Arsenal has made a decision over the future of Konstantinos Mavropanos after he returned from his loan spell in Germany.
The Greek defender was sent out on loan to German second-tier side, FC Nurnberg this season and his fine form for them has prompted other teams to consider taking him away from the Gunners.
He has returned to the Emirates after the German top flights reached their conclusion and he may be looking to continue his career with the Gunners.
Arsenal, however, has quite a few defenders on their books at the moment and he is likely to struggle to make the first team.
Express Sports is reporting that the Gunners have decided to send him out on loan again next season so that he can continue his development where he can play more often.
He joined the Gunners as one of the last signings that Arsenal made under Arsene Wenger.
He has made eight appearances for the Gunners, but he is still seen as a star of the future.
Making him available for loan shows that the club still thinks that he might become an important member of their team later and it is up to him to prove that he can take the step up when he does eventually return to the Emirates full time.
Good… Send him on laon again rather than sell.
Kid has been phenomenonal at Nurnberg this season.
Would be an error to let him leave
Agreed,loan him out and see how he develops
Why should he go on loan if he had phenomenal season, he can’t be any worse than the centres we have
Because he needs to build more his confidence, right now he doesn’t need an unbalanced squad such as ours
Why not bring him back and get rid of Luiz socratis, Mari?
We know he is a top young player strong dominant and can play as DM we don’t have
That’s why we are nowhere nor going anywhere… Q
Get rid of mari don’t be stupid he’s only just come, you still want to keep mustafi lol
Mogunna, why do you want to get rid of Mari?
The little I have seen of him, makes me think he can do a very competent job on the left hand side of CD and he should link up with Tierney /Saka down that flank.
It seems like Sokratis is on his way out, rumours are saying he has agreed terms and final details are being ironed out.
Ken1945 I completely agree with you on Mari, I too think he will be good based on what I have seen so far.
Regarding Sokratis is the contract being terminated or is he being sold?
Really good decision by the club he’s been really good at nuremberg. Getting a year experience at a top league will do him good and hopefully he’ll come back ready to play for us.
Good move. He will come good.
