ARSENAL are not famed for their selling expertise, but in the space of a day or so they are about to rake in around £75 million.

has sealed his £60 million switch to Al-Hilal in while his compatriot, , has made a shock £8.6m switch to which could end up being worth more with add-ons.

Jesus has now arrived in Spain to complete his medical and thus, his move.

Almost in the background, £34m flop Fabio Vieira has moved to Hamburg for £7.7m.

Vieira spent last season on loan at Hamburg, making 29 appearances for the club, scoring seven goals.

have also taken a big loss on Jesus. They spent £45m to prise him away from and despite a blistering start to life at the Emirates, two ACL injuries hampered his time at the club.

The Brazilian has told the Spanish press his knees are ‘perfect’ ahead of his move to the Nou Camp, but there is no doubt those injuries influenced his transfer fee.

Martinelli is where the Gunners have truly made some serious profit. The winger was 18-year-old when they signed him for just £6m.

The money is there to do so though, that much is clear – even before these sales.

Arsenal were prepared to spend big on Vinicius Jr, and still retain hope of splashing on Julian Alvarez this summer.

However, the club has spent just shy of £200m on Bruno Guimaraes, , Christos Tzolis and making Piero Hincapie’s loan deal a permanent move.

Arteta did make it clear after their final loss to PSG that he was looking for a game-changer in attack.

Now that he has let two of his front-line bodies leave, does he have a trick up his sleeve before the deadline passes at 11pm, Tuesday September 1?

Gunners fans will be hoping that man is Alvarez, but time is ticking.
