ARSENAL will have to shell out at least £4million if they want to sack Unai Emery right now, it has been claimed.

Creators of the 'We Care Do You' campaign - the Arsenal Supporters Alliance - released another scathing statement to the board on Sunday after their first damning letter was published in July.

And reports suggest Arsenal chiefs are slowly coming round to the idea of sacking the 48-year-old but are wary given the compensation involved.

Emery signed a two-year-deal in the summer of 2018 with the option of a further 12 months which means the Gunners could let him go without compensation at the end of this season.

But if the North Londoners cannot wait that long, it will cost them £4m to get rid of him now, according to the .

Emery earns around £6m-a-year and - per a clause in his contract - Arsenal would have to pay him up to the end of the season now if they let him go.

Arsenal sit eighth in the Premier League and after the woeful performance against the Saints, club legend Tony Adams said it is time for a change.

He told BT Sport: “I’m just smashed to bits with the performance. At one point Ozil was sweeper, getting the ball off his keeper and trying to run it through everybody.

“The boos are deserved – it was a terrible, terrible performance, very disjointed, no defending in sight.

“That’s a really poor performance and I don’t want any coach losing his job, but the club’s not going forward, it’s not progressing.

“I can put a team together that’s more organised than that!”

Arsenal have won just two in 11 Premier League matches but Emery still believes he can turn things around.
