Arsenal pair to leave, following recent double signing confirmation: report

Following Arsenal confirming two new deals, it appears two stars are definitely leaving this summer.

The Gunners are set for a big summer, with plenty of holes to plug in their side. The Athletic’s David Ornstein has already confirmed that a striker is the priority, though a wide man and midfielders are also said to be on the list of potential signings.

Arsenal will likely need to raise money through outgoings – and now Fabrizio Romano has provided a transfer update in his Daily Briefing.

The update follows the news of a double deal, as a new contract for Ben White contract was announced recently before Takehiro Tomiyasu followed suit.

A new backup goalkeeper to David Raya – whose loan move from Brentford will become permanent – is likely, too.
