Arsenal's next game will be an EFL Cup clash against West Brom and travel away to the Etihad to face Premier League champions Man City at the Etihad.

And if the Gunners decide to part ways with the Spanish gaffer, the club will turn the attention to former Chelsea manager Conte.

Conte is currently without a job after being relieved of his duties weeks after helping Inter reclaim the Serie A title.

After the clash at the Etihad, the Gunners will face newly-promoted Norwich City before taking on Burnley at Turf Moor, then the crunchy north London derby against Tottenham at the Emirates.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng had earlier reported that Thomas Tuchel has been waxing lyrical about his new summer signing Romelu Lukaku after making a scoring debut in Chelsea colours, Mirror.

The Belgian striker opened his account for the season in the 14th minute in the 2-0 win over Arsenal at the Emirates.

And the 28-year-old was a thorn in the flesh for Gunners defenders and midfielders as Lukaku's physical presence held them off on several occasions.

Legit.ng had also reported that former Nigerian Senator Dino Melaye has trolled Premier League Arsenal following their poor form at the start of the 2021-22 Premier League season.

The 47-year-old Nigerian politician took to his official Facebook Page to mock Arsenal who have now lost two of their opening league games this season.

Brentford on Friday night, August 13, sent big signal to Premier League clubs in their debut season as they produced impressive performance to beat Arsenal 2-0 at the Community Stadium.
