ARSENAL READY TO SACK MANY PLAYERS AFTER EUROPA LEAGUE FINAL’S HUMILIATION
Joseph Omoniyi
Arsenal manager Unai Emery has revealed that some players will have to leave the club following their 4-1 loss to Chelsea in the Europa League final in Baku.
Arsenal missed out in next season’s Champions League in a third successive year.
As a result, Arsenal may now need to offload some players in what could be a busy summer in the transfer market.
“Our idea is to continue to carry on and improve with the young players that have arrived,” Emery said. “Maybe some players need to leave but it’s not the moment to speak about that.”
“We have the possibility for a lot of players to improve. We have young players getting the first experience of a final and I am positive for our future with young players getting better in our way.
“I am very proud of our work, not very proud to not achieve our target, but proud of our work because I think the players did all they could to achieve our target and we are closer to other teams. The next year we can continue with the same team with some players coming to help us get better.
