Arsenal risk transfer shame after Per Mertesacker's "inspiration" Bukayo Saka's claim
A transfer could be very damaging, as Per Mertesacker said back in October that he was an "inspiration" to the club.
There has been a rumor about a move away from the team.
It could cause major problems for Mikel Arteta, as well as leave Per Mertesacker with an egg on his face if there is a move away from the club this summer.
The 20-year-old is seen as the future along with fellow academy graduate Emile Smith Rowe after he was selected as the player of the season. The emergence of their youth stars has kept a sense of optimism about what is to come.
Despite being the golden boy of the club, it appears that Saka may want to move away from the club with both Manchester City and Liverpool interested in him. It could cause other kids to follow in the footsteps of the 'role model' for the academy.

No player has played more for Arteta than Saka, as he has been the main star in the team. Mertesacker said in October that the 20-year-old could not be distracted and that Saka was an 'inspiration'.
According to the Daily Mail, Saka is only willing to sign a new deal if a release clause is included If the right team approaches him in the transfer market, he doesn't want to be held back, that's what this suggests.
This is worrying for the club as it could lead to other youth stars following in the footsteps of Saka, who is an inspiration to them. The club has been known for being coy during contract discussions before, and Mertesacker's comments show how unaware they were of this situation.
Per Mertesacker gave a glowing assessment of the man.

"Bukayo has the mindset of a lifelong learner and I can only compliment his parents for raising a son who is so respectful and so disciplined," Mertesacker said. He is an inspiration who always stays true to himself along the bumpy path and has not been distracted by the shiny things that will come to him such as contracts and money.

"He has never lost sight of the fact that he is fortunate to work under such privileged circumstances, and those principles will last longer than any contract that he might sign." It seems that the failure to qualify for the playoffs may have changed Saka's stance on staying.
The star has the right to move on to better things if he can't get what he wants. It could cause a domino effect, with other academy stars potentially considering a future away from the club too.
The role model that Flores sees as being a role model is Bukayo Saka.
The Mexican star is on the verge of breaking into the first team. In an interview with Goal in 2020, he said that he was a good role model for himself. We chat a lot and he is the best person to talk to.
He worked very hard to get to where he is. He gives me advice and shares his own experiences so I'm prepared. They should use this as a wake-up call as Saka still has two years left on his deal.
Arteta's progress could become undone if they don't strengthen and try to get back into the Champions League. If the team doesn't move forward, he is likely to be off, and he may not be the only talent to leave.
Mikel Arteta has played more players than any other.
Don't look at it.
The immediate concerns regarding Saka's contract must be a priority, even though the club has been linked with a lot of stars. According to reports, the situation will be resolved, and the bosses are looking to discuss the matter after the summer break.
Losing him would be the biggest blow of them all, and it could be that what the club does between now and then shapes his future at the club. For the sake of the club, they cannot let that happen.
They splashed out £150million on six new signings last year, and are expected to spend more this year. It's important to keep what they have and bring in new faces.
