OGC Nice Finally Confirm The Arrival Of Nicolas Pepe From Arsenal

 After three years playing in English football, Nicolas Pepe will be moving to Nice, according to OGC Nice. The cost to the Gunners of the Ivorian international was astounding: £72 million. He will go on loan to OGC Nice for the upcoming season.

No buy option will be available for Nice, but it feels very much like Pepe's time at Arsenal is up because he hasn't been able to find his best form in London.

Over the course of his three years, Pepe made 112 appearances, contributing to 21 assists and scoring 27 goals. Due to the progressive erosion of confidence in Pepe as a starting option caused by those statistics and the ascent of Bukayo Saka, Pepe is now unnecessary for Arteta.
