Former Arsenal winger Jimmy Carter says they could handle the sale of Lucas Torreira.

Earlier this month, the Uruguay international cast doubt over his long-term future at the club by admitting he's struggled to settle in London.

This has sparked the interest of AC Milan.

Carter told Goal: "I don't think it was a perfect season for Torreira. He started the season very well but he seemed to tire as it went on.

“He has the World Cup so I think that took its toll later on in the season for him. I think what you get with Torreira is that he sticks his foot in, makes it difficult for the opposition and he is going to be tenacious.

“That's what you get from him, he isn't going to create a lot but he scored a great goal in the North London derby.

"He is not the most creative player. I would give him another year unless he is really unsettled and he wants to move to AC Milan.

"If he tells Unai Emery he wants to go back to Italy then Arsenal could let him go but then he would need replacing. You can't sell everyone."
