Bayer Leverkusen show interest in Sead Kolasinac

Bayer Leverkusen are interested in signing Arsenal left-back Sead Kolasinac and the Gunners are ready to let him leave, according to a report from the Evening Standard.

Given that Kieran Tierney is Arsenal’s first choice at left-back and that both Bukayo Saka and Ainsley Maitland-Niles are also potential options to play there too, Mikel Arteta is happy to let Kolasinac leave as he looks to generate some funds and free up some space on the wage bill for some more potential signings.

Given that he played Maitland-Niles at left-back against Fulham, it does look like Arteta has made up his mind on Kolasinac so it does make sense for Arsenal to cash in on the full-back.

Kolasinac has had a great attitude ever since signing for Arsenal and hasn’t let anybody down but if the manager has no intention of picking him, then a sale to Leverkusen makes sense for all parties involced.

matchday.
