Transfer deals and social media: what a time to be alive.

Petr Cech has been linked with a move to Arsenal from Chelsea all summer long, and people who are looking for any sign of activity on that front will cling on to any hope.

How about the club's photographer starting to follow him on Twitter?

But no, all he was doing was the same anyone would do on social media: expanding his list of follows.

Amazingly, he had to issue a denial that he had any inside information:

"

Funny people think I know what's going on with transfers, just a photographer. I'm an Arsenal fan like you and follow all the media rubbish

Glad that's cleared up, then.
