Arsenal 'willing to offload Matteo Guendouzi for £8.6m'

Arsenal are reportedly willing to sell midfielder Matteo Guendouzi for as little as £8.6m in this summer's transfer window.

The Frenchman has returned to the Gunners after spending the season on loan at Bundesliga outfit Hertha Berlin, where he made 24 appearances, recording two goals and three assists.

However, head coach Mikel Arteta is planning a major overhaul of the first-team squad before the new campaign begins and Guendouzi is thought to be one of several players on the chopping block.

Acccording to Le10Sport, Arsenal will accept any offers made in the region of £8.6m for the 22-year-old this summer.

Ligue 1 side Marseille have been heavily linked with a move for Guendouzi, who has just 12 months remaining on his contract, and have reportedly agreed to sign him.

Since joining from Lorient in July 2018, Guendouzi has made 82 appearances for the Gunners across all competitions and won the FA Cup in 2020.
