Players Who Might Leave Arsenal Revealed

Anaedoonline.com recalls that Aubameyang is facing an uncertain future at Arsenal. The Gabon international’s current contract at Emirates will run out in the summer of 2021.

“Mikel Arteta wants five or six out, and he wants that money to rebuild. If nothing more is in the pot, sell to rebuild,” Nicholas told Sporting Life.

“If you are doing that as a financial package, you are not buying to replace Aubameyang.

“You can get rid of Shkodran Mustafi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who has been out on loan. This will all help to filter through, so there are easy things to do.

“Give him what he wants, get rid of the deadwood, you have the kids, and it would not cost £200m to challenge for the top four once more.

“My preference would be to offer Aubameyang what he wants. Everyone will flag up his wages. I have been told differing scenarios, especially with Mesut Ozil.”

Aubameyang has scored 61 goals in 97 games for Arsenal so far.

Anaedoonline.com reported that Former Arsenal player, Perry Groves, also told Mikel Arteta to get rid of up to nine players this summer.

This follows the Gunners’ shocking exit from the Europa League in the round of 32.

Arsenal won 1-0 at Olympiacos and were favourites to qualify, but lost 2-1 to the Greek side in the reverse fixture.

Groves admits it won’t be easy to get rid of almost an entire lineup of players, but feels it would be the best decision.

“He needs to get rid of players. I thought it would be five or six, but I think you’re looking up to about nine players. [But] It is going to be impossible to get rid of them all in one go.

“This isn’t about talent, it’s not that they are not good players David Luiz, (Shkrodan) Mustafi, Sokratis, (Dani) Ceballos is going to go anyway as he is on loan, Ozil, (Granit) Xhaka, (Calum) Chambers, (Mohamed) Elneny and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

“Mkhitaryan and Elneny are out on loan at this point anyway,” he told talkSPORT.

Arsenal are currently in ninth place in the Premier League, seven points off fourth-place Chelsea.
