Four Arsenal stars face brutal transfer dilemma as contract talks demanded with Bukayo Saka irony

Arsenal have been urged to make a final decision regarding one of their former academy stars heading into the summer after a series of loans. As they prepare to potentially lose Reiss Nelson and Emile Smith Rowe in the summer, another name could be added to the list.

In the same week that Hale End graduate Bukayo Saka became the club's highest earner with a new five-year deal, Tyreece John-Jules opened up on the struggles he has had since moving on from the same youth team as a host of current first-team players. John-Jules, who spent this season on loan with Ipswich, played alongside Saka, Smith Rowe and Folarin Balogun until 2020 before things changed drastically.

Whilst Saka and Smith Rowe went on to make their first team breakthrough in that same season, John-Jules is yet to make a senior appearance and has instead spent time on five separate loans in the past three seasons. He has had spells at Sheffield Wednesday - one game - as well as Blackpool, Doncaster and Lincoln but os yet to establish himself.
