I know I have made a big mistake in the past but this is me here pleading for forgiveness and for the board to approve my return,I really owe this club a lot”, Another Arsenal player who left EMIRATE because of small Issues He had with Arteta is now pleading with the board to approve His return now – Not Gnabry and not Lacazette

In a moment of raw emotion that has captured the attention of Arsenal fans around the world, a former Gunner has stepped forward with a heartfelt plea—begging the club for forgiveness and asking the board to approve his sensational return to North London.

 

The unnamed player—whose identity remains under wraps for now—spoke at an unannounced press briefing that left journalists and supporters stunned. With tears in his eyes and a tremble in his voice, he admitted that leaving Arsenal was the biggest mistake of his career.

 

“I know I have made a big mistake in the past,” he said. “But this is me here today, standing before the fans, the media, and the Arsenal board—pleading for forgiveness and for the opportunity to return. I really owe this club a lot.”

 

The player reportedly left Arsenal over what has been described by sources as “minor issues” with manager Mikel Arteta during the club’s transitional phase. At the time, tensions were high, and Arsenal was undergoing a major rebuild under Arteta’s leadership. Misunderstandings, misjudgments, and pride may have gotten in the way of what could’ve been a longer, more successful spell at the Emirates.

 

Despite speculation, the player quickly clarified that he is not Serge Gnabry or Alexandre Lacazette—two big names that have left the club in the past. This revelation has ignited a firestorm of theories on social media, with names like Matteo Guendouzi, Mesut Özil, and Emiliano Martínez dominating online discussions.

 

Fans and pundits alike are trying to piece the puzzle together. The clues? He left during Arteta’s early reign, had promise, experienced a public or behind-the-scenes fallout, and now regrets how it all ended.

 

Sources close to the club suggest that this player has undergone a personal transformation since leaving Arsenal. He reportedly watched from afar as the team grew under Arteta, developing into a Premier League title contender. Witnessing the rise of young stars like Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard, and William Saliba made the pain of leaving all the more bitter.

 

“There were issues—yes,” a source familiar with the situation revealed. “But nothing that couldn’t have been resolved. It was just bad timing, youthful impatience, and miscommunication. And now, he wants to put things right.”

 

So far, Mikel Arteta has declined to comment directly on this specific situation. However, in a recent press conference, he did address the broader idea of former players seeking a return.

 

“We always want players who want to fight for the badge,” Arteta said. “But every case is different, and every return must make sense for the club.”

 

Fans are split over the possible return. Many are willing to forgive, believing in redemption and second chances. Others are more cautious, warning that Arsenal cannot afford distractions as they chase major trophies again.

 

“If he’s truly sorry and he still has the quality, why not?” tweeted one Arsenal supporter. “Look at Granit Xhaka—he turned it around after nearly leaving. People grow. People change.”

 

But another fan was less forgiving: “We’re building something strong under Arteta. Bringing back old drama could derail the project. If the boss says no, then it’s a no.”

 

Inside the boardroom, the situation is reportedly being treated with sensitivity. Club officials are said to be reviewing not only the footballing side of the decision but the emotional and symbolic impact as well. A well-handled return could boost morale and fan connection. A mishandled one could stir up past tensions.

 

As the new season looms large and the final stages of the summer transfer window unfold, Arsenal is under pressure to finalize their squad. Whether or not this player’s name is on that final list remains to be seen.

 

But one thing is undeniable: his words have struck a chord.

 

“I just want one more chance to fight for this badge,” he said, visibly choked up. “If the door is opened, I promise—I won’t let the club down again.”

 

In a footballing world often dominated by contracts, egos, and headlines, this is a rare moment of sincerity. Whether the board and Mikel Arteta accept his plea remains a mystery. But to many, it feels like a story of unfinished business—one that might just find its final chapter back at the Emirates Stadium.
