Arsenal winger expected to leave the club

Arsenal are prepared to sanction the departure of Willian during the forthcoming transfer window.

The Brazil international joined the club on a free transfer last summer after the expiry of his contract with Chelsea.

He managed one goal and seven assists in his debut season, but his performances were disappointing overall.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the Gunners are preparing to part ways with the winger ahead of the summer.

Willian has two years remaining on his contract, and the Gunners are aiming to secure a nominal fee for his exit.

He has been linked with a possible move to Major League Soccer with reported interest from Inter Miami.

Willian has the preference to remain in Europe, but there are reportedly no offers on the table at the moment.

A move to Roma could be a possibility with the chance to reunite with former Chelsea head coach Jose Mourinho.

Arsenal teammate Granit Xhaka is reportedly on the verge of joining the Giallorossi for an initial fee of around £13m.
