Former Chelsea manager **Mauricio Pochettino** has taken aim at Arsenal’s transfer business, branding the club *“foolish”* for letting a now world-class player walk away for nothing in 2022.
In a passionate statement, Pochettino expressed disbelief over the Gunners’ decision:
> *“Arsenal were foolish for selling him. They sold him for free and now he has become the best player in the world. He’s at the very top, and it’s so sad they let him go cheaply like that.”*
The unnamed player, who once slipped through Arsenal’s fingers, has since exploded onto the world stage—establishing himself as a global star and one of the most feared talents in football.
For Arsenal fans, this revelation is a bitter pill to swallow. To lose a player of such caliber for nothing is not just a financial blunder, but a sporting one that could haunt the club for years.
As debates rage on about Arsenal’s transfer decisions, one thing is certain: this player’s meteoric rise will keep fueling discussions about “the one that got away.”
