Arsenal have reached an agreement with Belgian champions Club Brugge for the signing of Greek winger Christos Tzolis in a deal worth £34 million, according to reports.
The transfer fee is expected to set a new Belgian Pro League record, surpassing all previous outgoing transfers from the division.
Tzolis is being lined up as Arsenal’s replacement for Leandro Trossard, who completed his move to Turkish giants Beşiktaş earlier this week, leaving manager Mikel Arteta in search of a new attacking option ahead of the 2026/27 season.
The 24-year-old enjoyed an outstanding campaign with Club Brugge, establishing himself as one of the Belgian league’s most exciting attacking talents. His pace, dribbling ability and eye for goal made him a key figure for the club, attracting interest from several top European sides before Arsenal moved to secure his signature.
According to Sky Sports News, the two clubs have now reached an agreement, with the transfer expected to be completed once the remaining formalities, including the player’s medical and personal terms, are finalised.
The move represents another significant investment by Arsenal as the Premier League side continue strengthening their squad in a bid to challenge for major honours both domestically and in Europe.
For Club Brugge, the sale marks a landmark moment, with the £34 million transfer becoming the highest fee ever received by a Belgian Pro League club.
Tzolis is expected to provide Arsenal with versatility across the front line, capable of operating on either wing while also offering an attacking threat in central areas. His arrival will help fill the void left by Trossard’s departure and add further competition to Arteta’s attacking options ahead of the new campaign.
If completed, the transfer will become one of the biggest deals of the summer transfer window and another statement signing by Arsenal as they prepare for the challenges of the 2026/27 season.
