The former Lille player fell out of Arsenal’s first eleven team following the arrival of Mikel Arteta who had a set of characters he was looking forward in a player.
In what was a mass exodus and recruit at Emirate, Mikel brough in a number of young players who are slowly fulfilling his project and ambition for the club.
After spending a season on loan, Pepe is set to leave the club joining the likes of Rob Holding who have sealed permanent transfers.
