"Arsenal" captain T. Vermaelen could leave

Bacary Sagna can be followed by another defender from London's Arsenal club. It is announced that the Belgian Thomas Vermaelen may leave the team.

For some time now, the footballer who has lost the competition for a place in the starting lineup is looking for a new team where he could constantly compete in the main squad.

The contract of the captain of the Arsenal club with the team expires next summer, so potential buyers could acquire the player for a lower amount.

If T. Vermaelen leaves the team, coach Arsene Wenger will have to look for a new center-back. Among the mentioned candidates to fill the gap in the center back position is the name of Angelo Ogbonna, who plays for Juventus.

According to the latest reports, Manchester United is trying to attract T. Vermaelen to their ranks.

Belgian, aged 28, appeared on the pitch with Arsenal's jersey 21 times last season.
