Arsenal Director Andrea Berta sparks João Pedro transfer talk after Chelsea clash

Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta has sparked speculation after appearing to wait for Chelsea forward João Pedro following Sunday’s 2-1 defeat at the Emirates. According to Tribuna.com, footage circulating online showed Berta approaching the Brazilian striker for a brief conversation after the London derby.

João Pedro played the full match but could not prevent Chelsea from suffering their first defeat of the season. The encounter has attracted attention because Arsenal were linked with several attacking players during the summer but ultimately signed no major forward before the transfer deadline. However, there is currently no confirmation that their conversation concerned a potential transfer.
