Arsenal midfielder exile Lucas Torreira has dropped a huge transfer hint that his long-awaited Gunners exit could be close as he was spotted away from the American training camp amid Mikel Arteta's recent admission.
The Uruguayan has been involved in the early parts of the north Londoners' pre-season schedule as Arteta made the decision early on in the summer to include the 26-year-old in the squad that is currently in Florida. "Lucas Torreira is our player, yes," manager Arteta said when asked about the midfielder's future after the latest Orland pre-season victory.
Despite this decision, the general feeling was that the Unai Emery signing was only being included to keep up his fitness levels ahead of another move away from the Emirates Stadium this summer. This follows the Fiorentina loan that the former Sampdoria man undertook in 2020/21. Since the emotional farewell that he penned upon the termination of his latest Serie A stay, Torreira's agent has gone on record to suggest that La Liga regulars Valencia were an option for his client but so far, nothing has materialised to this point.
