Arsenal’s ‘banished’ players have been filmed training separately from Mikel Arteta’s first-team squad.

Nicolas Pepe, Albert Sambi Lokonga and Nuno Tavares are among the players who have been told that their futures lie away from the Emirates Stadium.

As a result, the trio are training on their own as they look to keep their fitness up with a view to securing a transfer away.

Trying to entertain themselves in their free time, Pepe took to Snapchat with some footage from the gym at London Colney.

In the video, Lokonga could be seen lifting weights on one side of the gym, before Tavares was seen interaction with the Ivorian winger.

Pepe arrived in north London in August 2019 for a staggering fee of £72million, however he’s managed just 27 goals in 112 appearances over four years.

Tavares joined in the summer of 2021 for just £8million, making just 28 appearances in the two years since, including a loan spell with Marseille last term.

Meanwhile Lokonga has made 39 appearances for Arsenal since joining in 2021.

In January he joined fellow Premier League side Crystal Palace on a loan deal, but started just six times during his spell at Selhurst Park.

Brighton are considering a move for the 23-year-old as they look to replace now-Chelsea star Moises Caicedo.

Arsenal are desperate to sell players who are surplus to requirements after spending more than £200m on Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber.

Folarin Balogun, Kieran Tierney, Rob Holding and Cedric Soares are also thought to be on the transfer list.
