Arsenal manager Unai Emery is set to offload several members of his squad this summer as he continues his squad rebuilding process.

The Spanish boss wasn’t really able to completely stamp his authority on the team during last summer’s transfer window. Having had a full season to completely evaluate his team, however, that should be an easier process this time around.

Emery has done well during his maiden campaign in England. The Gunners are still in with a chance of a top-four finish, whilst they are in the semi-final of the Europa League.

The players available for transfer, according to the Daily Mail, are Shkodran Mustafi, Mesut Ozil, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Callum Chambers, David Ospina, Carl Jenkinson and Mohamed Elneny.

Petr Cech and Aaron Ramsey are already departing in the summer and the departures of the aforementioned will significantly enhance Emery’s budget.

TBR Verdict

None of the players reportedly set for Arsenal departures are overly surprising.

Given his quality, perhaps Ozil is the one that Gunners supporters might have liked Emery to persist with a little while longer.

The rest are far too inconsistent and it is quite understandable exactly why the boss is choosing to offload.

If all of them can find new clubs then it leaves Emery with lots of room for manoeuvre within his ranks and supporters can expect some new additions.
