Several players on the chopping block as Arsenal looking to raise £100m

It's no surprise that Arsenal's signings have been the things making headlines. The London club have spent over £200 million this summer on trio Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber, as well as securing a loan move for keeper David Raya.

However, Financial Fair Play regulations mean that the club also needs to generate some revenue in sales, which so far have included small fees for Matt Turner, Aaron Trusty and Pablo Mari, while midfielder Granit Xhaka fetched £12 million from Bayer Leverkusen.

The Gunners are on the verge of moving on Folarin Balogun, who is about to be sold to French side Monaco for around £34 million, as well as securing a loan move for Kieran Tierney this season to Real Sociedad.

However, 'The Mirror' points to several other players that are on the exit ramp to raise funds before the window closes on September 1st. Midfielder Albert Sambi-Lakonga is one the names almost certain to depart, with the outlet reporting interest in the 23-year-old from clubs including Brighton.

The same paper writes that if the Gunners can't find a move for £72-million signing Nicolas Pepe, the club will terminate the Ivorian's contract. Due to his high wages, and below-par form last season on loan at Nice, there hasn't been a lot of interest in the 28-year-old.

Mikel Arteta's side are also looking to find sales for Rob Holding, Cedric Soares and Nuno Tavares, as all three defenders are surplus to the Spaniard's plans at Emirates. Turkish club Besiktas have been interested in Holding, while Tavares has appeared on Aston Villa's radar, after talks with Nottingham Forest fell through for the Brazilian.
