Arsenal star would be worthy replacement for Liverpool’s Raheem Sterling
Theo Walcott
The most high-profile player among those named by this source and a player who has continually failed to deliver on his obvious potential. A sale of the England winger would certainly generate a decent windfall that can then be reinvested in Arsene Wenger’s squad.
The summer arrivals of Alexis Sanchez and Danny Welbeck may well have proven the death knell for the 25 year old’s Gunners career.
Tomas Rosicky
Veteran midfielder has barely featured this term, the Czech Republic star making just five Premier League starts, and is a player who could leave for pastures new this summer though clearly will not bring in anything more than a nominal fee.
Abou Diaby
Perennially injured midfielder is out of contract in the summer and is looking increasingly likely to leave the Emirates Stadium.
Mathieu Flamini
Experienced battler has seen his first team opportunities limited due to the resurgence of Francis Coquelin, the one-dimensional Frenchman is arguably not good enough to warrant anything more than a bit-part role.
Joel Campbell
Costa Rican impressed at Olympiakos last season and was a big hit at the 2014 World Cup finals, this led to the cultured forward being ushered into the Arsenal squad, however Arsene Wenger didn’t give the youngster much of a chance to impress before he was loaned out to Villarreal.
Carl Jenkinson
Another player who’s sale could garner a decent sum for the north London outfit, the England full-back has been a big hit at West Ham and one imagines a permanent switch to Upton Park is on the cards.
Ryo Miyaichi
The 22 year old Japanese international is in danger of seeing his career stagnate and yet another loan move doesn’t appear to have helped matters, a permanent exit may be best for all concerned.
Mikel Arteta
Veteran midfielder is past his best and injury issues have seen the Spaniard restricted to just six Premier League starts and it’s entirely plausible that Wenger will look to offload the former Everton man and the last of the eight exit bound players cited by the Metro
