Arsenal are staring down the barrel of a difficult road to the 2025 Champions League final, featuring a few of the best clubs in the world. The Gunners wrapped up their impressive Champions League league phase campaign with a 1–2 victory over Girona to finish third in the standings.

PSV Eindhoven have signed former Arsenal striker Lucas Perez until the end of the season, the Dutch club said on Sunday, just over a week before they host the London club in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie.

Lucas Perez has joined Arsenal’s Champions League round of 16 opponents PSV Eindhoven on a free transfer. The former Arsenal striker had been a free agent for a short amount of time after seeing his contract with boyhood club Deportivo La Coruna terminated for personal reasons in January.
