Overview
- Club planning centers on raising funds through departures after a net outlay near £300m across eight signings in Berta’s first season.
- Up to 11 players are being considered for sale, with uncertainty around Gabriel Martinelli and academy products Myles Lewis‑Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri as they seek regular minutes.
- Only Jakub Kiwior’s £17m move to Porto is assured among current loanees, while Reiss Nelson, Fábio Vieira and Karl Hein are due back with a year left on their deals.
- Arsenal are monitoring younger defensive options, notably Newcastle right back Tino Livramento and RB Leipzig center back Castello Lukeba, both 23.
- Separate reporting says Manchester City, Bayern Munich and AS Monaco are tracking Berta, though his expanded remit at Arsenal, including academy oversight, points to continuity.
