Arsenal are expected to pin their focus on departures before the transfer window slams shut on September 1 – with seven first-players ready to be let go in the process
Arsenal have been one of the busiest Premier League clubs this summer – but are set to focus the final nine days of the transfer window on outgoings.
The Gunners have spent around £200million on new players in Declan Rice, Jurrien Timber, David Raya and Kai Havertz – the second most in English football behind Chelsea. Although Mikel Arteta could add more to his squad, his focus is set to be on departures before the end of the window.
Folarin Balogun, Kieran Tierney and Albert Sambi Lokonga are among those that could leave the Gunners before the September 1 deadline. Meanwhile, Cedric Soares and Nicolas Pepe are also facing uncertain futures after failing to feature at Arsenal so far this term.
With that in mind, here are the latest rumours from the Emirates Stadium.
