Arsenal fans will probably be hoping that no more players will be leaving anytime soon, but there is more to come on deadline day. Kieran Gibbs officially completed a £7million move to West Brom yesterday but there is likely to be many more departures today. In this article we take a look at 7 more Arsenal players set to leave on deadline day.
1 – Lucas Perez
Lucas has been on the way out all summer, but no club has been willing to pay the Gunners demands. Now it is reported that Arsenal are about to accept a £4million loan fee from Deportivo, with an option to buy the player permanently at the end of the season for around £9million. Arsenal will have preferred to sell the player permanently, but with no club willing to meet the Gunners £10million + asking price, Wenger will reluctantly accept a loan deal with a decent fee, and the potential to then sell for £9million next season. It is thought that Deportivo will pay all of the player’s wages for the season.
