Arsenal transfer news: The Gunners are set to complete their fourth signing of the summer window with the addition of Bitello, according to ɾєρօɾτs.
Arsenalare set to make their fourth signing of the summer transfer window in the coming week, if recent ɾєρօɾτs are to be believed.
The Gunners have already made huge strides over the past few weeks to improve their squad for the upcoming season, having finished the last campaign in second and just short of the Premier League title. A lack of quality in depth may have played a huge part in that, so changes have been addressed quickly.
Kai Havertzwas the first thɾօυɢҺ the door, joining from London rivals Chelsea in a Ԁєɑł worth up to £65million, if add-ons are achieved. The 24-year-old has had an inconsistent time of it at Stamford Bridge, scoring some important goals, such as the Champions League winning strike against Manchester City, but would also struggle other weeks.
The west London outfit often opted to use the Germany international in a forward role, but it appears as thoughMikel Artetacould utilise him in midfield. That could see Havertz partnered withDeclan Rice, who joined for a club-record £105million this summer to add quality to the central ranks.
At just 24 years old, the former West Ham man has become a regular England international, won a trophy with the Hammers and became their captain. His versatility could prove to be useful as both a deeper midfielder and one in a more advanced position, leading to the huge fee paid.
Jurrien Timberis the third Ԁєɑł that has been completed, joining from Ajax in a Ԁєɑł worth up to ɾօυɢҺly £40million. The 22-year-old has impressed for the Dutch side and fits the common theme of being versatile, able to play at both centre-back and right-back with relative comfort on the ball.
Arteta has hinted at further signings this summer and the next one could be set to step thɾօυɢҺ the doors at London Colney in the coming days. That’s because, according toTuttoMercatoWeb, the Gunners are close to completing a Ԁєɑł for Gremio midfielder Bitello this week.
The ɾєρօɾτ states that a final figure of ɾօυɢҺly £6.8million has been agreed for the 23-year-old, who has drawn plenty of interest from across Europe. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal will confirm the Ԁєɑł this week, but it could be another bargain move from Brazil to help bolster their ranks.
