On August 21, 2026, Arsenal reached an agreement with Blackburn Rovers to sign 18-year-old academy striker Igor Tyjon, concluding months of negotiations. This development followed Tyjon's reported refusal to sign a professional contract at Ewood Park on August 19, a move seen as a significant step towards forcing his transfer after Arsenal had multiple bids rejected. Earlier, on August 18, Tyjon had formally asked Blackburn Rovers to de-register him amid speculation over his future, a case expected to be taken to an independent panel. Arsenal had maintained their pursuit of the highly-rated teenager for over a year, with Blackburn rejecting several approaches for him. Separately, on August 14, Celtic reportedly made progress in their pursuit of Blackburn Rovers goalkeeper Balázs Tóth, with discussions between the clubs advancing as Celtic aimed to strengthen their options in goal.
