Arsenal’s manager, Mikel Arteta, aims to offload three significant players, including Kai Havertz, in a bid to gather funds for the potential January transfer of Kylian Mbappe to Arsenal.
Arsenal recently secured a financial boost of £76 million ahead of the upcoming January transfer window, largely attributed to their advancement to the Champions League last-16 as group winners. The team’s impressive performance in a 6-0 win over Lens solidified their position in the tournament’s elimination stages.
The breakdown of the received £76 million includes various components such as starting fees, UEFA Coefficient 10-year Ranking, market pool earnings, and rewards for progressing to the Round of 16.
Reportedly, both Arsenal and Liverpool are exploring the financial and sporting aspects required to attract Kylian Mbappe to the Premier League. Mbappe, whose contract with Paris Saint-Germain ends this season, declined an extension offer and is anticipated to depart on a free transfer.
Although there’s a widespread assumption that Mbappe might lean towards joining Real Madrid after his contract ends, Arsenal and Liverpool have shown interest. However, reports suggest that Mbappe has a longstanding preference for Liverpool over Arsenal.
