Arsenal looked set to receive a transfer windfall in January when former midfielder Matteo Guendouzi was heavily linked with a move to Aston Villa. The Frenchman ended up remaining in his home country with Marseille, but his time in France could come to an end at the climax of the 2022/23 season.
Following a chaotic three years in north London, Guendouzi was loaned to Marseille ahead of the 2021/22 campaign and completed a permanent move to the French club after they activated the £9million buy option in the contract of his temporary spell.
Perhaps the 23-year-old's most talked about moment in an Arsenal shirt came in June 2020 after he got involved in an on-pitch spat with former Brighton striker Neal Maupay which, to many, spelled the end of his time at Arsenal, but the young midfielder has since claimed that this was not the case.
