Ahead of their scary clash with Bayern Munich in the Champions League, Arsenal have so much to worry about. Another round of 16 exit is the least of their worries, as the future of Wenger and a few key players – namely Alexis Sanchez – weight heavy on the boards mind.
Then there is the chance of the Gunners failing to qualify for the Champions League for the first time under Le Prof. After losing 3-1 to Liverpool, they dropped to fifth and are struggling to win games.
That defeat all but guaranteed Alexis Sanchez’s exit. The Chilean has long been tipped with a move away from the Gunners, with a rumored rift with Arsene Wenger earning him a spot on the bench. But according to The Times, the former Barca ace isn’t the only Arsenal player destined for a summer exit.
The new outlet claim that he will be joined by David Ospina. The Colombian goalkeeper lost his role as the club’s number one custodian when Petr Cech arrived at the Emirates, with the Chelsea great being the Premier League regular.
Ospina’s current deal with Arsenal runs until 2019, but the shot-stopper has his mind made up on an exit. According to the report, he feels betrayed by the club’s decision to sign Cech in 2015.
The search for Cech’s replacement has begun. However, Ospina’s departure would leave the Gunners in a sticky situation, as Szczesny appears nowhere close to an Arsenal return.
