Arsenal aims to generate over £100 million from summer transfers

Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta faces a major test to boost the club’s market reputation by achieving more than £100 million in player sales this summer. After a low‑fee acquisition of goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga for £5 million last window, the club is assessing his potential sale for a profit. Berta must also decide on the future of several senior players, including Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, Martin Ødegaard, Ben White and Gabriel Jesus, as well as youth prospect Ethan Nwaneri. The aim is to surpass Arsenal’s previous record sale of Alex Oxlade‑Chamberlain (£35 million in 2017) and to prove the club can operate as an effective selling side, a capability that has drawn comparisons with Manchester City’s frequent high‑value exits. Success would mark a significant shift from the club’s recent focus on buying rather than rotating talent and could reshape Arsenal’s financial strategy going forward.
