- 兵工廠 sign Madueke
- Winger leaves 切爾西 after two-and-a-half seasons
- Gunners now focusing on Gyokeres deal
The Gunners have been on the lookout for a new winger this transfer window and were first linked with Madueke towards the end of June. Following positive talks with Chelsea and the player’s camp, they advanced on a deal and have now confirmed its completion.
Madueke becomes Arsenal’s fourth major signing of the summer, following on from Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard and fellow Chelsea star Kepa Arrizabalaga. Mikel Arteta is also hoping to wrap up deals for Cristhian Mosquera and Viktor Gyokeres in the coming days.
After two-and-a-half mixed seasons at Stamford Bridge, Madueke heads to the Emirates Stadium looking to kick his career into another gear. He scored 20 goals in 92 games for Chelsea, helping them win two trophies earlier this summer in the form of the 會議聯盟 和俱樂部 世界盃. The 23-year-old has also been capped seven times by the 英格蘭 senior team.
Arsenal are hoping to finalise deals for Mosquera and Gyokeres before they head off on a pre-season tour of Asia. They will face AC米蘭 and Newcastle 團結的 in Singapore before taking on rivals 托特納姆熱刺 香港的熱刺。
