Wednesday morning Arsenal transfer updates – five players to leave and two possible arrivals

If there was ever a specific point in time when transfer gossip ramps up it is when the season comes to a conclusion and we are almost at that point now and today is just a taster of what is to come over the next couple of months.

Bournemouth playmaker Ryan Fraser has long been linked with a move to us but it now appears that he will be remaining on the south coast for at least one more season according to the Mirror.

News from the Netherlands is claiming that two of PSV Eindhoven players that have been linked with a move to the Emirates, 21-year-old Steven Bergwijn and 23-year-old Mexico winger Hirving Lozano will be sold this summer.

Former Invincible Edu, who is the current general coordinator for the Brazilian national team, is set to become our new technical director, according to the Daily Mail.

We will be offloading at least five high profile players in the summer in order to fund new acquisitions. Unai Emery wants to sell Mesut Ozil, Shkodran Mustafi, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Carl Jenkinson and Mohamed Elneny, according to Goal.com.

That is it for now but it is still early in the morning and no doubt more players will be linked with us before the day is out.
