Greek winger; Arsenal hire adds a rising forwards profile
Arsenal has completed the signing of Greece international Christos Tzolis on a long-term contract, adding depth to the attack after Leandro Trossard’s move to Besiktas. The 24-year-old joins from Club Brugge, where he scored 43 goals and provided 45 assists in 108 appearances. He is expected to strengthen Arsenal’s options on the left and across the front line.
Chelsea has secured the England international Rogers from Aston Villa for a reported 117 million pounds, a Premier League transfer record. Rogers signs a six-year contract with an option for a further year, linking up with Chelsea’s new boss Xabi Alonso. Villa recovers the fee to reinvest in the squad as Chelsea overhaul its attack.
