Mikel Arteta has defended Arsenal’s decision to cut up to 60 jobs and insisted it was necessary to ensure they can continue achieving success.
The Premier League champions are understood to have informed some, but not all, of the staff whose positions are at risk after a consultation process started by Boston Consulting Group (BCG) before the end of last season. Arsenal hope the number of redundancies can be reduced and will attempt to redeploy affected employees wherever possible, although some job losses may be unavoidable.
