Arsenal: Assessing whether to keep, sell or loan every squad member

Attacking Midfielders/Wingers

Martin Odegaard – KEEP – After a fine 2021/22 campaign, there’s no chance Odegaard departs the Emirates this summer. He’s a key part of Mikel’s project.

Emile Smith Rowe – KEEP – A slowish end to the campaign hasn’t undermined another season of distinct promise. He’ll continue to build and grow under Teta.

Bukayo Saka – KEEP – We’re probably a season away from the Real Madrid’s of the world making a move for our Starboy. The 2022/23 campaign will be huge in determining his future.

Gabriel Martinelli – KEEP – Arsenal’s new number 11 will be looking to build on an exciting campaign. He has the makings of a superstar.

Nicolas Pepe – SELL – Arteta never has, nor will he ever will, thrust Pepe into the limelight at the Emirates. He’s far too streaky to succeed under the meticulous Spaniard. It’s time for Arsenal to cut their losses.

Strikers

Alexandre Lacazette – LET GO – A decent servant, but it’s time for Lacazette to leave. The Frenchman’s contract expires this summer and I expect him to return to France as a free agent.

Eddie Nketiah – KEEP – Nketiah is set to extend his stay in north London by signing a lucrative five-year deal.
