Mikel Arteta has delivered a detailed explanation in how Arsenal operate as a club during the transfer window.
The Gunners have been one of the busiest Premier League clubs this summer, securing deals for Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Fabio Vieira, Matt Turner and Marquinhos, as well as moving on a number of fringe players on permanent and loan deals. Nicolas Pepe is the latest player that looks set to leave the Emirates Stadium with Ligue 1 side OGC Nice looking to sign the Ivorian winger on a season-long loan deal, football.london understands.
Arsenal have spent in excess of £100million for a second successive summer with technical director Edu working hard behind the scenes to reshape Arteta's squad and meet the Spaniard's demands. Arteta has since revealed how the club come to make their decisions on recruitment, highlighting the roles of Stan Kroenke, Edu and other key departments at the London Colney.
