Arsenal’s sales department has been struggling to match the expectations of the clubs around them. Chelsea and Liverpool have greatly benefited from the huge sums paid for surplus players that have enabled them to invest heavily in the market.
Arsenal meanwhile have been serial contract cancellers of late. Players like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mesut Ozil, Shkodran Mustafi and Sokratis Papastathopoulos were amongst a number of the squad allowed to leave for nothing.
Edu, the club’s technical director, has been brought into focus by much of the fan base and now faces a pivotal summer transfer window for buys and sales. Fail and his reputation might drop further in the minds of the supporters.
