His impending transfer to Arsenal is all but confirmed after the Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero confirmed that the club’s versatile defensive midfielder Lucas Torreira has left the club for €30m.
This is the latest move in a very active transfer season for Unai Emery and the Gunners, who are wasting no time transforming the club after the departure of legendary manager Arsène Wenger.
The transfer of goalkeeper Bernd Leno from Bayer Leverkusen was announced earlier today. Earlier in the night, Jack Wilshere took to social media to announce his departure from the club after 17 seasons at the club.
Last week, Arsenal signed former Juventus defender Stephan Lichtsteiner on a free transfer and Granit Xhaka signed a new deal.
