Nicolas Pepe has attracted the attention of Ligue 1 club, Nice and they want to sign him on loan this summer.
The Ivorian has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates this season and Arsenal is open to allowing him to leave.
However, because of his underwhelming spell with them, clubs don’t want to add him to their squad.
The winger hopes to find a suitable home soon. That prayer has probably been answered as a report on The Daily Mail claims Nice wants to sign him.
The Ligue 1 side has just added the former Arsenal man, Aaron Ramsey, to their squad in this transfer window and Pepe could join him there.
The report claims they want to take the £72m flop on loan for the rest of this campaign and see if he can get better with a change of environment.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Pepe has been a disaster, and we need to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Because he has struggled at the Emirates, few clubs will want him, so we should make it easy for Nice to get the transfer sorted.
If he does well on loan with them, we can recoup some of the fees we paid to sign him next summer.

A disappointment yes but Disaster is stretching the truth a bit, methinks.
Absolutely without the fee, he didn’t quite make it. Played a role regardless. Top signing for the majority of clubs in the world just not the top 10.
You the writer of this article is the disaster, not Pepe. He might have flopped but that is debatable as he has 48 goals contribution across 112 appearances for Arsenal.
It’s a shame reading articles like this where derogatory adjectives like “flop” and “disaster” are used to describe a loyal servant of the club, who is clearly talented. He might be frustrating at times but he is not in the slightest way a bad player or “disaster”.
He might not be getting enough minutes due to the brilliance of Saka, which is understandable and due to the tactical setup Arteta deploys. It’s high time fans show some respect to players such as Xhaka and Pepe. You don’t have to like these players, you only need to respect them since they are humans and have a family that love them and won’t treat them less.
Admin Pat, please you will have to change the ‘Just Arsenal opinion’ to the writer’s opinion because the writer’s opinion is not the same as all Arsenal fans opinion or the arsenal board or mgt opinion, how can the writer say Pepe is a disaster in arsenal, he doesn’t suit Arteta plan doesn’t mean that he is a disaster to us……
These articles that contain the Just Arsenal opinion I always assume have come from admins or Dan Smith. Guest articles don’t contain that.
Dan Smith is a recent addition to that and it’s not gone how he’d hoped. People reply the same and those with an agenda don’t realise it’s him so don’t pile on opposite to pursue that. He doesn’t reply to anyone either so waaaaaaaaaaaay less comments but same replies disputing his opinion, just lower scale and without the usual suspect noise generating even more comments.
And Dan you’ve proven yourself already with the prediction league alone. Drop the Wenger chip on your shoulder (which I share) and become an Adam Bate not a gabby agbonlahor or Jaime O’hara. You’ll notice Adam is the only one that was not a top tier pro as well.
Extend his contract and send him immediately
Pepe is the current underrated arsenal player.
underrated overall not underrated for us.
