Arsenal star Pablo Mari wanted by Serie A minnows Monza with his agent heading to Italy for talks after official offer
ARSENAL defender Pablo Mari could be set for a move to AC Monza with his agent heading to Italy, according to reports.
Mari, 28, spent the second half of last season out on loan at Serie A side Udinese.
And he could be set to remain in the league but switch to newly promoted Monza.
SunSport exclusively revealed that the Spaniard is one of eleven players Mikel Arteta is looking to get rid of this summer.
Mari has fallen way down the pecking order at Arsenal with Ben White, Gabriel Magalhaes, William Saliba and Rob Holding all ahead of him.
He first arrived in North London on loan from Brazilian outfit Flamengo in 2020 before he made his transfer permanent.
