After careful consideration and following discussions with the club, I feel it is the right time for me to step down at the end of the season. I am grateful for having had the privilege to serve the club for so many memorable years.

 I managed the club with full commitment and integrity. I want to thank the staff, the players, the Directors and the fans who make this club so special. I urge our fans to stand behind the team to finish on a high.

 To all the Arsenal lovers take care of the values of the club. My love and support forever.

Arsenal striker, Yaya Sanogo, 21 to join Ajax on loan for 2015/2016 season. Yaya Sanogo, French under-21 international will spend his 2015/2016 at the Amsterdam Arena.

Sanogo joined Arsenal in 2013, but has been struggling to play more games while at the club, and will likely loosing more playing time as Chuba Akpom just joined the team, and will have more game playing opportunities.

Sanogo who was on loan last season at Crystal palace will join Ajax. Speaking on his loan transfer to Ajax, Arsene Wenger told the club website;

He needs to play.He came to us injured and it took us a while to get him to the top level. He's ready to play now and I'm sure he can be a good signing for Ajax.He has an opportunity to play in the Champions League with Ajax, which is good experience. We have a good relationship with them and hopefully he can have a great season.

Arsenal football team completed the transfer of the Chile striker for a sum of £35m deal. This will make Sanchez the second most expensive player to be transferred to Arsenal. After Ozil who cost the premier league club £42.5m.

Alexis, a 25 year old, was in Barcelona for 3 seasons since he joined the Catalans in 2011. Other club interested in Alexis includes, Liverpool and Juventus.

Speaking with Arsenal.com, the Arsenal manager said:

"As many people have seen during the World Cup this summer, Alexis is a fantastic footballer and we are delighted that he is joining us at Arsenal Football Club.

Alexis will add power, creativity and much quality to our squad and we are all looking forward to him joining up with us in a few weeks. He has consistently produced top-quality performances at the highest level for a number of seasons now and we are all excited to see him integrate into the Arsenal squad. I’m sure all Arsenal supporters will join me in welcoming Alexis to our club."

 Also speaking is Sanchez, In his words

"I’m so happy to be joining Arsenal, a club which has a great manager, a fantastic squad of players, huge support around the world and a great stadium in London. I’m looking forward to meeting my new team-mates and to be playing for Arsenal in the Premier League and Champions League. I will give my best to Arsenal and want to make all the supporters happy."
