Transfer: Three players to leave Arsenal after Arteta signs Rice, Timber

At least three players could leave Arsenal after the club agreed deals for West Ham captain, Declan Rice and Ajax’s Jurrien Timber.

This was revealed by football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, while speaking on CaughtOffside.

According to Romano, the likes of Nicolas Pepe, Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey, are facing the exit door.

“I expect now will be the time for Arsenal to focus on selling players.

“They’ve done great work with Jurrien Timber, Declan Rice and Kai Havertz, but now the focus will be on finding a solution for some players who are not crucial in the project, especially Nicolas Pepe.

“They also have to approve Granit Xhaka’s move to Bayer Leverkusen soon, with an agreement in place since May and just awaiting the green light.

“Let’s see also what happens with Thomas Partey; in case he leaves, another new midfielder could join,” Romano said.
