Arsenal set to sell three midfielders ‘in coming days’ with overhaul underway


Arsenal are set to sell three midfielders in the upcoming summer transfer window as they start a huge overhaul. The Gunners will miss out on any kind of European football for the first time in 25 years. Therefore, manager Mikel Arteta is willing to let several Gunners stars leave as he plans a huge rebuild. Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has recently suggested all three of Granit Xhaka, Matteo Guendouzi and Lucas Torreira are up for sale with the summer transfer window. The trio have enjoyed mixed careers in North London. Lucas Torreira took to life at the Emirates with seemingly great ease. However, he has spent the majority of the 2020/21 season on loan at La Liga champions Atletico Madrid. Matteo Guendouzi was signed from French Ligue 2 outfit as a relatively unknown talent. He featured throughout Unai Emery's tenure, before disciplinary issues drove a wedge in his relationship with current boss Arteta. Guendouzi has been on loan at Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin since September. Granit Xhaka is undeniably one of the most divisive players of the Emirates era. The Swiss midfielder is the subject of interest from Serie A outfit AS Roma, managed by Jose Mourinho, who is publicly a big fan of Xhaka. The self-proclaimed special one once said: "Granit Xhaka is the main man in the entire Arsenal midfield, you can't see it unless I lend you one of my eyes. Without him, Arsenal is lost. He is a leader. Remember, mistakes are made by humans."
