‘Why I left Arsenal’ – Edu Gaspar
Edu Gaspar has officially stepped down as Arsenal’s sporting director, announcing his decision on Monday. Edu, who joined Arsenal in 2019, played a key role in reshaping the team alongside manager Mikel Arteta, helping to turn them into title contenders.
In a statement, Edu shared why he decided to leave the Gunners, “I’ve decided it’s time to take on a new challenge. Arsenal will always have a special place in my heart. This wasn’t an easy decision to make.”
Edu is reportedly moving to join Nottingham Forest’s owner, Evangelos Marinakis. Arsenal expressed their gratitude, saying, “We’re grateful for the role Edu played in shaping our football strategy. We thank him for driving the club forward with the values of Arsenal in his heart.”
With Edu’s departure, Arsenal enters a new phase but will continue building under Mikel Arteta. The club faces Inter Milan in the Champions League on Wednesday, a match eagerly anticipated by fans as Arsenal aims to bounce back from recent struggles in the Premier League.
