Transfer: Nicolas Pepe’s new club confirmed as player finally leaves Arsenal

Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe is set to leave the Premier League this summer.

Pepe, who was linked with Saudi Arabian clubs, is now set to sign for Trabzonspor.

This was revealed by football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano on Thursday.

Romano tweeted: “Nicolas Pépé, not convinced by Saudi approaches—deal not happening, his priority is now to join Trabzonspor. Negotiations to follow in order to reach an agreement, as @footmercato called, he’s completely out of Arsenal project.”

The Ivorian has one year left on his Arsenal contract but was not expected to feature under manager Mikel Arteta again.
