Arsenal were extremely productive over the summer, with plenty of incomings and outgoings at the Emirates.
Nicolas Pepe and Kieran Tierney were the two high-profile arrivals in North London, with David Luiz, Dani Ceballos and Gabriel Martinelli all linking up with the first-team squad.
William Saliba was also purchased for a large fee, before being loaned back to Saint Etienne for the season.
The Gunners sold Nacho Monreal to Real Sociedad, while Mohamed Elneny and Henrikh Mkhitaryan were sent out on loan in the final few days of the window.
And according to the Standard, cited by AFTV Media, the Gunners have shipped out a remarkable £900,000-a-week in wages over the summer, which will save the club around £50m-per-year.
And these Arsenal fans were quick to reply to the stat, with many heaping praise on the club’s transfer guru, ‘Don’ Raul Sanllehi.
