Ian Wright warns three key stars will leave Arsenal unless they do one thing
Ian Wright has warned Arsenal that they need to make an ‘unbelievable’ signing this summer or risk losing three of their best players.
Having come close to winning the Premier League in the last two seasons, this campaign could end up being one of great disappointment for Arsenal.
While they are currently second in the table, they are six points behind Liverpool who have a game in hand, with many believing the Reds will not be caught.
Moreover, the Gunners were knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester United on Sunday and are 2-0 down in their Carabao Cup semi-final tie with Newcastle United.
The prospect of another trophyless season is real and there is great concern about the side’s blunt attack, especially with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus sidelined with injury.
But Wright is also greatly worried that the lack of silverware and ambition in the transfer market could cause problems down the line, singling out three players whose contracts expire in 2027.
‘We have to start thinking about about Gabriel [Magalhaes], [William] Saliba and Saka. After this season, they’ve got two years left,’ the former Arsenal striker said on his Wrighty’s House podcast.
