Blockbuster Transfer on the Horizon! Arsenal Snatch Star from Juventus and Manchester United's Grasp

The 24-year-old winger featured in 52 matches across all competitions for the Belgian side last season, netting 22 goals and providing 29 assists. His stellar performances were instrumental in Club Brugge securing their 20th league title.

At Arsenal, he is set to replace Leandro Trossard on the left wing, following Trossard's €20 million move to Besiktas in Istanbul on Wednesday.

Tzolis makes his return to England after a two-season absence, having been a Norwich City player from 2021 to 2024. However, he spent two loan spells with Dutch club Twente and German side Düsseldorf, who bought him out of his contract for €3.5 million in July 2024 and immediately sold him to Brugge for €6.5 million.

The Greek international arrived in Belgium as the top scorer in the 2. Bundesliga with 22 goals and immediately made an impact at his new club. In addition to the league title, he also won the domestic cup and was named Player of the Season for the 2025/26 campaign. For Brugge, he played a total of 108 matches, scoring 43 goals and assisting 45 others. He also boasts 34 caps and nine goals for his national team.

Beyond Arsenal, Manchester United, Aston Villa, Juventus, and AS Roma were reportedly also vying for his signature.
