Update on Lucas Torreira’s Arsenal exit as loan fee revealed
Arsenal would be willing to pay a portion of Lucas Torreira’s wages if he joins a club in Uruguay, with a potential move to Boca Juniors now in doubt.
Torreira joined Arsenal from Sampdoria back in 2018 and impressed early on in his Gunners career, making 50 appearances in his first season.
The Uruguayan then made 39 appearances last season before falling out of favour under Mikel Arteta.
Torreira was not included in the squad for Arsenal’s first four Premier League games this term before leaving on loan to Atletico Madrid.
Following the passing of his mother in Uruguay, Torreira admitted that he would like to leave Europe and play in South America to be closer to his family.
