Arsenal have placed at least four of their Premier League title-winning players on the transfer list as Mikel Arteta prepares to reshape the squad for next season.
The Gunners clinched their first league title since 2004 after finishing seven points ahead of Manchester City, but the club is now focused on the summer window to strengthen key positions.
Arteta is expected to bring in at least four new signings, targeting a striker, left-winger, central midfielder, and right-back to build on the team’s success.
According to the Daily Mail, Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus, and Ben White are among the players who could depart the Emirates. Martinelli, Arsenal’s longest-serving player with 278 appearances since 2019, was mostly a backup this season with just 11 Premier League starts.

Trossard had a more productive campaign, but pundits still expect Arsenal to pursue a new left-winger, with PSG’s Bradley Barcola linked to the role. White only became a regular after Jurrien Timber’s injury but missed the final weeks of the season and this summer’s World Cup through injury.
Jesus has slipped down the pecking order due to persistent injury issues, and his minutes are likely to drop further if Arsenal sign a new striker.
Meanwhile, Piero Hincapie, who started the Champions League final, has attracted interest from Barcelona. Arsenal signed the defender on loan from Bayer Leverkusen last summer and are expected to make the move permanent, despite likely rejecting approaches.
