admin The latest Arsenal transfer news as Cedric has confirmed that he will be leaving the club at the end of his contract after four years at the Emirates Stadium
Arsenal defender Cedric Soares has confirmed that he will leave the club this summer, with David Raya and William Saliba among those to respond to the news. Cedric has been with Arsenal since joining from Southampton in the summer of 2020.
He spent the second half of last season on loan with fellow Premier League side Fulham and has found game time limited on his return to the Emirates Stadium this season, playing just three times in the league. The 32-year-old is out of contract this summer, and he has now confirmed that he won’t be extending his stay with the club. The full-back has taken to social media to send a message to the club and fans less than 24 hours after the final game of the season.
“What a Team and what a Club,” he wrote on Instagram along with a video of his time at Arsenal.
“When I say a team, I mean exactly that, quality in every player, the professionalism that you show and the amazing human beings you guys are, so thank you!
