Arsenal may not be able to bring in any defensive recruits but they could see one of their defenders leave before the European transfer market closes.

The man in question happens to be Nacho Monreal who according to various sources could be on the move.

Marco Sande of COPE reported the possibility a couple of days ago before Marca followed the story up by saying he could move to Real Sociedad.

However, it was a piece of news that left many Arsenal fans rather baffled on Twitter as they reacted to the events that were playing out.

One said they couldn't understand the move because of concerns over Kieran Tierney's fitness. The left back is currently out with a groin issue and isn't due back until October.

Another said it would be a very risky transfer because it would only leave one man in Sead Kolasinac fit enough to play in that role.

A further fan labelled it as a big mistake.

Monreal has played in all three of Arsenal's Premier League matches so far but is only managing an average rating of 6.62 per WhoScored.

Here's the best of the discussion.
