Arsenal head of recruitment Sven Mislintat is set to leave the Gunners after the end of this month. He was brought in by the Gunners just over a year ago and was the brains behind the deals to bring Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

He also played a part in bringing the likes of Lucas Torreira and Matteo Guendouzi to the Emirates. His work at Borussia Dortmund earned him the nickname of ‘Diamond Eye’.

But now, he is going to leave the London outfit and stated that he gained a lot of experience from Arsenal while also adding that he is excited about the future.

He said: "It's been an amazing experience to work at a great club like Arsenal in what has been a big time of change. I am excited about what the future holds for the club and am looking forward to new challenges for myself."
