Although it was reported that Kolasinac is willing to stay and fight for his place we still think its possible to sell him this window. Mikel Arteta want to have a balance squad meaning some senior players have to make room for new players to come in. We will look at 4 reasons why selling Kolasinac will help get the balance we want.

1. He’s on 120k a week and has 2 years left on his contract. Freeing up that chunk will help us bring in players that we want like Aouar and Partey, and we will be able to afford Aubameyang’s wages.

2. He arrived with a high reputation but he never live up to his expectations. He’s very inconsistent one day he gives you a good game then he goes missing for the next 10. And he’s also full of mistakes he’s the left back Mustafi although Mustafi redeemed himself lately.

3. There is Tolaji Bola an Arsenal U23 left back. Bola is 21 he’s big and strong, and has everything in him to be Tierney’s back up for the season. This means we don’t have to spend to replace Kolasinac. As we have other backup options in Saka and AMN. If Bola is not ready to step up.

4. Keeping him won’t help us the fact he used to bench to Monreal says a lot. Him sitting on the bench watching Tierney will bring his price tag down and make it difficult for us to move him on next summer. So thanks for the memories Tank but it’s time to go.
