Emmanuel Petit, the former Arsenal midfielder, has shared his insights on the club’s summer transfer strategy. He believes manager Mikel Arteta should retain Leandro Trossard while parting ways with three other squad members.
According to Petit, the Gunners need to strengthen their wide attacking options. He specifically mentioned that Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, and Noni Madueke are not up to the required standard. Petit expressed doubts about Viktor Gyokeres, who recently joined, but emphasized that Trossard deserves to stay.
Speaking to talkSPORT, Petit said: “It’s clear what Arsenal lack—wingers. For me, players like Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus, and Noni Madueke aren’t good enough. Leandro Trossard, I’d keep. But Madueke needs to show much more.”
Petit’s advice comes as Arsenal look to reshape their squad for the upcoming season, with the club likely to be active in the transfer market.
