Arsenal could sign ‘unbelievable’ player who was furious with Ben White during USA pre-season tour on deadline day
Arsenal are almost certain to make at least one new signing on deadline day.
The Gunners could still do with a few additions in the coming hours, and Edu Gaspar has cancelled his travel plans to conduct late busineꦍss at the Emirates.
Arsenal fans are hoping for a new attacker before the window shuts, but the m🧔ost likely signing will be that of a goalkeeper to replace Aaron Ramsdale, who has officiallওy joined Southampton.
Bournemouth star Neto has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal.
Why Arsenal target Neto was angry with Ben White in pre-season
Arsenal have reached an agreement to sign Neto on a season-long loan deal.
The Gunners need a backup for David Raya in goal, and after failing to strike a deal for Joan Garcia, they have turned to the Bournemouth captain🃏.
Neto travelled to London for his Arsenal medical this morning, and if things go to plan, he will be announced as 🧸the Gunne🀅rs’ latest signing.
Once that’s done, there could be an awkward meeting between Neto and Ben White behind the scenes at the Emirates.
The two players have locked horns in the past. After Reiss Nelson’s dramatic late winner against Bournemouth in March 2023, White celebrated in front of Neto’s face.
Then, during Ar𒁃senal’s pre-season tour of the United S✨tates this summer, White and Neto were at it once again in a friendly in Los Angeles.
The Arsenal man was up to his usual antics during a 🎶set-piece. He was trying to block Neto, and the ‘‘ Brazilian was visibly angry,
Once the ball became dead an🌠d the Englishman was heading back, Neto, claims, “immediately charged towards White before shoving him”.

Why are Arsenal signing Neto?
Neto was by no means Arsenal’s preferred target on deadl✤ine day.
The Guꦿnners were definitely in the market for a new goalkeeper, ꦡbut the player Arsenal and Mikel Arteta wanted was Garcia of Espanyol.
Fabrizio Romano revealed that after two rejected bids on Thursday, Ars𓂃enal’s plan was to table a new offer on Friday🐻 morning for Garcia.
The journalist revealed that if that turned out to be unsuccessful too, Neto ♓would be the playe🅘r they would sign on a season-long loan deal.
As things stand, it looks like Arsenal have given up on Garcia and will be s༺i๊gning Neto.
