38-7 and just over seven minutes left in the fourth quarter, Daniels scrambled right and got absolutely planted by Seahawks Linebacker Drake Thomas at the 4-yard line. The result? A dislocated elbow has Daniels out indefinitely. The Game Plan That Went Sideways Here’s the thing that makes this whole situation sting even more. Quinn actually had a plan. He explained that the possession where Daniels got hurt was supposed to be the last one for him and other key starters like Tight End Zach Ertz and Left Tackle Laremy Tunsil. They were going to keep things vanilla. But here’s what Quinn didn’t account for: Daniels being, well, Daniels. “We weren’t going to have any read-run plays, meaning no carries for the quarterback on a run,” Quinn explained. “And honestly, man, that’s where I missed it. Of course, he can scramble. He’s Jayden. It’s what he’s special at.” And there it is. The cruel irony of the situation. The very thing that makes Daniels special—his ability to extend plays, to turn nothing into something—is exactly what got him hurt in a game that was already decided. When Bad Gets Worse If you’re keeping score at home, Daniels’ injury is just the latest gut punch in what’s become a season from hell. The reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year had already missed time with a hamstring injury and sat out Weeks 3 and 4 with a knee issue. Now this. But wait, there’s more! Cornerback Marshon Lattimore tore his ACL and is done for the season. Wide Receiver Luke McCaffrey broke his collarbone on the opening kickoff. The list of players on injured reserve reads like a depth chart: Austin Ekeler, Deatrich Wise Jr., Dorance Armstrong, Will Harris, and Noah Brown. Terry McLaurin has missed five games with a quad injury. At 3-6, the Commanders aren’t just dealing with injuries—they’re being systematically dismantled by them. The Accountability That Matters Look, coaches say “that’s on me” all the time. It has become such a cliché that it often rings hollow. But listening to Quinn on Monday, you could hear the genuine pain in his voice. This wasn’t some rehearsed PR speak. This was a coach who knows he screwed up and has to live with the consequences. Marcus Mariota will now get the start against the Detroit Lions on Sunday, which feels like throwing a life preserver to someone while you’re both already underwater. Mariota is a solid backup, but he’s not Daniels. Nobody is. The decision to leave Daniels in wasn’t malicious. Quinn wasn’t trying to run up the score or make some statement. He just wanted to give his guys one more series. But in football, as in life, good intentions
