🚨 Arsenal set-piece coach Nico Jover’s contract contains a “set-piece goal bonus” clause. Smart piece of negotiating - and after a record-equalling 16th goal from a corner, #AFC will be paying out gladly. Exclusive for @TheAthleticFC ⬇️ nytimes.com/athletic/7080468…

🔜 Eddie Howe on the prospect of January incomings... 🗣️ "The problem for us is PSR. No one is saying we can't do this or can't do that. The key thing to consider is business now versus business in the summer. Value for money now, value for money in the summer, signing the right player. If you sign the wrong player, you’re carrying that for a three, four, five-year contract. Are the right players available in January? There's a lot to discuss & a lot to consider for our short-term need against the long-term decision for the football club"
