This summer, Arsenal reportedly plans to sell about 11 players, including Bernd Leno and Nicolas Pepe.
Arsenal, who placed fifth in the Premier League standings last season, is in the midst of a complete squad overhaul.
This summer, the Gunners added players like Marquinhos, Fabio Vieira, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Matt Turner, and Gabriel Jesus to their roster on long-term contracts.
The Sun claims that Mikel Arteta’s team, however, is eager to get rid of surplus players before the 2022–2023 season.
Pepe is expected to be sold if Arsenal manages to secure a new offensive signing before the end of August, while Leno is on his way out to newly-promoted Fulham on an £8 million deal.
Nuno Tavares has been sent out on loan to French Ligue 1 side Marseille.
Arsenal are also hoping to raise as much as £50 million from the sale of five other players, Hector Bellerin, Pablo Mari, Lucas Torreira, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Reiss Nelson.
Others are Folarin Balogun, Arthur Okonkwo, and Alex Runarsson, who are also considered to be surplus to requirements at the North London club.
