Arsenal's technical director, Edu, dominated the headline on Monday when he talked about transfer strategies and how to avoid the costly mistakes that have plagued clubs in recent years.
He doesn't intend to sell Bukayo Saka right away, but his comments may have surprised Gunners club record holder Nicolas Pepe. Former Lille Ace hasn't responded to his price tag in northern London and has expressed his desire to make his time at Emirates a success, but is believed to be available this summer.

Edu used Bukayo Saka to give Arsenal amazing insights into his transfer strategy to explain how he intends to replace players who may be sold in the future. The Gunners technical director oversaw the busy summer, but he downplayed how active the club would be only in the transfer market earlier this year.
Meanwhile, Saka has a contract term of less than two years, leading rival Premier League clubs to look for a versatile England national team. Edu claims that the 20-year-old kid doesn't go anywhere, but for players leaving Emirates, he's already used him as an example to emphasize the importance of being replaced.
"If you sell, you don't know, Bukayo Saka-it won't happen, but that's just one example," Edu said. "If you want to sell Bukayo Saka, you have to get his replacement right away as a club. So you have to have someone on your team or manage the market well. So if we sell, he has to Yes, there is someone. "" I will replace it with a model immediately. "
A storm may have been brewed in northern London, as Edu and Nicolas Pepe appear to be in conflict about his future. Côte d'Ivoire winger is finally determined to prove himself after spending three seasons at Arsenal after earning £ 72m from Lille.
However, Edu seemed to imply that Pepe had no future with the Gunners. This isn't surprising at all, as the 27-year-old is so closely associated with this summer's move. In Arsenal's candid verdict on past transfer crimes, the Brazilian said: If the players are over 26 years old, well paid and not performing well, they will kill you. "
