Arsenal have recalled Alzez and John Jules, two of the club's players planning to go on loan this month.
Azez and John Jules have ended their respective loan contracts over the past two days, but they are not expected to stay in the squad for long.
Mark Mann-Bryans reported that the duo are expected to join other clubs at the end of January, most likely on loan.
It would have a knock-on effect, meaning Arsenal would not be able to choose any one of them to play. FIFA rules prohibit a player from playing for three clubs in a single season, so arsenal cannot loan them to other teams if they are used.
James Benge confirmed Arsenal plan to outsource John Jules this month, adding that the club had already evaluated his options.
In addition to these two players, the news that Kolasinac has joined Marseille has been confirmed.
The two youngsters can be counted as Arsenal's players for the time being, which involves the number of people required in the game postponement rules, but it doesn't matter after the weekend.
After the match against Burnley, Arsenal will not play again until February 10, when their squad will be intact as the current injured, cop-a-nations players and suspended players return.
The number of players brought in by Arsenal (Jules, Azez and Dinzei) is basically the same as the number of departures (Barogon, Niles and Kolasinac), so it will no longer be accused of loan players purely to make up the number of players.
That's obviously a bad strategy.
Arsenal U23 right-back Brook Norton Coofi will be loaned to Lincoln City until the end of the season.
James Benge wrote on Monday that Arsenal's Norton Coofi will join Lincoln City on loan. Arsenal believe it is more valuable to fight for Playing Time in League One at the moment than to play in the Premier League Reserve League, and Lincoln City is just short of defenders.
Arsenal confirmed the news on the official website, and the loan contract will end at the end of the season. Arsenal previously worked with Lincoln City and in 2020 John Jules was loaned to the team.
The concept of Arsenal's loaned players is currently a hot topic for most media outlets, with many complaining that the club has kept young players out of the squad and postponed the game due to the thin squad.
Arsenal are currently recalling more players (5) than loaned players (3).
That statement is not relevant to the youngster's transfer, as Norton Coiffey is not counted as Arsenal's players with more game experience.
The 18-year-old will make his first steps into the senior squad and will not be counted in the total number of players who can play under the current Premier League rules for postponements.
So we can look at the positive side of the deal, which is the reward for Norton Coofi's excellent performances in U23 and U21.
He helped U21 reach the quarter-finals of the British Championship and helped U23 to a fourth place in the Premier League Reserve League.
It was only natural to use the loan period to get a taste of first-team matches.
