Unai Emery Keen to Offload Two Players Burdening Arsenal

The feud between Arsenal manager Unai Emery and Mesut Ozil is undoubtedly not a breaking news to many.

But it is a breaking news to hear that the Gunnars coach is also planning to relieve Armenian Henrikh Mkhitaryan along side Ozil.

Mkhitaryan’s name is sure to raise eyebrows, after the Armenian joined from Man United just over a year ago.

The 30-year-old has scored six goals and chipped in with four assists in 18 games this season.

Mkhitaryan is under contract until 2021. However the Mirror report:

Attacking midfielder Mkhitaryan is one of Arsenal’s highest earners on £180,000 per week, and only arrived last January.

But, as with £350,000 a week World Cup winner Ozil, new boss Unai Emery believes Mkhitaryan’s salary could be better spent elsewhere as he bids to reshape his squad.

Ozil has struggled to get into Arsenal’s team for large chunks of the season.

Unhelpfully, the Mirror fail to state which clubs could be interested in signing Mkhitaryan and/or Ozil.

Finding clubs willing to take these well-paid midfielders is unlikely to be straightforward.
