Arsenal are flying high in the Premier League at the moment, and you’d think that there isn’t much to complain about at the Emirates right now.

However, for certain players, Arsenal’s ascension has led to a downturn in terms of opportunities.

The likes of Aaron Ramsdale and Leandro Trossard aren’t getting the chances they deserve, while Emile Smith Rowe has spent the past 18 months out of the starting XI before getting his shot on Saturday.

Speaking on the Fully Loaded Transfer Show, Graeme Bailey has been discussing Smith Rowe’s situation at Arsenal, and he’s led to believe that the midfielder is actually getting fed up at the north London club and could be eyeing an exit from the Emirates in due course.

Smith Rowe getting fed up

Bailey shared what he knows about Smith Rowe.

“On Emile Smith Rowe, he’s one of these players who is getting itchy feet, he’s not particularly happy about the situation. Aston Villa offered a lot of money for Smith Rowe and he nearly went. He’s a player that is still interesting. He’s that number 10 Newcastle are crying out for. I think you’re missing that. I think he is very much on Newcastle’s radar, for next summer I think he will probably leave Arsenal next summer, Newcastle and Aston Villa both huge fans of him,” Bailey said.

Understandable

We can absolutely understand why Smith Rowe is getting annoyed at Arsenal.

The midfielder was on the verge of making a serious breakthrough before his injury issues. He was in the England squad and on his way to becoming a star.

However, since then, he’s barely had a look-in at Arsenal, and it feels like he should probably be looking elsewhere for first-team football at this point.

Don’t be shocked if Smith Rowe makes a move away from the Emirates at some point in the near future.
