Arsenal have strived to improve their selling reputation after several years of poor deals seeing a minimal financial benefit to the club. Sporting director Edu has felt the need to cancel contracts and come to agreements in terminating deals.
The Brazilian told football.london that these were seen as ‘investments’. However it could not carry on for Arsenal and despite some player sales remaining low, the club have aimed to improve the potential gains in the market with the inclusion of sell-on clauses.
Matteo Guendouzi and Konstantinos Mavropanos both left the club permanently last summer after Marseille and Stuttgart, respectively, had the 'buy clauses' activated in their respective loan deals. The Mirror reports that Guendouzi is thought to have had a 15% sell-on clause included in the switch and in addition football.london understands that Mavropanos’ switch also includes a sell-on clause at around 10%.
