Arsenal right back Bacary Sagna understands Alexander Hleb is on his way out of Emirates Stadium, but feels Emmanuel Adebayor would leave a huge void if he followed the midfielder out of the exit door.
Hleb has made it clear that he wants to head away from London, having expressed his frustration with life in the English capital, and Barcelona are hot on his trail.
Sagna has resigned himself to seeing Hleb move on, but feels the club could find the ideal replacement in Samir Nasri.
As far as Adebayor is concerned, the French defender claims he would be less than happy to see the giant Togolese sign with another club.
“It’s part of football…we also lost Mathieu Flamini, who was an important player in midfield,” Sagna told L’Equipe about Hleb.
“That’s a shame, but I’m not worried. Samir [Nasri] should arrive soon and then there are a lot of young players knocking at the door.
“It may be a good chance for them to make the step. Then, of course if Emmanuel [Adebayor] was to leave, it’d be a massive loss.
“But we’re not there yet.”
