Last five players who joined Arsenal from Chelsea
1. Kai Havertz
The German attacker was the last player to move between the two clubs on a permanent basis. He left Chelsea after three successful seasons where he scored or assisted in the finals of the three trophies won, including the 2021 UEFA Champions League final. He has blended in seamlessly at North London and scored twice in the 5-0 win over his former club in April.
2. Jorginho
Jorginho spent four-and-half seasons at Chelsea and formed a midfield trio with N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic, helping the club win multiple trophies. As noted by premierleague.com, he joined Arsenal on the deadline day of January 2023 and has been a fringe player but steps up when called upon.
3. Willian
The Brazilian joined Arsenal in the summer of 2020 to win the UEFA Champions League, a trophy the Blues won for the second time in 2021. He was shipped out at Arsenal after one year. He joined his boyhood club Corinthians then returned to England with Fulham but is currently without a club.
4. David Luiz
The entertaining defender had two spells at Chelsea but was finally pushed out by manager and former teammate Frank Lampard in 2019. He moved to North London and won the FA Cup in 2020 against his former club. He moved to Brazil with Flamengo in 2021.
5. Petr Cech
The Chelsea legend moved to Arsenal in 2014 after 10 years at Stamford Bridge. He spent five seasons at the Emirates Stadium, winning two FA Cups. As noted by BBC Sports, his final game for the Gunners was the 4-1 2019 Europa League loss to Chelsea, where he returned to as technical director after the match.
EPL offer on clarity Declan Rice's red card
YEN.com.gh also reported that the Premier League has announced that Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice received a second yellow card for delaying the restart during the 1-1 draw against Brighton.
Rice was infuriated after being sent off in an unusual manner in the match at the Emirates.
After receiving a booking for a late tackle in the first half, the Gunners star seemed to kick the ball away during a confrontation with Joel Veltman.
