Derby County's relegation to League One is already a foregone conclusion, leaving several former Arsenal academy players with future choices.
Despite 13 wins and 13 draws this season, derby County, with three games remaining, is 10 points away from safe zone.
The club's relegation will be a huge blow to several Gunners, with Plage, Klestian Berwick and Malcolm Ebivi all playing for Derby County this season.
Since joining the Derby County first team, 19-year-old goalscorer Plainger has performed well, contributing four goals and two assists after making his debut in December. He joined Derby County from Arsenal in the summer of 2021.
Fortunately, his future is already set. His early performances gave him a move to Crystal Palace in the winter window, where he is currently only on loan back to Derby County.
Next up is Berwick, whose contract expires in 2024. The defender has received high reviews, but a string of injury problems has limited his playing time.
Berwick is one of the most expensive signings in Derby County's history and the team may be hoping to recoup some of the costs from him in the summer window.
An unfortunate fact is that Derby May need to sell Berwick to raise funds to pay the transfer fee for arsenal players. Of that £10 million cost, they still owe a significant portion.
In recent months, 18-year-old Malcolm Ebivi has been the team's main player. He has started eight consecutive Games in the Championship since 5 March and looks like he is growing into the kind of player he would have hoped for before leaving Arsenal in 2020.
He also has the possibility of leaving the team as the contract expires at the end of the season. Derby county want to keep him and renew his contract, but it seems unlikely at the moment.
While the arsenal veterans have done well, none of them will remain in the squad when the League One starts next season.
