Arsenal set to offload Gervinho, Chamakh

August 05, 2013 03:38 pm | Updated 03:38 pm IST - London

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said Gervinho and Marouane Chamakh are both set to leave the club before the start of the new season.

Ivory Coast forward Gervinho, who cost Arsenal 11 million pounds when he arrived from Lille in 2011, and Chamakh, who was a free transfer from Bordeaux in 2010, have failed to shine at the Emirates.

“Gervinho is on a good way to Roma and Chamakh is on a good way to Crystal Palace,” Wenger said.

Serie A side Roma are set to pay a reported 6.9 million pounds for the services of Gervinho, while the details of Chamakh’s move to Palace have yet to be agreed.
