Arsenal have completed the signing of talented young defender Joel Lopez from Barcelona. The 16-year-old, who has been heavily linked with the club in recent months, will initially go into Arsenal’s U18 squad. Lopez has signed scholarship terms and will put pen to paper on a professional deal in March when he turns 17. Arsenal are really getting a lot of good deal done and for the youths, the future is very bright for the gunners.

France international, Matteo Guendouzi has joined Arsenal from French Ligue 2 side, Lorient for £7million . Though Arsenal wanted to sign a similar player some weeks back from PSG but it did not just work. The 19-year-old, who started his career in Paris Saint-Germain’s academy, joined Lorient in 2014 and made his first-team debut, aged 17 in 2016. Guendouzi made 30 appearances for Lorient during his time at the club and will wear the number 29 shirt at the Emirate club. Speaking after signing for the Gunners, Guendouzi said he felt good joining his childhood club. “I want to become part of the club’s history and to achieve great things here,” Guendouzi told Arsenal’s official website. “Arsenal have always been the team closest to my heart and a side I’ve wanted to join since I was a child.” France international, Matteo Guendouzi has joined Arsenal from French Ligue 2 side, Lorient for £7million .

The 22-year-old officially completed his £26.4 million move from Sampdoria this week after postponing his transfer because of the tournament. Arsenal were keen to complete the medical in Russia but the midfielder opted to delay proceedings until Uruguay’s run in the World Cup was over. Emery, however, ensured that Arsenal wouldn’t lose out on Torreira after deciding to speak with the midfielder before the start of Uruguay’s campaign in Russia. And Torreira admits he was ‘nervous’ about talking to Arsenal’s new manager. ‘When he called me, I could not believe it,’ Torreira told Ovacion. ‘I was in a hotel with a friend, and I got nervous. ‘It was difficult for me to talk because receiving the call from a coach of such an important team generates many things. The Midfielder will be wearing No. 11 Jersey used by fellow team mate Mesut Ozil, we all wish you a prosperious career in Arsenal.

Arsenal have completed their third signing of this summer transfer window as Sokratis Papadopoulos has agreed to join the Gunners. The Gunners have done a real good business in this summer transfer window as they are looking to strengthen their side to compete for the top four positions in the Premier League in the next season. Unai Emery has become the new manager of the Gunners after Arsene Wenger and he is trying to build a rock solid team for the next season. The Gunners were very much unbalanced in the defense as there was no proper leader in the defense for the Gunners. Laurent Koscielny was injured in fair amount of time for the Gunners in the previous season. Shkodran Mustafi was not comfortable against the top sides. That’s why, the defensive unit of the Gunners were looking vulnerable most of the times in the previous season. It was one of the reasons of their downfall in recent years. Unai Emery has been trying to reconstruct the defensive unit of the Gunners since the day o

The deal is done.  Bernd Leno was set to join Arsenal on Tuesday and this evening both clubs have confirmed the deal. Leno, 26, joins for a fee of around £20million and has signed a long-term contract, thought to be 5 years long. It is thought that David Ospina will leave the club this summer and leave Leno to compete with Petr Cech for the number one spot at the club. It's really going well for the gunners in this transfer window as the club expect to bring in more signings which can be a defender, winger and a midfielder.

The 17-year-old midfielder is widely regarded as one of the brightest prospects in European football. Adli reportedly rejected the offer of a professional contract from PSG, which means he would be able to officially sign a deal with Arsenal when he turns in July.  Arsenal would have to pay a €255,000 (£223,000) compensation fee to PSG in order to sign Adli. According to RMC Sport, the midfielder has committed to a three-year contract with Arsenal, which also has the option for a further two seasons.  The report claims that Arsenal had been in talks with Adli even before Unai Emery was appointed as Arsene Wenger’s replacement, and the midfielder was ‘seduced’ by the Gunners’ proposal. Adli was given his senior debut by Emery this season as he came on as a late substitute in PSG’s final game of the season against Caen.  Adli has represented France at various youth levels and provided the most assists at the Under-17 World Cup last October.

Arsenal want to sign Corentin Tolisso from Bayern Munich for £60m, according to reports in Italy, despite the midfielder only moving to Germany last summer. CalcioInsider claim Unai Emery wants to sign the 23-year-old to strengthen his midfield. They say a Bayern source tells them the new head coach wants to spend £60m on the player, but the German club don’t want to let him go. With Santi Cazorla leaving, in addition to Francis Coquelin and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Arsenal’s list of central-midfield options is growing ever smaller. Should Jack Wilshere or Aaron Ramsey leave this summer, or both, the situation would become even more urgent. Tolisso is certainly someone who could fill the gap and improve the team. Unless Ramsey does leave and bring in a big fee, I can’t see Arsenal having the funds to convince Bayern to sell though. The midfielder reached double figures for goals in 2017/18, scoring 10 and assisting seven in 40 appearances. Given his age, I’d imagine the Bundesliga
