#5 Joel Campbell
Joel Campbell has been a fringe player at Arsenal for nearly seven years now. He was signed in 2011 from Saprissa for £900k and was sent out on loan that same month to FC Lorient. Upon his return next summer, he was shipped out again - this time to Real Betis. This would turn out to be a recurring theme for Campbell, being loaned out to Olympiacos, Villarreal, Sporting CP, and Real Betis over the next four seasons.
It's quite clear that there isn't a spot for Campbell in the Arsenal team and it's highly doubtful that the 26-year-old will be part of Unai Emery's plans this season. Emery should offload the deadwood sooner rather than later, as Campbell doesn't meet the requirements to get into the starting eleven; he didn't meet them seven years ago, and he doesn't meet them now. Time to go.
Where might Joel Campbell go?
Joel Campbell himself had said back in February that he would like to secure a permanent switch to Real Betis this summer.
"My idea is to stay here for many years but those decisions are not mine, I have been lucky enough to enjoy lots of different clubs and leagues but I like it here."
Campbell's contract expires next year but he's likely to be allowed to pursue a transfer to Betis or elsewhere as the Gunners have no need to keep hold of him.
