LONDON - Arsenal are facing an exodus of stars this summer as problems mount for manager Arsene Wenger.

Star midfielder Mesut Ozil has been offered a new deal worth more than £200 000 a week but there are fears he will reject it.

Ozil, whose current deal expires at the end of next season, is stalling, although the club are still hopeful of agreeing an extension. But as is it stands the Gunners will listen to offers for the German this summer to avoid losing him for nothing next year.

And in a further blow, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who has 15 months left on his deal, is seriously considering his future.

The club are yet to open talks with Jack Wilshere - who is on loan at Bournemouth - over a new deal despite the fact his contract expires in 2018.

The club are resigned to losing Alexis Sanchez, who is refusing to sign a new deal worth £180 000 a week.

Lucas Perez is ready to quit after growing frustrated with his lack of action, while goalkeeper David Ospina is also eager for regular football.
