Arsenal open to selling 22-year-old ace

14 June 2020 - 11:34

Arsenal are reportedly open to parting ways with Ainsley Maitland-Niles when the current season reaches its conclusion.

  • Mauricio Pochettino confirms fresh injury blow for Chelsea star
  • Arsenal want to make four marquee signings this summer

  • The 22-year-old has made 24 appearances for the club this term but he failed to make the matchday squad in the four league games before the lockdown.

    It has been previously reported that manager Mikel Arteta does not consider him in his future plans and The Sun claims that the club are willing to sanction his departure.

    Maitland-Niles presently has more than three years remaining on his existing deal and it is said that the north London side will demand a fee of around £20m for his services.

    Arteta is aiming to recoup funds from player sales this summer, considering the club are not in a position to hand a budget due to the financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

    Aside from Maitland-Niles, the likes of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Sokratis and Mohamed Elneny have been tipped to head through the exit door in the next transfer window.
