Amid Arsenal’s interest in new players this summer, the club are also selling some of their players to other clubs.

A recent report has revealed the Gunners are willing to let their midfielder Sambi Lokonga leave for their Premier League rival Burnley.

Lokonga has not been active for the Gunners since joining them from Anderlecht in 2021.

The 23-year-old midfielder managed just 12 league starts in his first season of English football while scoring two goals in his second season for the Gunners.

Owing to his lack of game time, he was loaned to Premier League side Crystal Palace during the second half of last season.

However, he was unable to become a regular in Palace’s line-up, starting just six matches for the club.

But Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has shown interest in Lokonga, and he is keen on working with the player next season.
