When the transfer market reopens, Arsenal is preparing to get rid of a few deadwood players
Since taking over as the team’s boss, Mikel Arteta has frequently changed the squad at the Emirates. He is constantly on the lookout for fresh talent, and the Gunners offload players who are no longer needed.
Since the Londoners are getting ready to compete in the Champions League for the first time since 2017, the upcoming transfer season won’t be much different.
According to a story in The Sun, Arsenal plans to offload a number of players, including Alex Runarsson, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Albert Sambi-Lokonga, Nuno Tavares, Pablo Mari, and Nicolas Pepe.
None of these players, who are presently on loan from the club, has performed well enough to secure a spot at the Emirates for the upcoming season. Change is unavoidable as we rise to the summit of the league, so we can appreciate the gaffer’s desire to retain only the best players.
The last thing Mikel Arteta needs right now is to retain players who will undo the hard work he has put into changing the culture at the Emirates. When we get rid of these duds, we can bring in some fresh faces who will make strong team leaders.
