Arsenal s summer window cleaning! The list of up to 10 people leaving the team is exposed, Arteta s reconstruction has caused controversy

As the 2025 summer transfer window approaches, Arsenal is about to usher in a major cleanup. According to media such as "Football FanCast" and "Football Insider", the team is preparing to sell a player with "top level" and even "strong ability to play for Real Madrid/Barca/Manchester City" - this indicates that Arsenal's lineup will usher in a major reshaping.

At present, club sports director Andrea Berta has begun to formulate a lineup restructuring plan. Although the team has not officially announced the transfer list, many players are already on the verge of leaving the team. Among them, Ukrainian wingman Zinchenko, due to limited playing time this season, has been basically confirmed to leave the Emirates Stadium this summer. Another defender, Tierney, will also leave the team, and he has signed an early contract with the Soviet Super League giants Celtics. In terms of midfield, although Ghana international Thomas Paltey is still negotiating a new contract with the team, no agreement has been reached at present, and it is more likely to leave the team. Jorginho, whose contract is about to expire, has basically decided to join the Brazilian team Flamenco. Another player to be concerned is Ricardo Calafiori. Despite his versatility and defensive ability, Arsenal has begun to tend to sell him due to frequent injuries that have affected the number of appearances in the 2024/25 season. According to former Manchester United chief scout, "If he can only play 15 to 20 games in a season, it will be difficult for him to become a player that Arsenal is willing to continue to trust."

Although Arsenal may send away multiple players, the club still needs to be cautious in operation, because the thickness of the lineup has become a major hidden danger. Berta must find a balance between rebuilding and staying competitive. In addition, several players who are on loan also face uncertain futures. Among them, Loconga and Tavarez are particularly eye-catching. The latter currently plays for Serie A powerhouse Lazio and comes with a mandatory buyout clause in the loan contract. Tavarez's performance at the beginning of this season was amazing, sending eight assists in the first 8 league games. Although he was absent due to injury later in the season, his performance is still praised.

For this reason, Lazio hopes to facilitate the transfer, but the buyout clause only takes effect when certain conditions are met, and Italy is seeking a more flexible negotiation plan. Meanwhile, Football Insider pointed out that both Tavarez and Loconga will officially leave Arsenal this summer, and they are only part of this batch or up to 10 people cleaning up the roster.

It is worth mentioning that Tavarez has recently returned to the Portuguese national team due to his outstanding performance. Tudor, who once coached Marseille, once commented on him: "He is a young player with top physical fitness and amazing explosiveness. He is fully capable of gaining a foothold in Real Madrid, Barcelona or Manchester City." Judging from his performance this season, Tavarez's potential is obviously underestimated. Before he transferred to Arsenal, Benfica even set up extremely protective terms for him in his contract, which shows how high his evaluation was.
