The Foxes are now drawing up a list of potential replacements for Tielemans, as they await a bid from Arsenal. That benching came as reports that the Gunners would return with a fresh move for the midfielder emerged. Leicester are bracing to receive a bid from Arsenal for Youri Tielemans in the final days of the summer window. Here, Mirror Football rounds up the latest [Arsenal](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/arsenal-fc) news. Zinchenko hailed Saliba for his "incredible" start to the season and urged him to keep those performances up. He scored a superb second-half goal to wrap up the three points for Arteta's men, with a brilliant looped shot. [Read the full story here.](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/arsenal-william-saliba-oleksandr-zinchenko-27795250) Oleksandr Zinchenko has hailed William Saliba after the defender put in another impressive performance for Arsenal. According to Redknapp though, Arteta made the perfect decision when selecting his new leader on the pitch. His crowning performance came on Saturday at the Vitality Stadium when he scored a brace to help the Gunners defeat Bournemouth. [Read the full story here.](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/arsenal-arteta-plan-odegaard-saliba-27793140) So far, the Norwegian has led his side to three successive wins since taking on the role permanently.

Jürgen Klopp has phenomenal talent at his disposal in the Liverpool squad, but he must emulate Sir Alex Ferguson — and now Arsenal — in order to utilise it.

Elliott, too, was one of the [main bright sparks](https://www.liverpool.com/liverpool-fc-news/features/liverpool-transfer-midfield-jurgen-klopp-24767442). These young and hungry players all have the talent to make a difference now. It is easy to write this off as a different era. [exceptional individual display](https://www.liverpool.com/liverpool-fc-news/features/trent-alexander-arnold-liverpool-klopp-24765229), and can rightly feel let down by some of his senior colleagues. This is not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but the contrast is marked. That performance was dire, and Liverpool fielded both Elliott and Núñez from the off against Crystal Palace. But in the season opener, only one of these players started. It is not as though Klopp does not have young talent to call upon. Meanwhile, at the right end of the table, Arsenal are the early pace-setters. But that does not mean there are no lessons to be learned from the bright start being made in North London. It would be far too premature to write Arsenal into the title race. As Liverpool prepare to take on Manchester United at Old Trafford, the days of Sir Alex Ferguson seem very distant.

The Scotland international was once viewed as a future Arsenal captain but has been overlooked for the role this season.

To that point, Tierney was once a popular choice amongst many Gunners fans to be captain, having been earmarked for Arteta's main role in the future. Interestingly, this was on show at the Vitality Stadium as all three wore the armband at one stage against Bournemouth.

However, recent developments could finally settle the Belgian's future.

But with the likes of Lucas Torreira, Bernd Leno and Pablo Mari having left, and Nicolas Pepe edging towards an exit, the club's transfer chiefs can look at bringing in new players again. The Gunners have won their first three matches of the Premier League season but Arteta is not content yet.

None of them are for sale but I know how the game works. "I don't know," Rodgers added afterwards when asked about the futures of his players. "And two, I mentioned it in the week about coming into a Premier League game with players that maybe aren't quite in the right frame of mind.

On Saturday, he added his second and third of the season in a 3-1 win over Aston Villa. In the final two weeks of the summer transfer window, Mikel Arteta could reignite the club's interest in a former target to solidify their title credentials. His exit could nudge Arsenal to pursue a winger before the September 1 transfer deadline amid links to Wolves' Pedro Neto and Villarreal's Yeremy Pino. Crystal Palace forward Wilfried Zaha has been heavily linked with the Gunners after returning to Selhurst Park from Manchester United in 2015. But £72million flop Nicolas Pepe looks set to end his miserable stint at the Emirates Stadium by joining Nice on a season-long loan. The Gunners' 3-0 dismantling of AFC Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium secured three successive wins to start a campaign for the first time since 2004.
