Lucas Perez wants to leave Arsenal

According to his agent Lucas Perez is set to quit the Emirates this summer after becoming frustrated over a lack of opportunities. In August, Perez moved to the Emirates Stadium from Deportivo La Coruna for a fee believed to be in the region of £17m.

The 28-year-old found his chances severely limited, with Perez starting just twice in the Premier League in 2016-17. He suffered with a thigh injury in March but even when he returned to full fitness he failed to make a single matchday squad, before being named on the bench for the FA Cup final win over Chelsea.

He was Arsenal's fifth-most expensive signing when joining last summer but now his agent, Rodrigo Fernandez Lovelle, says his intention is to leave.

He said “The idea is to be able to play for another club. We want to leave and Arsenal already know. Do you know anyone who is happy but has no opportunities?”
