Arsenal provide transfer 'clue' with latest club website update

Arsenal may have given a 'clue' as to which players could leave the Emirates Stadium this summer with the newest update to their club website.

The Gunners have got their pre-season campaign underway in the United States, defeating the MLS All Stars 5-0 on Wednesday evening.

It was a great way to kick off their tour, with new signings Kai Havertz, Jurrien Timber and Declan Rice all impressing.

Their pre-season campaign continues on Saturday with a tough test against Manchester United, with both sides potentially being at full strength.

Pre-season has also seen Arsenal unveil both their home and away kits for the new season, with the latter worn during the win over Wayne Rooney's All Stars side.

And the announcement of the new kits has led to the club updating their official website with fresh player profiles - although some players have not seen their portraits changed.

Arsenal club website could provide transfer 'clue'

The Gunners have now updated their site with most first team players - still at the club - now wearing the club's new home shirt.

Players who were out on loan last season, such as Cedric and Auston Trusty, also have new portraits.

But there are a number of notable absentees. Nuno Tavares, Albert Sambi Lokonga, Nicolas Pepe and Folarin Balogun are all without updates.

Balogun's absence is particularly notable, given that he featured in the 5-0 win over the All Stars.

Youngsters Arthur Okonkwo and Marquinhos also have last season's photos, which has led to speculation that they may be loaned out again this season.

According to journalist Alfredo Pedulla, Inter Milan want to sign Balogun but are refusing to meet Arsenal's £50 million asking price for the striker.

And Spanish outlet Relevo claimed that PSG are interested in signing Tavares after his loan spell at fellow Ligue 1 side Marseille, but these claims were later refuted by RMC Sport. The Portuguese full-back's future remains unclear.
