CurrentReport Blog Omar Rekik is now a free agent following the termination of his contract with Arsenal by mutual agreement. The 21-year-old defender, who joined the Gunners in 2021, is no longer part of Mikel Arteta’s squad as he seeks to explore new opportunities in his career.
Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the news, stating that Rekik requested to leave Arsenal this summer. In a tweet on X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, Romano shared: “Omar Rekik, no longer an Arsenal player as contract was terminated on mutual agreement yesterday. Rekik now available as free agent after his specific request to leave and try new chapter.”
Rekik, who has also represented Tunisia at the international level, made the decision to part ways with the North London club in search of regular playing time and a fresh start elsewhere. His departure marks the end of his brief stint with Arsenal, where he struggled to break into the first team under Arteta’s management.
As a free agent, Rekik is now available to sign with any club, and his next move will be closely watched by fans and analysts alike.
