Still, needs to be sold to eliminate the last few embers of Wenger's dumpster fire final season.
Mkhi wasn't Wenger's signing.
As has been mentioned two million times, Wenger lost his authority in his final season at Arsenal. On top of that, since that embarrassing title challenge in 15/16, Wenger never had the authority he did in transfers either.
There are theories that Xhaka, Mustafi, Perez, et al. were StatDNA signings authorized by Gazidis.
Wenger was never the kind to splash big money on the likes of Xhaka and Mustafi. He'd have spent £100m on Dybala. But he wasn't the kind to spend £35m on Mustafi.
It's also rumored that Wenger was against paying Oz £350k a week.
