Arsenal Transfer Negotiator, Dick Law, Leaves Club

Arsenal's chief transfer negotiator Dick Law is stepping down from his position. Law, who has operated in a de facto sporting director role for eight years, is leaving the Emirates amicably and for family reasons. Law is originally from the USA and is expected to return to his native country once his role has ended.
It is understood the club have not yet decided whether to replace him, having hired former Team Sky legal expert Huss Fahmy in July to handle contract negotiations. The move comes just days after a challenging transfer window ended for the Gunners, in which they failed to land principle targets Kylian Mbappe and Thomas Lemar, lost Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, but kept hold of Alexis Sanchez.

Law is thought to have a close relationship with boss Arsene Wenger and has helped bring in stars such as Mesut Ozil, Petr Cech and Alexandre Lacazette among many others during his time at the club.
