Here is how the senior players loaned out by Arsenal in the summer and winter windows have performed at their respective clubs:
Karl Hein: The Estonian goalkeeper is currently on a season-long loan at Werder Bremen, where he has faced a challenging battle for the starting spot in the Bundesliga. While he has predominantly served as a backup on the bench recently, he did earn a start against Bayern Munich earlier in the season, making eight saves despite a heavy defeat.
Jakub Kiwior:Playing for Porto, the defender has been in exceptional form and has become a vital part of a defence that conceded just four league goals before the turn of the year. He has showcased his importance across domestic league and cup competitions, helping Porto maintain their position at the top of the table, and has started five of their seven league phase matches in the Europa League.
Oleksandr Zinchenko: His loan spell at Nottingham Forest has been difficult due to recurring injury issues and limited playing time under various managers. Recent reports indicate that Arsenal are ready to sanction a new move to Ajax for the remainder of the season, either on loan or in a permanent deal with a short-term contract at the Amsterdam club.
Fabio Vieira: Currently at Hamburg, the midfielder has become a regular fixture in their starting line-up and recently provided an important assist in a win against Werder Bremen. Although he faced a brief period of absence due to a red card suspension, he has since returned to play full matches in the Bundesliga.
Reiss Nelson: The winger is spending the season at Brentford, where his impact has been restricted by fitness issues and intense competition for places. He has primarily been used as a late substitute in the Premier League, though he managed to score a goal during an EFL Cup appearance earlier in the campaign.
Those were the five summer exits, but Arsenal have also sent Ethan Nwaneri out on loan in January. After joining Marseille on a temporary deal, the teenager enjoyed a dream debut by scoring just 13 minutes after coming off the bench. His immediate impact helped Marseille secure a vital win, suggesting he will play a significant role in their push for the Ligue 1 title.
