The 35-year-old looked his age and more at times on Sunday, struggling to deal with the threat of Solly March.
The Switzerland international, who has only played ten times this season and is out of contract in the summer, could be on his way out after admitting he may look for regular first-team football to give himself the best chance of appearing at Euro 2020 should his country get there.

Nacho Monreal

Granit Xhaka

The 26-year-old has made 131 appearances for the Gunners, scoring 11 goals, but could be off after failure to secure Champions League football for a third successive season.

Alexandre Lacazette
Arsenal’s Player of the Year, the Frenchman has had another impressive season, scoring 18 times in all competitions. Barcelona have been keeping tabs and have been impressed with the way he has linked up with fellow forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
Lacazette is close to Barca’s technical secretary and fellow countryman Eric Abidal and a £70m bid, plus guaranteed Champions League football and the chance to play alongside Lionel Messi, may just be too much to resist.

WHO HAS BEEN LINKED?
Ryan Fraser
