Arsenal want quick resolution as interest mounts in Xhaka and Bellerin

The Gunners expect several players to leave this summer, but want deals sorted quickly as Mikel Arteta looks to revamp his squad

Arsenal want to resolve the futures of several players as quickly as possible this summer, with interest mounting in Granit Xhaka and Hector Bellerin.

Mikel Arteta is keen to revamp his squad after a disappointing eighth-placed finish in the Premier League and has previously admitted the club must be ruthless this summer if they want to close the gap on the country’s top sides.

And with money tight due to the financial impact of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, there is an acceptance that several players must be moved on to help fund the incomings Arsenal’s manager believes are needed to turn his team back into contenders once again.
