The Premier League action returns for Arsenal over the weekend as they play host to rivals Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners will need three points to keep up the pressure on league leaders Liverpool – following their victory over Bournemouth.

So with that said, here’s a look at the biggest news ahead of the day.
Arsenal block Jorginho transfer exit
Arsenal star Jorginho faces an uncertain future as he has only five months remaining on his contract at the club.
As of January, the midfielder can agree to a pre-contract deal with teams abroad, which could confirm his next move.
However, plenty of links have surrounded his steps after the Gunners, should he leave, not least with a possible switch in the current transfer window.
According to Globo, Arsenal have blocked a possible transfer to Brazilian outfit Flamengo before the end of the market.
It remains to be seen whether a new contract could be offered to Jorginho, though an exit seems the most likely.
