Arsenal is preparing for a significant restructuring ahead of the upcoming season and has already defined the departure of eleven players who will not be part of Mikel Arteta's new project. Between expiring contracts, non-renewed loans, and technical decisions aimed at revenue generation, the London club is looking to streamline its squad to reinforce key areas, such as the forward line.

Arsenal plans 11 departures in the next summer

One of the clearest cases is that of Portuguese goalkeeper Neto, who will return to Bournemouth after completing his loan spell at the Emirates. In defense, significant movements are also on the horizon: Kieran Tierney, whose contract expires this summer, will not renew, and Takehiro Tomiyasu will be put on the market due to his recurring physical issues. Additionally, Nuno Tavares, currently playing for Lazio, will be transferred.

In midfield, the overhaul will be even more evident. Thomas Partey and Jorginho will see the end of their contracts, while Albert Sambi Lokonga, loaned to Sevilla, will be sold. Fabio Vieira, at Porto, will also depart permanently. The sporting direction does not count on them for the next phase.

The forward line is not exempt from this renewal. Raheem Sterling, on loan from Chelsea, will return to Stamford Bridge at the end of the season. Reiss Nelson, loaned to Fulham, will follow the same departure path with a permanent sale. Lastly, Leandro Trossard will also be transferred, in this case to free up wage space and raise funds to strengthen the attack with a reliable 'number 9'.

With these decisions, Arsenal aims to strategically shift its squad, opting for profiles more in line with the dynamic football proposed by Arteta and laying the groundwork for impactful signings.
