Deadline day could turn out brilliantly if latest Arsenal rumour happens

Opinions will be split on the arrival of David Luiz from Chelsea to Arsenal but one transfer that will unite almost every single Arsenal fan is that of Shkodran Mustafi.

According to the Sun, Arsenal will allow the German defender to leave the Emirates once the Luiz deal is complete with a move to the French Ligue 1 the most likely destination.

It is not known whether it would be just a loan deal or a permanent deal.

If this happens it would the cherry on top the cake for the Arsenal faithful, they have been screaming for Mustafi to be let go and it now appears there is a chance of that actually happening.

Mustafi has never really made it work at Arsenal, he has proven to be error-prone, his judgement is questionable and his positional sense leaves a lot to be desired.

The idea that Arsenal would enter a new season with the 27-year-old still in the team would have put a dampener on what has been a successful transfer window so far.

It must be said that it is just the tabloids going with this right now but it would not surprise me if we do see the back of Mustafi by the close of the window at 17.00 UK time today.
