Arsenal chief Edu is in the process of slashing squad numbers in January.
The Athletic says Arsenal are set to continue their radical squad overhaul when the January transfer window opens.
A surprisingly busy summer saw several stars arrive with comparatively few first-teamers departing.
Next month will see a concerted effort to trim the squad of the high-earning players who have not had a look in under manager Mikel Arteta.
Sporting director Edu is charged with finding new clubs for these unwanted reserves.
Not only have they cost the Gunners financially, some outcasts are reportedly causing dressing room divides over their treatment.
