Newcastle United has reportedly expressed interest in Arsenal midfielder Emile Smith Rowe, who has been struggling to secure playing time at the Emirates.
Injuries have plagued Smith Rowe for several seasons, leading to his absence from the Arsenal first team. During his time on the treatment table, the club has acquired some talented midfielders who have performed well, making it challenging for Smith Rowe to regain his place in the team.
Some pundits have suggested that Smith Rowe should consider finding a new club, and a report from the Daily Mail indicates that Newcastle United is keen on acquiring the midfielder. Newcastle is in the process of assembling a group of talented English players, and working under Eddie Howe, one of England’s top young coaches, could be a valuable development opportunity for Smith Rowe.
However, it’s worth noting that Arsenal is currently closer to winning a trophy than Newcastle, and Smith Rowe may wish to give himself more time to compete for a spot in the Arsenal first team.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Smith Rowe is a very good talent, but he will struggle to get back inside our team, considering the quality of midfielders we have signed.
He probably should take the chance at Newcastle to rebuild his career and reputation, and they are also a very big club.

Having made the decision to stay put in the summer, it may not be such a great idea jumping ship now.
Surely the purchase of Havertz has severely limited the young Englishman involvement
Not impress with the Management of Smith Rowe so far in the new campaign, have seen numerous occasions where his involvement would have been perfect.
Gunsmoke, you and me both. Too bad ESR wasn’t a Chelsea player and Arteta needed to pay £65 million for him, instead of being a Hale End product costing next to nothing.
Newcastle, Aston Villa or other EPL clubs would get a potentially great midfielder in ESR. He has been injury free since before playing for England, but has had limited playing time. Why should he stay?
Ozziegunner- I can’t argue against him leaving, One thing for sure if Smith Rowe should join Brighton in January, he will be a £100 million player in the summer.
But the gaffer wants no eggs on his face so the kid will rust.
I am well known as an MA supporter. But I do not agree with how ESR is disgracefully maginalised.
MA is making a big mistake IMO!
Spot on Jon.Arteta just does not seem to realize the gem of a player ESR could be given the opportunity.
Well said Jon Fox
I have always had this gut feeling of E.S.R. looking good and playing with style in wearing a Newcastle shirt. The club has a wonderful tradition. Before anyone accuses me of disloyalty my second favorite team are Sunderland and they are not even close to how I feel about Arsenal. These days it’s just a matter of me remembering to look up which division they are in from time to time. Anyway back to Smith Rowe playing at St James’. He would suit their style and would also improve under Eddie H. who would appreciate the type of plyer he is and help him along. It’s a scenario that disgusts me to be honest but it is what it is.. Arteta is currently destroying our boys career.
If Smith-Rowe thinks someone like Kai Harvertz is too good to displace, then he must surely move on to another team. I feel Arsenal wasted a lot of money on Havertz, who’s up to this point failed to justify his own acquisition and cost. Frankly even the timing of his acquisition was totally off, when the money could’ve been used on a striker.
