Overview
- Leandro Trossard completed his move to Besiktas this week, leaving Arsenal with a clear left‑wing vacancy and immediate need for attacking depth.
- Christos Tzolis has told Arsenal he wants the move and club‑to‑club talks are expected to advance with a likely fee reported around £30m–£35m.
- Arsenal have been linked with RB Leipzig winger Antonio Nusa and could open with an offer near €40m, which is well below Leipzig’s reported €60m asking price.
- The club retain a longstanding interest in Bruno Guimaraes as a midfield upgrade but face a large valuation gap after Newcastle signalled a price of about £100m.
- Sporting director Andrea Berta is working to generate funds from departures while Arsenal balance pragmatic, lower‑risk signings and pursuit of marquee names such as Julian Alvarez and Morgan Rogers.
