Arsenal striker, Folarin Balogun, is expected to be among eight players that will leave the club, as Mikel Arteta wants to trim his squad before the new season.
Arteta claims his current 30-man first-team squad is “unsustainable” and wants the club to expedite efforts to offload fringe players, according to the Evening Standard.
The Gunners will part ways with Nicolas Pepe, Albert Sambi Lokonga, Auston Trusty, Cedric Soares, Rob Holding, Nuno Tavares, Alex Runarsson as well as Balogun.
After Arsenal beat Barcelona 5-3 in their pre-season friendly Arteta stressed that “things can happen” in the market indicating that he is expecting departures in the next few weeks.
“We have 30 players here which is unsustainable. Obviously the market is still open, and things can happen – but we are prepared.
“We are really happy with the squad we have at the moment, we obviously have improvements to make in terms of what we want to do in games, and we have to do that. Overall, I’m really pleased with the team,” he told reporters.
