Arsenal has been linked with a potential move for Fluminense’s Andre, especially after his summer transfer to Liverpool fell through. The Brazilian midfielder continues to attract interest from top English clubs, and Arsenal is keen to enhance their midfield options when the next transfer window opens.
However, Mikel Arteta’s squad already boasts numerous midfield options, and accommodating Andre might require the club to offload some players. According to a report from Football Insider, two midfielders who could potentially leave the club in the January transfer window to make room for Andre at the Emirates are Jorginho and Thomas Partey, both of whom have attracted interest from other clubs.
Since the last transfer window, when Arsenal added Declan Rice to their squad, both Jorginho and Thomas Partey have been subject to exit discussions. However, they remained at the Emirates, but the situation could change in January. Any change in the squad composition must occur before Arsenal can successfully sign Andre.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Partey and Jorginho are two significant players for us and have proven their importance in this campaign.
Losing them in January is not smart because Andre will need time to get used to his new teammates and we do not have that sort of time in the middle of a title challenge.

Partey should not be sold, doesn’t make sense. Let’s improve the squad and not deplete it.
Sell Elneny rather
yes Partey should not be sold for the time being .Elneny should rather sold
You don’t sell one of your best players when you are a top club just because you need extra funding .
Arsenal need to learn to sell players they don’t need .
this is a skill lacking as we tend to devalue our players when the coach decides he doesn’t want that player
How much did Pepe And Tierney worth before he stopped playing them?
Partey should be starting ahead of Jorginho in away games against quality opposition, why that wasn’t the case leaves more questions more than answers.
That leads to thinking the squad has not been managed properly.
Andre Trindale and Bitello are two quality Brazilian midfielders, neither is expected to hit the road running.
The gaffer needs to return to basic and maximize the uses of the players at hand.
Arteta should be careful with his recruitment. I hear he is aiming to recruit a few Brazilians currently playing in Italy. Who are these who will displace our home grown youngsters. I thought we were to keep printing from Hale End? These are our Boyz we don’t have to buy. We are very proud of them so please make the feel wanted by Arsenal and its fans.
I agree with the comments about Partey to a point, however, we have work to do in midfield, jorginho is going end of the season, elneny will leave probably and Partey is brilliant but often not available will be the wrong side of 30 ever other year disappears for Africa cup and we will only be able to command a decent fee in Jan or the summer for him. This all depends on the quality we bring in. We need 2 players I like some links like Zubermendi but I know very little about this Brazilian but by all accounts, he is very highly thought of plus Patino is looking really good now. I think changes are coming but I would like to see a fit Partey kept fresh for the business end of the season this year. He helps allot in tense games.
I like Zubimendi, he would be cup tied but he would be a perfect fit for us.
Now I watch Andre Trindale quite often he really plays in Brazil and not Italy.
He is a player like Gumaries at Newcastle, equally adept with both feet, loves to make diagonal passes he will run for the entire 90 minutes, he is definitely heading for the big times, technically gifted loves to trick his way out of tight spaces.
Really?
I watch Andre a lot, because i’m from Brazil.
And i dont want him anywhere near Arsenal.
Not good enough for us.
Two footed you say? That’s what we need.
Please let the board sell jorginho and elneny in January and bring in Andre and Quentin Timber or better still Quentin Timber and Kalvin Phillips, please we are tired of almost winning the PL trophy we wanna win it this time around and this guys plus Osimhen would give us the trophy no questions asked
Arsenal has a higher priority to spend available transfer funds on a top class centre forward. Currently Arsenal has midfielders not getting game time like ESR, on loan or coming through the academy.
The only Brazilian midfielder I’m interested in is Douglas Luiz.
We can sell elneny to provide a way for Andre. Jorginho and partey when fit are still vital and useful.
We need a strong cover in the left wre so weak over that back flank.
What you guys forgotten is that we need to make some sales if we were to have enough funds for any additional purchase, as to comply with FFP eg. Toney or Watkins are not gonna be less than 65mil, prolly 70-80mil. osimhen will cost upwards of 90mil, maybe 110mil. similarly P.Neto or any decent winger are not gonna cost less than 35mil, prolly 50ish. so lets say we buy 1 striker and 1 winger, its probably 120-160mil (im gonna put it as 125mil).
Selling Elneny wont earn us 125mil lol.. jorginho maybe 12-16mil or i’d say tops 18mil but Partey is definitely worth more than 20mil, 25-30mil maybe..
So we just need to get another 100mil more, maybe ESR plus 1 or 2 sales. But yeap if we selling both Partey and Jorginho, then we need to purchase 1 more cdm or cm.
Of coz we can do the loan and then purchase during summer the same as we did with Raya but not many clubs will wanna accept this type. In the end we still need to sell to purchase other than 100ish mil nett spend per season. but yeah crossed fingers.
For homegrown we currently have Saka, Martinelli, Saliba, Ramsdale, Raya, Ben White, Declan, ESR, Reiss, Nketiah total 10. The idea is to have 8 homegrown as best as there is around and up to 17non-homegrown (also as best as there is, thats if we can afford both transfer fee and wages)
It is the reality that in order to purchase , we gonna sell, but I see that it is a bad decision to let Thomas go rather than Elneny, maybe it is da Arteta’s decision and Osimen will boost Gunner’s title race….
