Arsenal boss Unai Emery set to lose one player this summer - he already has offers
ARSENAL boss Unai Emery is set to lose his first player of the transfer window, after wonderkid Krystian Bielik revealed he wants to leave the Emirates Stadium.
Defender Bielik wants to leave Arsenal this summer, according to The Sun.
The Poland Under-21 star was told that he wouldn’t be featuring in the Gunners’ first-team squad.
After a successful spell at Charlton last season on loan, he was hoping to be given a chance under Emery.
But he’s now asked to leave the club, with a whole host of teams ready to swoop in.
The defender has reportedly been the centre of transfer offers
Arsenal told Bielik in April that they were considering loaning him out again next season.
Just two weeks ago, he said that he’d be considering his future if he was forced to join the Arsenal youth team again.
The defender has reportedly been the centre of transfer offers before he even left for the Under-21 European Championships.
Clubs from England, Italy, Germany, Belgium and Holland have all enquired about Bielik.
Arsenal midfielder Lucas Torreira would also be open to move away from the Emirates this summer.
The Uruguay star has struggled to settle in the UK, and said life was easier in Italy.
AC Milan have been watching the developments with Torreira, and they’re even lining up a bid for the midfielder.
They’re going to offer Arsenal £31m, but the deal would include a two-year loan deal.
Meanwhile, the Gunners are closing in on a deal for Celtic defender Kieran Tierney.
Emery has already had a £15m bid for the full-back rejected, but are tempted to make an improved £19m move.
Celtic boss Neil Lennon is holding out for £25m, and he’s admitted that every player has a price.
The Scotland international is interested in a move to the Premier League, and he almost moved to Everton last year.
