LONDON (AP) — Arsenal kicked off 2025 with a 3-1 win over Brentford to move back into second place in the Premier League on Wednesday. Mikel Arteta’s team shook off a slow start at Gtech Community Stadium to leapfrog Nottingham Forest and pull within six points of league leader Liverpool, which has a game in hand.

We are already past the first week of the midseason business period for European soccer clubs, but when is transfer deadline day?

The number of clubs yoyoing between the top and second tiers of English football has never been higher, leading some to speculate that the Premier League is all but a closed shop now, but is this the case?
