Arsenal will be hoping to improve their sales record in the upcoming transfer windows after failing to receive a significant fee for one of their exits in 2021. Arsenal have sold just one player for more than £20 million in the past five transfer windows.
Joe Willock was sold by Arsenal to Newcastle in a figure that could rise to around £25 million. In 2022, the highest fee received for a player was the €11m (£9.5m) that the Gunners received for Matteo Guendouzi from Marseille after an obligation to buy clause was triggered in his loan agreement football.london understands.
Many players left for either low fees or nothing where the club had hoped to secure better financial reinforcement. Bernd Leno, Lucas Torreira and Hector Bellerin would almost certainly fall into this category.
