“We have some time to review what we have done as well, and the things that we have to improve as a team and as a coaching staff as well, and have a big reflection on all the departments we have across the club.
“How they are feeling as well about what we are doing, how we have set up as a club, if they have any ideas for us to improve, and we are more than welcome to help them on how the workload can be better.
“So then we make sure when we’re back, we don’t know in which condition, how long we’re going to have, we make sure we hit the ground running.”
Much of Arsenal’s summer business may depend on how much money is raised through sales, with COVID-19 expected to have a sizeable impact on the club’s finances.
And club legend Charlie Nicholas expects top goalscorer Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to be sold this summer, with his contract expiring in 2021.
He told Sporting Life: “You have to either give him what he wants to sign him up or sell to get the right money and sort out this defence once and for all.
“My preference would be to keep him but I have a feeling Arsenal will not keep him.
“If [Mesut] Ozil stays, I feel they will sell him, and they cannot afford another Aaron Ramsey saga.
“I could accept if they get good money for him, as I am not convinced he will sign, and Arsenal can then rebuild in the process.
“Arsenal would miss his goals, but I do not think they would miss him greatly as an individual player.
