Arsenal Owner Stan Kroenke Regrets Selling Young Striker, Plans Buy-Back Move
Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has openly admitted his biggest regret from the January transfer window, revealing that he regrets selling a young striker despite Bukayo Saka advising against it. According to Kroenke, manager Mikel Arteta insisted on the sale, and the club eventually let the 17-year-old talent leave for a minimal transfer fee.
Since his departure, the young forward has been in sensational form, scoring an incredible 28 goals in just 15 matches. This remarkable performance has left Arsenal regretting their decision, with Kroenke now determined to rectify the mistake.
Speaking about the transfer, Kroenke expressed his disappointment, stating, “Saka told me not to sell him, but Arteta insisted. Now we regret it deeply.” As a result of this oversight, the club is now taking a firm stance on keeping its young talents and preventing future premature sales.
To address this mistake, Arsenal is now preparing to activate a buy-back clause in the player’s contract. The Gunners are eager to bring him back to the Emirates and reintegrate him into the squad. Fans will be watching closely as Arsenal moves to reclaim their young star and avoid similar regrets in thefuture.
