What is Arsenal’s plan for Marquinhos after his return to the Emirates?

Arsenal has decided to recall Marquinhos from his loan spell at Nantes, but the Brazilian is expected to leave again. Initially sent to Nantes with the belief that he would receive significant playing time to aid in his development, Marquinhos saw limited minutes in the first half of the season, prompting Arsenal to bring him back to the Emirates.

Now back at Arsenal, the question arises as to whether Marquinhos will have opportunities in Mikel Arteta’s team, which is currently contending for the Premier League title. However, according to Premier League Brasil, he is not expected to stay at the Emirates.

The report suggests that Arsenal is actively seeking another club for Marquinhos to join, with a return to Brazil being one option. Despite having potential suitors in Brazil, the focus is on loaning him to another European club during the current transfer window. Arsenal aims to secure a move that provides Marquinhos with valuable playing time and contributes to his continued development.

Just Arsenal Opinion

It is a surprise that Marquinhos did not get playing chances at Nantes, but we expect him to find another home in the second half of the season.

Clubs will come forward to add him to their squad, and we must prioritise game time over the division.

  1. Very poor loan agreement, surely some kind of analysis goes into how much game time a player may get after all that’s the point of the loan.

    Game time is never guaranteed but there still needs to be some logical thought put behind the loan. Hopefully the next loan won’t be as badly thought through by management as this one.

    1. I’d always assumed that a loan deal was meant to be beneficial to all parties.

      Arsenal want their player to get much needed game experience, the host club get a useful addition and the player learns as he plays regularly.

      I’d be grateful if you could explain to me what Arsenal did wrong in letting Marquinhos go to France if as you point out that game time cannot be guaranteed. If he’d been ripping up trees then he’d have got the game time, I’d have thought

  2. I do rate him but i’m not sure what the gaffer wants from him that he is unable to deliver. Except of course, he is being carefully moulded like the bright youngsters in our academy in a no rush into the first team approach.
