He’s still looking for a way out too as it’s unlikely he’ll be partꦜ of the club’s Premier League or Champions League squads.

Nicolas Pepe has been on Arsenal’s uౠnwanted list for some time as he’s not in Arteta’s pla🦩ns.

Crook has now suggested that Arsenal will hav𒀰e to make a contribution to Pepe’s contract whenever he move𒈔s on.

It’s not an ideal situation, but it’s still better than paying ꦡhis wage i♚n full.

Arsenal will have to make Pepe contribution

Speaking about th💯e 28-year-old’s future, : “I think Nicolas Pepe despite the fact that it hasn’t really worked out for him at Arsenal, obviously came with a massive transfer fee of more than £70m, albeit paid of🐻f in several years’ worth of instalments.

“He’s one of the top earners as I understa☂nd it at the Emirates and I think Arsenal, as I understand it, will ♏have to make a significant contribution to his wages.

“He’s got nine months left on his contꦡract, I’m suꦓre those discussions are taking place, I know they are in fact to try and find a solution.

“As you say th💜ere’s been interest from Turkey, I think Besiktas is a genuine possible destination for Pepe.”

His move to t💞h💟e Emirates has not gone to plan with the Gunners overspending and Pepe underdelivering.
