Arsenal chiefs are frustrated with their inability to find buyers for their fringe players.
The Daily Mail says outcasts Andrey Arshavin, Sebastien Squillaci, Nicklas Bendtner, Denilson and Marouane Chamakh all earn in-excess of £50,000-per-week - but still remain on the club's books.
Andre Santos, who earns in the region of £45,000-per-week, signed for Gremio on-loan this week.
