Here are the Arsenal morning headlines for Tuesday 30 June.
The gunners identify the replacement of Aubameyang
Arsenal will launch a move for Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst if Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang leaves the Emirates this summer, according to the German outlet Image.
The Gunners face a tough decision about Aubamayang’s future. Without a contract in 2021, the club can cash in on Gabon International this summer or risk losing it for nothing in 12 months.
The former appears more likely and if Aubameyang leaves, Arsenal could attempt to sign Weghorst, which would cost around £ 32 million.
The 27-year-old has impressed in his two years at Wolfsburg, scoring 33 goals in 66 Bundesliga games, and is also monitored by Newcastle United.

Trippier issues a verdict on Arsenal Partey’s target
Arsenal’s target Thomas Partey “would fit perfectly” in the Premier League, according to Atletico Madrid teammate and former Tottenham defender Kieran Trippier.
The Gunners have long been linked to a summer move for the Ghanaian international, whose current contract contains a £ 45 million release clause.
Trippier spent this season playing alongside Partey after joining Athletes last summer. And the British international was hugely impressed by the 27-year-old midfielder.
“I had seen him play for Atletico but I didn’t realize how good he was,” said Atletico right back The beautiful gaming podcast. “It’s incredible, his physicality, the way he stops the game. Technically he has it all.
“He ranks as one of the best midfielders I’ve played with, but Mousa [Dembele] it’s Mousa and it’s on another planet. Even in training he was in control of cruising speed. ”
Trippier added: “Obviously everyone is watching the Premier League. He (Partey) simply asks how it is, the style of play, but few players have. It doesn’t mean they’ll leave anyway!
“These are just a few players who play in the league, as it is and I only say. The Premier League is the Premier League and it is one of the best leagues in the world. Thomas will fit perfectly into the Premier League.”
Arsenal have the option of replacing Ramsey
When Aaron Ramsey left for Juventus last summer, Arsenal lost an influential part of his team and a goal threat in midfield.
Dani Ceballos, who joined Real Madrid on loan for the season, was unable to fill the void left by the Welshman, and the Gunners are unlikely to make his move permanent this summer.
However, Arsenal have to improve the midfield. And in the Red Bull Salzburg star Dominik Szoboszlai may have identified Ramsey’s ideal replacement.
