As the 2021/22 season approaches the home straight, it is becoming clearer and clearer as to what the future holds for many of Arsenal's 23-man strong loan army with as many as three deals expected to go through when the summer transfer window opens.
The players in question are, of course, Matteo Guendouzi, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Lucas Torreira. It was revealed earlier in the month that the former pair are to join Marseille and Stuttgart respectively, whilst football.london reported last week that the Uruguay international is poised to seal a permanent switch to Fiorentina.
And with Harry Clarke's loan deal at Hibernian not expiring until the end of next season, coupled with the likely departures of Alex Runarsson, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Hector Bellerin and Pablo Mari, that leaves as many as 15 players whom Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu have to make a decision on ahead of the new campaign.
