Ian Wright warns Arsenal that key player could push to leave in summer transfer window

Ian Wright has warne Arsenal bosses that key players like. William Saliba could push to leave the club if they fail to recruit well in the summer transfer window.

Arsenal finishe runners-up to Manchester City เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย over the last two seasons in the Premier League and Mikel Arteta’s men require a spectacular collapse from Liverpool to restore any hope of a late title push this term.

Arteta confirme there were plans in place to strengthen in January after injuries to. Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka left the Gunners desperately thin on the ground in attack.

But the transfer deadline came and went without Arsenal bringing in any reinforcements and news that. Kai Havertz would miss the remainder of the campaign came as a further blow to the north Londoners.

West Ham’s 1-0 victory at the Emirates at the weekend means Arsenal now trail Arne Slot’s. Reds by 11 points in the table ahead of their trip to third-place Nottingham Forest on Wednesday night.

Reflecting on the current state of affairs at Arsenal, Wright said he was unable to ‘comprehend’ how his former team had not manage to bring in a forward given their injury crisis.

‘What really worries me is as the injuries are starting to happen… Saka injury, Jesus injury, we’ve had [Martin] Odegaard injure. Everybody has injure at some stage that we really neede. Saliba has injure, Gabriel has injure, Ben White is just coming back,’ the ex-Arsenal and England forward told.

‘I’m just thinking to myself that when the injuries starte to happen, we didn’t do any great business in the summer, we didn’t do any business in January.

‘Are the people upstairs thinking, “Let’s not go hard now and wait for the summer”? Have they accepte that we’re not going to win this league? Because I can’t sit here and think that Mikel is happy right now. He cannot be.

‘Whether it’s sports science or not is a whole different story but he cannot be happy being this close with everything that’s happened to him this season, with the injuries, with the decisions.

‘How can we not make any signings in January? No striker that we’ve neede. I can’t comprehend it.’

Saka, Gabriel Magalhaes and Saliba are all out of contract at Arsenal in 2027 and Wright fears the club could be face with a similar predicament that Liverpool have with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk.

Recent emanating out of France claime Real Madrid were closely monitoring Saliba’s contract situation and had identifie the centre-back as their primary transfer target for the summer.
