Mikel Arteta Sends £55M Arsenal Star a Harsh Message After Newcastle Clash
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has reportedly delivered a crushing blow to a high-profile player following their disappointing performance in the 1-0 loss to Newcastle. The £55 million-rated star is now said to be on the chopping block, with Arteta allegedly informing him that his time at the club is up. The Gunners’ boss is rumored to have advised the player to start exploring options for a January exit.
While Arteta did not mention the player’s name in public, insiders believe his frustration stemmed from a costly mistake made during the match at St. James’ Park. Pundits and fans have expressed similar views, labeling the performance as subpar and questioning the player’s long-term viability at the club.
The incident marks a turning point for Arsenal, who are vying for the Premier League title this season. Arteta has made it clear that he expects high standards from every squad member and is unafraid to take decisive action when those standards are not met.
As the January transfer window approaches, speculation grows about the player’s future. A potential move could see Arsenal recoup some of the significant investment while clearing space for reinforcements.
