Dinos Mavropanos will leave Arsenal permanently this summer but the defender has yet to be subject of any formal interest, football.london understands.
Borussia Dortmund and West Ham have both monitored Mavropanos' progress in Germany, with a number of European clubs interested in signing the Greek international next summer. However, football.london has learned that no official contact has been made with the player's representatives or respective clubs over a summer move.
football.london understands that Arteta had doubts over Mavropanos' ball distribution, despite the Greek international's impressive passing statistics in the Bundesliga last season.

Mavropanos, the 23-year-old centre-back, was nominated Bundesliga Rookie of the Month in February. Stuttgart paid a €500,000 loan fee for Mavropanos and they have an obligation to buy him for €3million (£2.5m) next summer.
That option isn't valid if Stuttgart are relegated whilst they also have an option to buy if they don't reach their team objectives this season.
"I feel a special connection to them and that means a lot to me," said Mavropanos in January.
"The support they give to me, but especially to the whole team, is great. That gives you a real boost on the field. I don't know what the future will bring, but I know that I feel incredibly comfortable at VfB.
"I'm really enjoying my time in Stuttgart, the environment is fantastic - of course I can imagine staying here for a long time."
Mavropanos has scored five goals in 30 appearances for Stuttgart this season.
