Arsenal are continuing their efforts to strengthen their attack after adding Christos Tzolis to their squad from Club Brugge, with their next attacking target potentially coming from La Liga.
The Gunners have improved their squad by bringing in some of the finest names in the game and have continued to demonstrate their ability to identify and sign talented players. Their manager has also shown an ability to keep new arrivals committed to the club's ambitions.
Arsenal are determined to keep improving their squad and have identified two World Cup winners as potential additions. The club believes further attacking reinforcements could help them compete at the highest level across domestic and European competitions.
According to Metro Sport, the Gunners still want to sign either Nico Williams or Ferran Torres during this transfer window after both players combined to score the winning goal at the World Cup final.
Both attackers have remained important figures for Athletic Club and Barcelona respectively, and ******* nal would like to secure at least one of them this summer. Their quality and experience make them attractive options as the club looks to add more strength in attack.

Christos Tzolis has completed his move from Club Brugge to ******* nal, and the attacker admitted that he could hardly believe it when he first learned that the club was interested in signing him.
The forward enjoyed an outstanding season at Club Brugge, establishing himself as one of the leading performers in the Belgian Pro League. His impressive displays attracted interest from several top clubs during the summer, but once he became aware of ******* nal's interest, he made a move to London his priority.
Arsenal were convinced that Tzolis was the right player to strengthen their attacking options. After completing the sale of Leandro Trossard during this transfer window, they shifted their full attention towards securing the signing of the attacker.
The transfer has now been completed, and Tzolis will be part of ******* nal's attacking group for the new campaign. Speaking after the move, ******* nal Media quoted him as saying:
"I need some time to realise, I think!

Christos Tzolis became the most expensive transfer in Greek football history, when he signed for ***** nal this week.
To welcome the 24-year-old to the Premier League champions, let's take a look at the other Greek Gunners…
It's fair to say Giannis Tavlaridis doesn't have the legacy in England that he does in France.
Lille supporters affectionately nicknamed the defender 'Taureau' ('The Bull'), but ***** nal fans only caught brief glimpses of him, mostly in the League Cup.
Arsene Wenger became more willing to hand opportunities to young players after the move to the Emirates, so perhaps Tavlaridis was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

HNB are reporting that Club Brugge have had a bid of around €9m for AZ Alkmaar midfielder Peer Koopmeiners rejected. AZ have already seen one midfielder leave this summer, with the talented Sven Mijnans depart for Eredivisie champions PSV. They are hoping to receive a fee of around €17m for Koopmeiners, well above the €9m that Club Brugge initially bid. Koopmeiners is said to be keen on a move to Belgium and for Club Brugge he would provide a replacement for Aleksandar Stankovic, who returned to Inter, and Raphael Onyedika who is also likely to depart this summer.
Outside of loan spells with Excelsior and Almere City, Koopmeiners has spent his entire career with AZ. Since making his debut in 2020, he has played over 100 games for the club, scoring six goals. The previous two seasons have been the best of Koopmeiners career so far. During the 2024/2025 season he returned from a loan spell with Excelsior to play 53 games for AZ, scoring twice and providing seven ***** ists. Last season he played 50 games for AZ, scoring four goals and providing two ***** ists.
Club Brugge, after selling Christos Tzolis and Stankovic this summer, certainly have enough money to pay the fee AZ are asking for, but the club will likely try and bargain for a lower price.

Christos Tzolis signed a five-year contract at **** nal after completing his €40 million transfer from Club Brugge. The Greece international was a 2. Bundesliga top-scorer during his time at Fortuna Düsseldorf.
After an initial loan deal from Norwich City, Düsseldorf permanently signed the player for €3.5 million. However, their failure to win promotion to Bundesliga meant that they had to sell him for only €6.5 million to Club Brugge.
Tzolis scored 24 goals and **** isted a further 10 in only 37 games for Fortuna Düsseldorf. He continued his goal-scoring form with Club Brugge in the past two seasons, winning the “Player of the Season” accolade in the Jupiler Pro League last term.

