Hi Ed with you saying Arsenal are wanting to sell Lacazette does that mean we are not interested in selling Aubamalongadingdong as you call him? And is there interest in either that you know of? Thanks in advance COYG ( couldn`t find any recent info on search )

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal are willing to sell Lacazette. As for Aubameyangadingdong, Arsenal were kind enough to give him a nice new contract not too long ago - it is unclear why, but coming up to 42 it would not have given a boost to or protected his value meaning that which he sucks £350k a week out of the club the future is pretty bleak unless he wants to move to China or to Turkey. Dropping wages and seeing his time out in the graveyard of elderly strikers at Inter Milan or perhaps Manchester United might be an option but there is no obvious interest. Arsenal can always sell Nketiah still.}

Thanks Ed seems we are stuck with Auba - which I`m happy about but realise I`m probably in a minority! Hoping he bangs in 20 plus goals next season. Shame about Laca but get impression he is one of the unhappy players you mentioned COYG.

Nice info Ed, what clubs are interested in Eddie Nkettiah?

{Ed002's Note - Eddie Nketiah (S) Will look to other options in the summer. Bayer Leverkusen and West Ham might provide one, Leeds perhaps another.}

Thanks Ed, I think Leeds could be a good place for Eddie. Was actually expecting Brighton to be interested but does not seem so.

{Ed002's Note - Eddie Nketiah (S) Brighton interest is from the coach rather than the Director of Football who much prefers two others - and there is no guarantee that the coach will stay.}

That's quite intriguing. Just out of curiosity, are spurs/ Everton interested in Potter? (I can almost hear you type - "It is not important") Cheers anyways ed.

{Ed002's Note - He is an option for Spurs.}

Good Afternoon Ed,

Another day, another name in the mix for Arsenal.

Is Andre Silva of interest and can you provide an update on the situation with Lacazette please? Is there any interest or do Arsenal wish to offer him a new deal?

Thank you.

{Ed002's Note - Andre Silva (S) was recommended to several clubs, certainly including Everton and Manchester United, by a very high-end independent scout who used to play in the Premier League. This dates back to last summer before his loan became a permanent move. I expect that Atletico Madrid will look to him and previous interest of the likes of Wolverhampton and Arsenal will have gone - although Arsenal do want an Lacazette replacement and could yet consider him. My expectation is that he will also be offered to Manchester United as a Cavani replacement for next year and they will have the opportunity to ease him in. I also expect Real Madrid to look at him as a potential Mariano Diaz replacement and look to use Luka Jovic as part of the deal. Outside chance that Manchester City could look to him but not as first choice.}

Excellent info, thank you Ed.

Do you expect us to try and move Lacazette on or let his contract run down? Obviously a replacement is very much subject to sales and other signings that are made. There isn't exactly many rumours of clubs looking at him either.

{Ed002's Note - Arsenal want to sell him.}

Great info Ed thank you.

I know your not here to answer constant questions but Could I ask. If Arsenal are looking to sell Lacazette do we have targets in mind to replace him? Or are we looking to promote what we already have? ie Balogun, Martinelli

Thanks in advance mate and appreciate the info ofcourse.
