Paolo Di Canio reckons Arsenal sold £6m player this summer because he’s simply not smart enough

Italian icon Paolo Di Canio has weighed in on one player Mikel Arteta sold during the summer transfer window.
Arsenal sold three players during the summer, making a minimal amount on those allowed to go to other clubs.
While Lokonga left permanently to join Fabio Vieira at Hamburg, Nuno Tavares’ Arsenal journey came to an end, as the defender signed for Lazio after impressing on loan.
Arsenal sold Tavares for just £6m, a fee that Di Canio thinks was acceptable after watching the full-back in action.