Arsenal are actively ******* sing the market for attacking additions and one of the more intriguing possibilities now under discussion is Julian Alvarez. According to talkSPORT, the Gunners are alert to the chance of signing the Argentina international this summer, with early contacts already touching on creative deal structures involving Viktor Gyokeres.
The situation around Alvarez is developing quickly. He has reportedly told Atletico Madrid he wants to leave, with Barcelona described as his preferred destination. Atletico, however, are reluctant to sell to a direct LaLiga rival, especially after already rejecting an £86million offer and directing interested parties towards a £432m release clause. Real Madrid also failed to make progress, with Atletico said to have been angered by a £129m approach earlier in the window.

Against that backdrop, ******* nal have explored whether Gyokeres could be used as a makeweight in negotiations. At this stage, that appears to be no more than an exploratory concept. Atletico hold interest in the Sweden striker, but ******* nal have not yet decided whether they would sanction any sale, and talks over Alvarez remain at an early stage.
What is clear is that ******* nal's recruitment team are keeping several attacking tracks alive at once. Interest in Morgan Rogers continues, while positive discussions are also ongoing with Club Brugge over Greek winger Christos Tzolis. Those moves are understood to be separate from any attempt to land Alvarez, underlining the club's desire to add flexibility and variety in the final third after Leandro Trossard's £17million move to Besiktas was confirmed.

Several reports have linked ****** nal with a move for Christos Tzolis during the current transfer window following his outstanding season with Club Brugge last term.
The attacker enjoyed an excellent campaign, and his impressive goal return has made him difficult for clubs to overlook. Borussia Dortmund is also reported to be showing serious interest in securing his signature.
With Leandro Trossard believed to be close to leaving the club this summer, Tzolis appears to be closer than ever to a move to ****** nal. According to Sport Witness, ****** nal has made initial contact with Club Brugge regarding the attacker.
There has been considerable speculation surrounding the proposed transfer, but the clubs involved still need to reach an agreement before any deal can be completed. The report states that at least one contact has already taken place between ****** nal and Club Brugge as discussions continue over the player's future.
The reported interest from Borussia Dortmund underlines the growing demand for Tzolis after his performances last season. As one of the world's leading clubs, Dortmund represents an attractive option, yet the attacker is reportedly waiting for the opportunity to join ****** nal instead.

Christos Tzolis's proposed move to ***** nal is reportedly 'set to accelerate'.

Ben Jacobs notes on X (formerly Twitter) that the deal – potentially costing around £30m-35m – will have no impact on the Gunners' push to bring Morgan Rogers to north London.
This comes despite the Greek forward publicly suggesting he'd sign off on a transfer to a 'crazy team' like Liverpool.
Another day, another rival closing in on a move for a quality footballer – and this one potentially coming at an astonishingly low price in the current market.

In a recent interview with Voetbal Primeur, Greek journalist Dimitris Manakos claimed that **** nal are in pole position to land Club Brugge winger Christos Tzolis. It has been mentioned that the Gunners are eager to get a deal done for the Greek wide player this summer.
Tzolis had an excellent campaign at the Belgian club as he produced a series of impressive displays for them in the final third. The 24-year-old banged in 22 goals and earned 29 **** ists in 52 matches for Club Brugge last season on all fronts.
The Greek talent is currently one of the most talented wingers in his homeland. Thus, **** nal would do well to lure him to the Emirates Stadium this off-season.
His current contract at the Belgian club will run out in the summer of 2029, which could make it tough for the Gunners to sign him on the cheap later this year.

Not just Greenwood, Paixão, Nusa, or Tzolis. Gian Piero Gasperini’s new Roma vision also includes a different profile, less media-focused but perfectly aligned with the coach’s demands.
It’s Nikola Vlasic, the Torino attacking midfielder who has recently returned to the Giallorossi’s radar.
According to today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport, the Croatian international is one of Gasperini’s most admired players.
This isn’t just a last-minute suggestion, but a fondness rooted in past years, when the coach had already identified him as an ideal fit for his style of football.
Vlasic possesses many of the qualities Gasperini considers essential.
