Arsenal would SELL Nicolas Pepe in January 'if they could', claims Paul Merson

Arsenal forward Nicolas Pepe is already in the last chance saloon at the club, according to Paul Merson - who has tipped them to offload their struggling star and take a huge hit on his transfer fee.

Pepe arrived for an eye-watering £72million from Lille in 2019, a move which saw them smash their transfer record, but he has since failed to hit the same heights as his time in France and remains a source of frustration for fans.

And as such, Merson believes his lack of consistency may spell the end of his time at the Emirates just over two years since he was snapped up.
