Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is preparing to permanently part company with as many as five players this summer as he clears his decks for new recruits ahead of the 2023/24 campaign.
Arteta has shown he's a shrewd operator in the transfer window since taking the reins from Unai Emery and hasn't been afraid to part company with players he felt weren't pulling their weight.
Mesut Ozil, Matteo Guendouzi and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang were all high-profile exits at the Emirates as Arteta replaced them with individuals he felt better suited to the way in which he wants his Gunners side to play.
