Arsenal are expected to part ways with several players after the signing of Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace this summer.

The Gunners have already spent £200 million on six signings during the transfer window and their outlay will increase to £268m after the purchase of Eze from the Eagles.

Arsenal were initially reluctant to make a move for Eze without player sales, but their stance changed earlier today following a concerning knee injury sustained by Kai Havertz.

Eze will play for Palace in tomorrow’s Europa Conference League play-off before signing for the Gunners. Arsenal will then focus on outgoings before the transfer deadline.

Talks are ongoing with Porto and Stuttgart regarding Jakub Kiwior and Fabio Vieira, while Fulham have expressed an interest in Reiss Nelson.

Fenerbahce are admirers of Oleksandr Zinchenko while PAOK have made an approach for Albert Sambi Lokonga over the past 48 hours.

Aside from the quintet, goalkeeper Karl Hein is also poised to move on. Werder Bremen are said to be considering a move for him.
