Opta Profile: Martin Zubimendi – The new man in Arsenal's midfield

The summer transfer window rolls on as Premier League clubs and those around Europe look to add to their squads.

Arsenal appear to finally be making progress on the protracted Viktor Gyokeres deal, having reached a complete agreement on personal terms with the striker and now just battling Sporting over the structure of the fee. They finally completed the Martin Zubimendi deal on Sunday and a medical is planned for incoming Brentford midfielder Christian Norgaard.

The Gunners are also hoping to secure a deal for Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera after the La Liga outfit rebuffed their initial offer. They have sights on Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze, although face competition from Tottenham – who have had a bid for Mohammed Kudus rejected by West Ham.

Manchester United secured Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5m early in this window and have now nabbed teenage Paraguayan defender Diego Leon. They are negotiating with Brentford about Bryan Mbeumo and are also stunningly targeting released Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, while Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho face exits from the club.

Elsewhere, Chelsea have signed Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund in a £55m deal for the former England Under-21 winger. The Blues have confirmed to signing of Brighton’s Brazil forward Joao Pedro. Newcastle are also making moves and have stepped up their pursuit of Nottingham Forest’s Anthony Elanga by submitting a second offer close to £55m.

Burnley and Crystal Palace target agrees terms elsewhere

Besiktas have agreed the terms of a season-long loan deal with Napoli for Jens Cajuste, who was of interest to Burnley and Crystal Palace.

It’s now up to Besiktas must now find an agreement with the player, who has not yet travelled to Turkey, according to Sky Sports News.
