According to sources who spoke to TEAMtalk, Arsenal remain strongly favored to sign Igor Tyjon.

Alan Nixon reports on his Patreon page that Arsenal have made their fourth bid for Igor Tyjon of Blackburn Rovers, offering just over £1m for a deadline-day transfer. The bid is Arsenal’s fourth for Tyjon and their second of the January transfer window. Just days ago, Arsenal bid in the region of £1m for the striker, but Rovers rejected the deal. The Gunners also had two seven-figure bids for Tyjon rejected last summer. According to the report, Arsenal’s latest offer is not for any more than they were bidding last year, but the difference is that Tyjon now has less than six months on his contract and no desire to extend it. James McNicholas had recently reported for The Athletic that Tyjon is still of interest to the Gunners, adding that the forward could potentially move in January after turning down a professional contract with his current club.

Alan Nixon reports that Blackburn Rovers are now more willing to sell Igor Tyjon. The Gunners had at least two formal offers of £1m or more for Tyjon rejected over the summer, and Rovers offered him a new professional contract. According to Nixon, Rovers’ stance has changed since then. As Tyjon’s contract expires in 2026, the club may now opt to sell him. Rovers also stopped giving Tyjon first-team opportunities as it became more apparent that he did not intend to extend his contract. It is likely that Arsenal will continue to have an interest in Tyjon ahead of the January window.
