Arsenal are one of the favorites to win the Premier League this season. Mikel Arteta's team has played its best football this season and continues to be the talk of the town. Without a doubt, the Gunners are favorites to win the Premier League title this season. In light of this, this has the team's fans extremely excited who expect a joy from their team.

Despite having fallen in the Carabao Cup, the team's distraction is nil. Everything seems to indicate that Arsenal's main objectives are the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League. At the moment, the Gunners look like the leaders of their group in the Champions League. Meanwhile, the team is in second place in the Premier League and is dangerously close to Tottenham

On the other hand, the situation of Arsenal and Chelsea is totally different. Despite the fact that both are considered extremely important teams in England, Chelsea have not achieved the results obtained. For this reason, the situation of Mauricio Pochettino's team is complicated at the moment. Even the team's performance has been constantly criticized by the media.

In light of this, many are questioning why the team has failed to lift despite spending almost £400m on signings. One of the most criticized, without a doubt, has been Mikhailo Mudryk. The Ukrainian arrived at Stamford Bridge last season and until this season the striker was able to score a goal. It should be noted that at the time, a large amount was paid for Mudryk. Now, Chelsea want to shell out a hefty amount for a player again, and Arsenal could be among the competition.

According to Sky Sports, Brentford have reportedly told Arsenal and Chelsea that the amount to be paid for Ivan Toney is £100m. However, there would be an exception for Arsenal considered as a discount. As per reports, due to the good commercial relationship between Brentford and Gunners, Mikel Arteta's team would only have to pay £80m for the English midfielder.
