View Arsenal summer 2026 transfer targets

Arsenal have reached a verbal agreement with Club Brugge over the transfer of winger Christos Tzolis.

The Gunners have already agreed to part ways with Leandro Trossard. He is poised to join Besiktas for £17m after a medical next week.

They have identified Tzolis as his replacement, and reports claim that they have finalised a package worth £35m to sign the 24-year-old.

Furthermore, Brugge have given the green light for a medical, and Tzolis is waiting for the Gunners’ go-ahead to secure a move.

The Greece international is likely to travel to London Colney for his formalities once Trossard officially makes the switch to Besiktas.

Tzolis had a fantastic 2025/26 season with Brugge. He registered a stunning tally of 22 goals and 29 assists in all competitions for them.

The Premier League is multiple levels above the Belgian Pro League, but Arsenal believe Tzolis can make a big impact in the division.

Tzolis has already agreed personal terms over a five-year deal.
