Nicolas Pepe can end an ongoing Arsenal trend if he completes a £25m summer transfer

Here we go again, same old Arsenal but just a different player ahead of a transfer window. Although, this summer could mark the end of a trend that has become familiar with the club in recent years.

The one thing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Mesut Ozil, Alexis Sanchez and Shkodran Mustafi all have in common is that they are four of the most expensive signings in the Gunners' history - with the former pair, at one stage, holding the honour of being the club's record signing.

Of course, none of the quartet are at Arsenal right now and it won't be lost on supporters that not a single penny was received for any with the rare swap deal involving Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Sanchez proving to be the only time the club got something in return aside from saving millions on wages.
