Since then, he has gone on to establish himself as a first team regular for Empoli, making 26 appearances in all competitions this season. Calciomercato suggest that the Hammers may be looking at the 20-year-old as a potential replacement for Declan Rice.

Aubameyang moved on a free transfer to Barcelona on deadline day, leaving it very late for the Gunners to bring in reinforcements, but Lang says he was being lined up for a switch to the Emirates:

Edinson Cavani is expected to leave as a free agent when his deal expires, and the 35-year-old is allegedly closing in on a return to South America with Boca Juniors.
