Arsenal approves the sale/departure of one of their midfielders

Arsenal have officially approved the departure of midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga, paving the way for a potential move to Sevilla. Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the news, revealing that talks are underway between the two clubs regarding a permanent transfer.

Lokonga, 24, spent the 2023/24 season on loan at Luton Town, where he gained valuable experience in the Championship. However, upon his return to Arsenal, it became clear that he was not part of manager Mikel Arteta’s plans for the upcoming season. The Belgian midfielder has reportedly given the green light to a move to Sevilla, with the value of the buy clause currently being negotiated between the two clubs.

The move to Sevilla represents a fresh start for Lokonga, who could benefit from the La Liga experience and the opportunity to play regular first-team football. His departure from Arsenal also allows the Gunners to trim their squad and free up space for potential new arrivals. The transfer saga is expected to reach a conclusion soon, with both clubs eager to finalize the deal and secure the future of the young midfielder.
