Arsenal still hope to move experienced attacker Willian on before the end of this summer's transfer window, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano.

Arsenal are reportedly still hoping to sell Willian before the end of this summer's transfer window.

The 33-year-old penned a three-year deal with the Gunners upon his arrival last September, but he has struggled to make his mark at the Emirates Stadium, scoring just once in 37 appearances for the club.

Willian was not involved in Arsenal's 2021-22 Premier League opener against Brentford last Friday, with it later being revealed that the attacker has been sidelined with coronavirus.

According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal are hoping to find a solution for the Brazilian before this summer's transfer window closes for business.

Romano claims that the North London outfit, who are next in Premier League action against Chelsea on Sunday, are also open to offers for Hector Bellerin and Lucas Torreira.

Willian scored 63 times and registered 62 assists in 339 appearances for Chelsea over the course of seven years before leaving the Blues on a free transfer, having failed to reach an agreement over a new deal.
