Former Arsenal transfer chief Mislintat can't understand why Arteta offloaded Guendouzi & Torreira

Former Arsenal transfer chief Sven Mislintat has admitted that he can't understand why Mikel Arteta offloaded Matteo Guendouzi and Lucas Torreira.

Arteta deemed both Guendouzi and Torreira surplus to requirements at the start of the 2020-21 campaign, with the pair subsequently securing respective loan moves to Hertha and Atletico Madrid.

Mislintat, who oversaw the duo's arrival at Emirates Stadium in 2018, has now expressed his belief that the Gunners head coach was wrong to sanction their departure.
