Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will have to sell players before he can bring new signings to the club this summer, according to a report.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will reportedly have to sell players before he can bring new signings to the club during this summer's transfer window.

Following Wednesday's 2-1 win over Liverpool, the Gunners manager admitted that he had "big concerns" over the size of the club's transfer budget ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

According to The Mirror, due to the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak, the Spaniard must sell before he can buy in the upcoming market.

The report claims that Arsenal would lose £30m in revenue if they fail to qualify for the Europa League next season, which would further add to the club's financial problems.

The capital side are currently ninth in the Premier League table, but they would qualify for the group stages of the 2020-21 Europa League if they were to lift this season's FA Cup.

The Gunners, though, are believed to have held talks over a possible deal for free agent Malang Sarr.
